the 08 brochures say the extended warranty only applies to cars in the states where PZEV is mandated

They seem to be few & far between. My dealer in Seattle has one in stock and I stumbled upon one online at Camelback in Phoenix.

2008 Legacy GT - $28300 by a4b5

Just thought I'd share the details of my recent purchase from Luther White Bear Lake Subaru in MN. Overall a very positive experience, with what I think is a reasonable price. I could probably have done better if I'd been willing to haggle more, but the price I arrived at was painless.
 
'08 Legacy GT
Automatic Transmission
All Weather Floor Mats
Spoiler
 
MSRP = $30884
 
Purchase Price = $28300 + tax & title. Note that this is after the $750 rebate.
 
No trade in to complicate matters; just a straight sale.

Yup, sounds like a good price. Nice car, by the way.

I am looking to buy a 2008 Legacy Special Edition (auto transmission) in New York. Can anyone give me some advice on what a good price should be for this car?
 
The only option I am considering adding is the auto-dimming mirror with compass.
 
The dealer I went to has a sticker price of $22,600. This price includes any delivery/destination charges. I assume the only other costs would be sales tax and DMV fees.
 
Also, I know there is a $1000 cash back or low-financing deal from Subaru. Since I need to finance the car, what would be the better option to choose?
 
Any advice or tips will be appreciated.
 
Thanks.

Invoice for a Legacy SE automatic w/emissions for NY requirements is $21,400 including destination fee. Take off another $1000 for the rebate to get $20,400, which is a good point to set as the highest you'll pay. The dealer should have another $1000 or so in factory-to-dealer incentives to play with, so you could see an offer somewhere around $19,500.
 
A good strategy is to get e-mail quotes from four or five different dealerships' internet sales dept. Take the best two offers and see if there's any reason to go with the higher of the two offers (free loaner cars, more convenient, better customer service, etc.). If there's a compelling reason for you to go with a dealer that offers a higher quote, ask them if they'll match the lowest quote. Most will, so it certainly doesn't hurt to try.
 
Arrange your financing with a local credit union or bank before you set foot in the dealership. Often you'll be able to come close to any special financing offered by the dealer, and sometimes the dealer will be able to beat the bank's financing. This extra step would make it financially worthwhile for you to take the rebate in lieu of special Subaru financing, in most cases.
 
So here's the ideal outcome: price around $19,500 (after $1000 rebate) AND a reasonably low finance rate, whether it's from Subaru or your local bank.
 
Good luck!

Factory Rebate vs 2.9% Financing by zenprofit

In NJ thru 9/4/07 there is a $1,500 or 2.9% financing Subaru-to-Buyer deal:
 
2.9% FINANCING ON ALL 08 SUBARU FORESTER MODELS
Cannot be combined with any other incentive. Financing for well-qualified applicants only. Length of contract is limited. Subject to credit approval, vehicle insurance approval and vehicle availability. No down payment required. See participating dealers for details. Must take delivery from dealer stock by September 4, 2007.

 
CUSTOMER CASH ON 08 SUBARU FORESTER MODELS
Now through September 4, 2007 - 08 FORESTER models are available with Customer Cash. Must take delivery from dealer stock by September 4, 2007. See your participating dealer for details. Cannot be combined with any other incentives.
 
$1,500 Customer Cash on 08 FORESTER 2.5 X models

 
On a 08 Forester 2.5X there is a $2,000 Factory Rebate, bringing the Premium Package down to $1,500.
 
I am planning to put $8,000 down and take 48 months to pay. I am already qualified for the lowest interest rate.
 
Shouldn't my dealer be lowering the sticker price another $1,500 in addition to the Prem Pkg rebate OR offer the 2.9%? He is offering $500 and 6.9%.
 
I am wrong or is he trying to pull a fast one?
