OK, I took it. Bird Road Subaru of Miami sold me a white 2.5i w/mirror compass and wheel locks for 22031 plus tax, title, and state doc fees for a total out the door price of 23566. This was by far the best offer out there besides Fitzgerald AutoMall who came close.

Local dealer has a couple of low mileage 2008 Outback wagon 2.5i autos. How much should I offer for these? Should I be concerned about these? Seems odd that some used 2008's show up.

I think the '08s started coming in March of last year so maybe the previous owners were people who just have to have a new car every year. Check the VIN on Carfax and make sure you know what you are getting. Very worth the 30 bucks!

ckalola,
The Cars101.com site lists the limited 2.5i invoice at 26265 for non-california buyers. Subtract 1000 or 1500 depending on the rebate available in your area and either way, it looks like a fair deal as long as you get it in writing that it no other dealer fees will be added on besides tax and title. Nothing like saying yes and then getting your contract and an extra 799.50 added on for "dealer prep" or whatever.
 
A few years ago I bought a minivan and that tactic was used. They said they would then split it. I gave them my cel phone # and said call only if you can agree to delete it altogether otherwise I'm continueing my search. They called later that day.
Good luck!

They could be program/loaner cars, too.
 
They should be worth at least 10% less than a new one is worth. Any smaller discount and you're better off buying new.

I purchased a new '08 2.5i auto in Seattle for $21,750 (no options other than an auto-dimming mirror) in October. When I was finally able to sell it, I managed to get $21,300 for it in Alaska, which was $1,000 less than I expected going in. While that was my fault for not better forecasting where the economy was headed, the total cost of ownership was still no more expensive than the 1-way airline tickets for my family back to Alaska would have been. My car had about 7500 miles at the time of sale, was absolutely immaculate, fully winterized for Fairbanks, came with all records (including a mileage log), and I had it in to a dealer several times to work out interior rattle problems so the new owner would not have to deal with them.
 
All told, the new owner received a screaming deal and I thoroughly enjoyed owning it, even if it was for a short while.
 
Tough to say why these others are for sale, but there are many possible reasons. If they have a clean CarFax and are still under warranty (less than 36,000 miles), then they should be decent bets barring obvious abuse.

A guy I work with just bought a program/loaner 2.5i this weekend from Carter, the biggest dealer here in Seattle. When he went to see what they had for stock, he was surprised to find they had 18 loaners for sale. They told him they would give him the best deal on the oldest one in inventory; to hear him tell it, the oldest one (06 w/15K) happened to be in the best condition. Claims he paid way under book, etc. Anyhow, he's happy...it replaces a Loyale wagon he bought in '93!

Sounds like a deal.
 
I came close to a lightly used 06 Tribeca, and it was probably a program car.
 
We ended up getting a new minivan for the sheer space it offered.

We got the 24888(total vehicle price) + tax + 50 (doc)+200(licence)= 27520
  
Not sure if it is a good deal or not.
