08 WRX w/ Prem Packg by akpak
Oct 01, 2008 (7:17 am)

I received an offer from a small Subaru dealer in NJ for a 2008 WRX w/ Prem Packg for $24k with 0% for 24 months. That's $100 below the invoice price for the base WRX! I should have jumped on it right. Except this guy only came back with that offer Monday night. I had gone home to NJ for the weekend and I was leaving Monday night because I had to work the next day. (I'd taken Monday off).
 
Now this was a great deal even considering that the better 09s were only weeks if not days away from going on sale. I don't think I'll get anything close to this deal on the new 09s or even on the 08s considering so few dealers in New England where I live even have them in stock.
 
I feel the opposite of buyer's remorse. Should I have stayed the extra few hours and jumped on that deal? Thoughts?

I have a feeling that the '09's might have a much better resale value.

Well, you'll pay more now, and probably get most of it back.
 
Buy the one you prefer. That matters more than a few bucks 7 years from now.

Yea, I'm starting to feel the same way too. The more I read about the '09s, the better I feel. It comes standard with a lot of things from the '08 prem package so even the base package might be enough. Plus, it's a MUCH better car.
And considering the economic climate and how bad car sales are doing, I think I might be able to pick up an '09 for a reasonable deal within a couple of months.

Hi There
I'm talking with the Fitzmall in Gaithersburg, MD, right now. Did you do any haggling at all with them? I sent them an email to see if they'd go lower if I pay in full up front, but I didn't know if that was kosher, since their prices are so low anyway
 
Thanks

They don't - it's a no-haggle concept, the whole point is that everyone pays the same price.
 
You can pay their lower "internet" price, but then you don't get the free oil changes that you get with their slightly higher normal pricing (about $300 or so extra).
 
I still think they're a good deal. They only charge a $99 processing fee and freight is included in their price. Those 2 things could add $1000 to your total if you go to a VA dealer.

Insane 2008 STI prices in SoCal! by jossw

I've been considering getting an 08 STI. Dealers here in SoCal are offering $9K off MSRP with 0% APR for 63 months. You can get a base STI for $26,000 with 0% for 63 months. I think that number will go down to $25K by the end of November.

Can you let me know which dealer in SoCal offered you $9k off a base model STI? Thanks.

$9K off by jossw

Basically any SoCal dealership will give you $8K off immediately. If you do some haggling and calling around I've found that most people will take off $9K. Dealerships include Santa Monica, South Coast, Timmons, Renick, etc. Subaru is giving all dealerships $5K for selling an 08 STI so it trickles down to the customer. The 0% APR is combined with the savings.
