That's pretty much invoice minus rebate minus most of the holdback....yeah I think you should hold out for a better price, the dealer must be ripping you off somehow.

I'm sure that is tongue in cheek, but one of the dealers in my local area was offering the same car for $3800 off off MSRP all through August and September..
 
I don't think it really matters if this dealer is losing money on that car... If the car won't sell at that price, then they will have to lower it... or keep it for a lovely trophy.. Once the '06 models come out, that car is depreciating on their lot, the same as it would in someone's driveway..
 
It is a decent price, but nothing that hasn't been available for the last few months...

The '06's are out and selling better than the 2005's, though some people like the old style better.

Good Price for 2006 WRX wagon? by saabski
Dec 05, 2005 (4:14 pm)

Hello all,
 
I did not end up getting the 2005 WR Blue wagon as I discussed before. However, another dealer from neighboring city is offering 2006 base WRX in WR Blue (color that I like) for $23,645. He is also offering Limted starting at $26,200. I could really care less about auto dimming mirrors and security sesor on 2006, since they come equipped with the engine immobilizer. Is this fair price for 2006 base WRX wagon with no options? Edmunds TMV is about at $23,700. Also, this car yet from another city nearby...do you usually pay dealers to bring vehicle from outside their inventory?
 
Any thoughts and feedback would be appreciated.

Actually, if your car is at another dealer a few cities away, your dealer should have no problem doing a dealer swap, or dealer trade with them. I was looking for a 2005 a while back, i'm in central florida, and my dealer was willing to pull in a silver outback sport from Atlanta Georgia, no cost. anything else, i'd have to pay freighting fees.
 
is your 2006 wrx base model still the wrx, and not the TR? because if it's the regular WRX, i think thats reasonable. i think you may do better, but then again i dont know much about finding a good price online. the TR should go for less. at least with the small amount of research i've been doing.

I'd be amazed if STis are moving strongly enough to warrant MSRP. Then again, I'm in MN where my dealer has been camped on them for a while. Check out www dot subaru dot net.
 
As for the 2006 WRX Wagon questions - there is no TR wagon and the 2006 should be selling better because it has the newer, more powerful engine than the 2005 with the 2.0L.
 
Get some quotes and ask for specific price components. Forget list/MSRP. Ask to see their cost, existing incentives, holdbacks, etc. and work from there. Any dealer not willing to do this is not worth doing business with.

This story gets even more interesting...Subaru dealer in my town called me yesterday (I had originally driven some 2005s with them), and offered a 2006 Aspen White WRX Limited wagon for $25,300! This does include security system sensor, auto dimming mirrors and subwofer, and destination. That's whopping $3K off the MSRP. Dealer in another city confirmed that $23,475 for base 2006 WRX wagon is including destination. But after seeing that a fully loaded 2006 can be had for mere $2K more, I am tempted despite my hatred for white exterior color. What's going on at Subaru? Are they in trouble or something? I guess it's because the WRX redesign is only about a year away. If my trade in is resonable, I may bite the bullet and go for the Limited...

2006 WRX sport wagon, $220 under invoice by sanfranciscan

2006 WRX sport wagon, $220 under invoice
 
Here is another price point, pretax: $25,200. (That was $23,140 car + $360 short shifter, installed + $1700 gold plus plan)
 
Yesterday, here in the SF Bay Area, I bought a 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX sport wagon (the cloth interior, not the leather) for $220 under the Edmunds invoice price for the car itself.
 
Since it was a base model with no options, I got the short shifter installed for another $360, which was $135 over edmunds invoice of $225. It was $15 over edmunds MSRP for that option as well. Oh well.
 
For an extended warrantee or service plan, I got the 7/100K mi, 0 deductible gold plus plan for $1700. That was supposedly dealer cost. The Gold Plus plan for turbo has MSRP listed here(http://www.rushneck.subarusdc.com/en_US/f_AddedSecurity_1.chtml
for $2710.

Any thoughts regarding the above? (replacing my Acura TL-S, nice car but starting to suck my soul, ie front wheel drive, automatic)
Also, any more thoughts about what people are paying in Northern CA?
 
I've been reading as much of the old posts as I could get through before posting, good discussions!
 
thanks in advance for thoughts.
