Hi, I'm getting an offer of $16,200 (plus tax and tags) for a light flood damaged 2006 Legacy Limited Sedan (new), has <20 miles on the odo, in VA. I've checked the car out and driven it. No damage/rust/odors etc. No water anywhere in the engine/tranny/exhaust as far as I could tell. Dealer has done a good job cleaning whatever little water got in. But it comes *WITHOUT* manufacturer warranty (written off as total loss thru' insurance) and flood title. Is this worth it? What can typically go wrong with these cars (should I need service in next 50K miles)? Any advice appreciated....

Replying to: monit (May 28, 2006 2:07 pm) I got a quote for a '06 Legacy GT AWD LTD Sedan 5MT  $25K with destination charge included but before taxes. Is it a good deal? It has like 70 miles on it, but I usually like to get cars with < 20 on the odo. Please give your feedbacks. Thanks!

Just bought my first Subaru ever. I've been a Honda/Toyota guy for years but wanted an AWD car w/ great safety features and some toys too. It came w/ spoiler and compass/mirror and some add ons. I added splash guards and armrest extension. MSRP was $26,808. In South Jersey, dealers are giving $2,000 rebate and 0% financing for 24 months during June- never got a deal with both before! With 6% Jersey sales tax, tags, $1,500 trade in for a car w/ 140,000 miles, my bottom line price for the Legacy was $22,888. Most painless deal ever. Only had it a little more than a week- it handles like a toy. No observable defects  Hope the service dept. equals the buying experience. I just may now be a Subaru only guy.

If it was written off as a total loss, I'm skeptical about the claim of light damage. A lot can be hidden by a thorough detail job. With a funky title, even without the funky smell, it could be trouble. I would make sure you can get it financed and that you can get full coverage insurance for it. TMV on a certified, no stories '05 is 21K. TMV in "rough" condition, which means problems but clean title is 16,700. If you decide to take this on, I would want a much steeper discount for your hassle. You might see if your insurance agent could help you estimate what its worth. An insurance company probably has more experience dealing with cars of this kind than anyone else. |

All, I've been reading your messages for a few months now - and have found them a huge help. Here are my figures now: Cash Price of Car: 24495 Trade In: 3500 Tax: 1417.17 Title & Fees: 15 Total Due: 22427.17 Rebate: 2000 Final Amount: 20427.17 This car is the Legacy 2.5i Limited Sedan + the all-weather floor mats and auto-dimming rear-view mirror with homelink. I also got the 0.0% for 24 months, but instead opted for the 4.9% for up to 72 months (I took it at 60 months though). Hope this helps you all. I love this car. |

Are there any Canadian members here with buying experience to share? A friend is considering a 2.5i auto sedan in Vancouver, BC. Too bad invoice info is hard to come by in Canada. Thanks! |

Replying to: yogiowner (Jun 18, 2006 12:54 pm) If you're shooting for $20k, I'd say go for the Special Edition instead. No leather, but it comes with plenty of goodies and a bigger $2000 rebate. We just purchased an Atlantic Blue Pearl Legacy SE sedan for $18,900 (about $3500 below invoice) from Carter Subaru in Seattle. Comes with AC, power everything, CD, moonroof, power driver's seat, etc. We added subwoofer/amp and all-weather mats. Happy hunting and good luck! |
