I just posted on getting a new 2004. You might ask around and see if there are any left that someone would trade around with your dealership...

'06 is the face-lift; your 04 was a deal, yes.

automatic with cargo tray/armrest ext/splash guard/mirror w/homelink/rear bumper cover/all weather mats.
 
List 29429, got it for 24800+TTL. That's more than 2k below invoice. Not much bargaining needed, I test drove almost everything there made by Subaru except STI. Salesman was very knowledgeable. He mentioned the B9 base will start at 30k, and the 3rd row seat is definitely not for adult
 
I found that the TMV of Edmunds and Carsdirect were a bit off.
 
Been looking to get an Outback XTLTD 5EAT, just can't justify spending 4k more for an Outback. For performance, Legacy GT is the choice; for functional and bang for the buck, FXT is the answer, at least for me.
 
Thank you all

Help choosing a color! by hillfla

Hi -
 
I am in the middle of a deal to order a new 2005 XT from my dealer. He says he'll order me one however I want and it will arrive in mid-April. And if the rebates are not there - then he will refund my money and I can walk away. I am seriously considering this. I think I want a white one but there are none to be had around here (St Louis area) and he could not find any within a 7 state area! He said white is the most popular.
 
Anyways - to get to my question. Can I get some feedback from this forum on colors? I am considering white or silver. I currently have a silver car and I love the way it hides the dirt. Does white show or hide dirt? And having not seen a "real" white one - its tough for me to know for sure how great the Forester looks in white? I think it would look sharp in white with the XT's black interior.
 
Any and all comments sure would be appreciated!
Thanks!

IMO silver does the best job of hiding dirt with white a close 2nd. Neither color is going to exactly stand out in a crowd but then they won't attract unwanted attention from law enforcement officials when your foot gets a little heavy on the FXT's gas pedal

I have a white Miata, and I would not recommend that color. It stains too easily, a simple leaf falling on the car when it's wet causes a tea stain.
 
Pollen looks yellow.
 
The only time it's good is when there is snow/salt on the road, and even then only the first day.
 
Go for silver if you want low maintenance.

Thank you both very much for your inputs. I am definately swayed toward silver now. And it honestly makes my purchase easier, because there are two silver ones within 100 miles of my town. Only one problem with both of them, neither one has an armrest extension. Does anyone know if that is something that can be ordered and installed at the dealers?
 
Cheers!

You can install it in less than 5 minutes with a screw driver and two screws that come with it. Trust me if I can do it anyone can... Good Luck... Matt

Can you share with us the price request you used in your fax attack for the XS LL Bean Forester? Was it for an automatic or manual?
Thanks.

I am shopping for the same car in the NYC/ Long Island Area. The best price I found was 25,588, plus tax, minus the 1300 rebate and add various fees.
 
I am told that this would work only until Feb 28th.
 
I wonder if the March Rebates will be better?
 
ANYONE have any Ideas at all?
