Finally, I bought the new one. The dealer agreed to sell tht car to me at $1400 below invoice, so after rebate it is $3400 below invoice. Not bad at all!

Everybody posting here is getting great deals! Way to go, all, and enjoy! I've always thought you get a lot with Subaru... at these prices, it's really an amazing bang for the buck.
 
Jerry, I think you paid the same amount under invoice that I did when I bought my Special Edition sedan a month ago. The Special Edition trim ads even more value to the dollars spent, I think. These are great cars. Average new vehicle sales price is somewhere around $27k, last I read. Paying around $20 grand for a car of this quality (and with the top safety ratings) almost feels like stealing.

It was after I read other people's post when I knew what is a good price for the car. So when the dealer said that he could offer me $1000 below invoice, I would have jumped all over it if I had not came accross this forum.
 
But I do notice the huge difference between different dealers. The highest internet quote I received was about $2000 higher than the lowest one. So do shop around, and never give up! BTW, I am in Ohio.

Hi, just picked up my 2006 Subaru Legacy SE wagon, Atl Blue with Taupe Interior.
Options: Splash Guards and all Cargo nets (4) in the rear trunk area.
Total out the door cost was $21,500 including tax and tags.
 
Breakdown:
MSRP: $24973 (Note: cargo nets were thrown in at no cost, did not reflect in the sales price).
Discount: $2876.24
Less: $2000 rebate
Selling price: $20096.24
Taxes: $1109.76
Dealer Fee: $99
Reg/title: $20
MD tire recycle fee: $4

Excellent salesman, very courteous and professional. No pressure/gimmicks. Even let me do a full test drive yesterday. Customary full tank of gas provided. Bought at Herb Gordon Subaru in Silver Spring (Briggs Chaney Rd auto park).
I took advantage of the 'free money' (0% for 24 months, no processing fees here) for part of the purchase price. Why not?
Service dept. let me pick up the auto dimming mirror/compass + homelink kit for $175 delivered outside the deal.

Atlantic Blue Pearl w/taupe... same as my SE sedan. I recommend Scotchguarding the interior thoroughly ASAP.
 
Congrats!

Already done yesterday - two coats!! Now I'm trying to figure out how to integrate my Garmin StreetPilot C320 unit in the cubbyhole above the radio/CD player. I've seen posts in the legacygt forums on how to do this, but the Garmin may prove challenging since the dimensions are bigger than the Magellan unit described in the forum. Also want to disable the DRLs - procedure for this is on the forum, so this should be no sweat.

I have a c320 as well. I think they fit in the bin at the top of the Forester's dash, but those may be bigger.
 
If you figure it out, let me know. I may try to integrate mine when I get a new car.

I'm interested in the Sedan SE by luvmbooty

I'm looking for a sedan with great crash test scores, good fuel economy, a roomy interior (have 2 kids age 3 and 9), and at a reasonable price (around 20k, under if possible).
 
IIHS.org gave it a GOLD rating.
 
EPA rates city 23 and highway 30.
 
EPA passenger vol. 93 cu ft.
 
Are most Legacy's selling around invoice? Has anyone seen an SE with no options? Even at invoice I would be pushing my budget.
 
Was thinking of considering the VW Jetta Value Edition or Honda Civic EX. Should I consider anything else?

Jetta VE comes with cheap plastic wheel covers, and reliability is a big question mark IMO.
 
Civic is a solid choice, but demand is so high some people are paying MSRP. $19,810 at Browns Honda, locally. That's actually more than a Legacy SE locally from fitzmall.com, which runs $19,557 (both automatics).
 
That's crazy. The Civic is a better value below $18k.
 
The Legacy gives you AWD and 17" alloys, plus a moonroof.
 
This is what I call a no-brainer.

I would agree 100% with juice. I got the Legacy SE wagon for a shade over $20K + TTL (see post #375). I would not even consider a Jetta because of reliability issues (nor a Passat, even if I had the money to spare). In terms of value, total cost to own, reliability and depreciation, a no-brainer....plus the added 4WD....go for the Subaru
