#592 of 2760 Re: Bought a new Forester today [elf1972] by p0926 Mar 13, 2005 (5:51 am)
Replying to: elf1972 (Mar 12, 2005 3:46 pm) From the previous post, it might appear that you paid significantly more for your Forester but that's not necessarily true. The dealer can either give you a great deal on the new vehicle or on your trade-in but never both. So if you got a good deal on your trade then you probably did alright. You certainly got a much better deal than the poor owners (like me) who bought their Foresters when there wasn't a rebate!   -Frank
#593 of 2760 Oh and congratulations by p0926 Mar 13, 2005 (5:55 am)
To all the new Forester owners!!! Now you know firsthand why Consumer Reports picked the Forester as the Best Overall Small SUV!   -Frank
#594 of 2760 Prices by ateixeira Mar 14, 2005 (8:49 am)
elf: I think you did fine, congrats. Enjoy your Subie.   adnil: your price is also fine.   I cross shopped fitzmall.com (Rockville and Gaithersburg) and they quote $18,485, add $99 processing, $70 for tags, and then 5% tax and I get to $19,586.   You're doing almost $300 better, so go for it.   -juice
#595 of 2760 Re: Another quote--LLBEAN at $22,450 [p0926] by dognut Mar 15, 2005 (8:27 am)
Replying to: p0926 (Mar 09, 2005 8:21 pm) I live in New England. There are hundreds of XS and LL Beans around the dealers. There are even some 2004 XTs still available. I can choose from many dealers in the area. I will wait until April to see what the rebates are then! Replies to this message: once_for_all (Mar 15, 2005 8:59 am)

Replying to: dognut (Mar 15, 2005 8:27 am) you guys are getting smoking deals. My '03 XS MT(new model year) with an $800 extended warranty was $22.8 before taxes. It had some added features (armrest, air filtration, tweeters, rear bumper, rubber mats, chrome exhaust) but if 2 years later the price is $1,000 less I would say these are bargains.   John
#597 of 2760 Forester X @ Invoice by bluewolf Mar 17, 2005 (8:56 am)
Local dealer will do Invoice minus $1700 rebate over the phone. I see some people get deals below invoice and that the X is a loss leader. Is there a good chance if I actually go to the dealer in person he will drop a few hundred below invoice?   The Forester is one of those rare cars I just can't find anything negative about - everybody seems to love theirs!   Good to know about the climate control being problematic. I would like 4 wheel disc brakes and heated seats, but I'm not sure it's worth another $1800 over the X model.

Replying to: bluewolf (Mar 17, 2005 8:56 am) yep, they are great cars.   Wait til you see the slotted "umbrella" storage in the back. Works great for a 24" chain pipe wrench that doesn't fit in my tool box.   Last tank of gas 28.4 mpg.   John Replies to this message: ateixeira (Mar 17, 2005 10:14 am)

Replying to: once_for_all (Mar 17, 2005 9:59 am) Fits my torque wrench, too.   -juice

Replying to: bluewolf (Mar 17, 2005 8:56 am) its more than heated seats and 4 wheel discs. The alloys are super! easy to clean, and they don't break ur back during rotation. The 6 cd/cassette is useful.   I didn't want the package either at the time, but I have greatly enjoyed the heated seats so it was money well spent IMO. Resale value should be $500 to $1,000 more for the XS.   John
#601 of 2760 Lookin for fair SE dealer by groovinpinky Mar 17, 2005 (5:06 pm)
Hello all, I am planning to buy my first Subaru next weekend. I feel confident I have done my research on the cost, and am looking forward to zooming around in a Forester with my dog. However, looking through these posts I am noticing not many individuals from the South, or at least I have seen no mention. Could someone help with suggestion of a fair dealer in the SE region? Preferrably, TN., MS., or LA. Thanks! Replies to this message: p0926 (Mar 18, 2005 7:50 am)
