#578 of 2755 Re: NY Add-ons and options [rxman01] by p0926 Mar 05, 2005 (10:09 am)
Replying to: rxman01 (Mar 05, 2005 5:10 am) I couldn't do without the bumper cover as it protects the bumper from my dog's claws when he jumps in and out (not necessarily as effective with all dogs). It also protects the bumper when loading heavy/bulky objects (think Home Depot runs).   IMO the "brush guard" is purely cosmetic and looks silly but then I think that everytime I see a brush guard on any SUV in an urban/sububan setting.   The rear diffy protector might come in handy if you'll be going any futher off-road than where a gravel road will take you.   If you include the optional equipment as part of the total vehicle price, you can usually get invoice price on most options and if so, that will be your best deal.   -Frank
#579 of 2755 L.L. Bean to good to pass up? by dognut Mar 07, 2005 (8:27 am)
Planning on waiting for the updated 06 this summer. Stopped by a dealer Sun. and saw a 05 LLBean on the lot. Decided to give it a ride. MSRP is $27,000. No extras added. Manager wants to unload and will sell it to me for $22,450. What to do, what to do?????????? Isn't this deal to good to pass up? Or should I wait for what I would really love--a new 06? How much more do you think this would end up costing me? When do you think they will appear on the lots? Thanks for your opinions.

Usually a new model year will cost about $1500 extra for a while, definitely past the time the current year models are gone.   Go for the bargain, the changes seem minor.   -juice

The Subaru web site shows that LL Bean vehicles have a Starting Price more than $32K. How is this one $27K and seling for $22.5K?   I would love to buy one for under $25K.   Jim
#582 of 2755 Beanies by ateixeira Mar 08, 2005 (7:43 am)
$32k must be an Outback LL Bean, that's an H6 engine and a different vehicle entirely. They sell for close to $30k.   $27k is probably the MSRP for the Forester LL Bean, loaded up. Subtract rebates and go to invoice-level prices and you might get to $22.5k I guess.   -juice

Dewey Griffin Subaru in Bellingham, WA gave me this quote:   $20,231.15 (including rebate) for a manual tranny 2005 Forester X pretty much loaded: premium speakers, tweeters, subwoofer/amplifier, cd changer, differential protector, armrest extension, crossbars, side cargo nets, tow hitch, all-weather mats, and cargo tray.   I feel like this is a good quote, provided they treat me right on my trade. Am I correct? Replies to this message: forestercurt (Mar 11, 2005 12:33 pm)

My bad. Should read the title of the thread.
#585 of 2755 Another quote--LLBEAN at $22,450 by dognut Mar 09, 2005 (7:52 am)
Went to another dealer and got the exact same quote. Now I think I'll wait a month or two and see how far they come down just before the 06 appears! Any guesses if they drop the price another thousand? Replies to this message: p0926 (Mar 09, 2005 8:21 pm) dognut (Mar 15, 2005 8:27 am) once_for_all (Mar 15, 2005 8:59 am)

Replying to: dognut (Mar 09, 2005 7:52 am) A lot depends on how many are left on the lot. If there's only a couple then I wouldn't count on it. Also, once they sell that's it, so if you've got your eye on I'd go ahead and get it.   -Frank Replies to this message: dognut (Mar 15, 2005 8:27 am) once_for_all (Mar 15, 2005 8:59 am)
#587 of 2755 LL Bean by ateixeira Mar 10, 2005 (10:17 am)
Checked the local dealer and that's right on target, I doubt you'll do significatly better than that.   -juice
