Replying to: tazman8 (May 10, 2008 5:12 pm) Even though I work on Subies, I still get the extended Subaru Gold warranty. Well worth the money, considering how expensive repair costs are these days.   -mike Replies to this message: ateixeira (May 12, 2008 9:42 am)

Replying to: tazman8 (May 10, 2008 5:12 pm) I wouldn't pay more than 2/3 the "list " price. you may be able to even do better than that.

Replying to: paisan (May 11, 2008 8:52 am) I agree, mechanics' labor runs $95 per hour and higher around me.   You also get roadside assistance for the duration of the warranty. We liked that.
#1620 of 1624 "08 2.5i Outback Prices by jtn1 May 13, 2008 (2:23 pm)
I got the offer of $20,700 for the 2.5i Auto w/out any additional options. I am still a month away from buying but don't know if prices will drop even further as the 2009 are arriving towards the end of June?
#1621 of 1624 New Outback Limited Price Paid by craigl May 15, 2008 (1:02 pm)
The ride:   An '08 2.5i Limited Outback with VDC and popular equipment group A (auto dimming mirror, compass, and security system shock sensor, whatever that is)   The price:   MSRP: 28,644 Invoice: 25,738 (or actually 26,738 - 1000 rebate) Paid: 25,400 and dealer threw in window tinting. It also came with 2 year/24k scheduled maintenance package, but I think Subaru is including that will all new vehicles, at least in my region.   The skinny:   My price was decent, not great, but I concentrated more on the trade--a gas eating premium fuel burning low demand SUV--and a bottom line goal of $18,500 before TTL. (I'd gotten trade in quotes from Carmax and two other dealers before going in, so I knew it'd be a struggle to get what I wanted for the SUV.)   I did better on the trade than I expected--I wasted a couple of hours at another Subie dealer the day before who quoted 1600 less for the trade and steadfastly refused to budge. But I did worse on the price of the new car than I wanted. Still, I hit my target, so I reckon it's all good.
#1623 of 1624 Question About Buying '05-'07 2.5 Outback by coloradokate Jun 14, 2008 (10:47 am)
We are looking at used '05-'07 2.5i Outbacks. I was wondering, are we better off getting an older one (with expired warranty) or a later model (with active warranty) if the later years were registered as rental cars on Carfax? As a general rule, should we avoid cars that were rentals? Thanks in advance, Coloradokate Replies to this message: ateixeira (Jun 15, 2008 7:39 am)

Replying to: coloradokate (Jun 14, 2008 10:47 am) I'm not positive but I think any car used as a rental (or any other commercial duties) may void the warranty anyway, so I'd look at non-rentals.
