Hi gang. I thought I would get some opinions about options on a Legacy GT. Has anyone gotten the short throw shifter? was it worth the money. I tried an STI to see what it was like, but hear they're really not the same. Although the throws were shorter, there was a lot more effort. Also I've been looking at the taupe interior figuring this would be cooler in the Summer. But I'm starting to wonder whether I should just deal with the hotter interior, because the charcoal will hide dirt so much better. I'll probably spring for the extended armrest. And yes I think it costs too much. I qualify for the VIP program (IMBA) which should mean invoice (plus advertising fees I was told). A friend said he'd gotton under invoice recently on an Outback 2.5i. Are people doing better than invoice on GTs? All opinions appreciated. -Barry |

My salesperson when I bought my Legacy GT Limited wagon, who owns a GT limited sedan, said he'd driven one with the short throw shifter and thought it wasn't worth the money. He advised against it. My car is regal blue with the charcoal interior, and even in a Maryland summer the AC was strong and the interior didn't get too hot. Also, with four kids, it doesn't show dirt as quickly and cleans up well. (My wife's Toyota van with a beige interior can't stay clean for 10 minutes.)

I just bought an 05 Legacy GT limited for $300 over invoice in tulsa, ok. Not a lot of Subies around here and only one dealer in tulsa. The nearest dealer is in Oklahoma City and they are much more eager for business and upfront with pricing. Would not recommend dealing with the Tulsa dealer until you have a price from Oklahoma City to make them meet. I got an email from the dealer in Dallas the day after I bought my car that they would sell any legacy on the lot for invoice, but really it was worth $300 not to have to make the drive. Considering above comments I may have to sell the car in CO! I wonder if Subaru will have 6 speed mt for 2006. This would be a great addition and worth waiting for.

Replying to: dsattler (Jan 31, 2005 8:56 am) Now I'm wondering when the 2006s show up. The day before I sold the Audi, one of the dealerships called me to let me know that they can now do $500 under invoice. I figure there's usually a reason dealers/salespeople start handing out gifts. Thanks again for the info. |

| The consensus opinion is that they'll arrive in June. Chances are Subaru is offering dealers some incentives to clear out the 2005s. | |

I recently purchased a 2005 Legacy sedan and wanted to mention what a great experience I had with Quirk Subaru, Bangor,ME. Quirk, met my price and above all were honest and no pressure. This was a refreshing change from other dealers I have purchased cars from. I highly recommend them. Great job!

| Purchased an 2.5i sedan this weekend at Jack Miller in Olathe, Kansas. Only options were the spoiler and autodimming mirror with compass. I got an offer for $400 under invoice after my first email contact. I went to the dealership the next day and they honored their quote with no added fees or hassle. I did have to haggle a bit on my trade in, but I got fair value. Got the 2.9% financing with no problems. I would recommend them if you are interested in getting quotes over the internet. They were very responsive. | |
