Replying to: stoopy (May 31, 2009 8:10 am) I know part of this is the economy, but $4,500+ spread plus selling at full MSRP plus $489 dealer fees has finally taught us a lesson on staying with a dealer we have purchased 8 Subaru from in the last 10 years (we both have one as we go different directions to work). I know dealers are having a rough time, but they should try to do a little better with folks that have a long history with them. Times will get better, but not for at least two years, and my wife and I will remember to go to a different dealer, if we decide to purchase a Subaru again. If we sell it to a private buyer we will either go up North (New England) to buy a Subaru or try a different make. I really was taken back by the Sales Manager attitude and telling me I was arguing with him. Told him no, just that when a vehicle no longer holds its value why should I buy another one and I'd probably look at something else. He is new at this dealership and I don't think he will last long with HIS attitude. Just my 2¢ worth. I could mention a few other things, but won't as I've said enough. But when I say the next two years are going to be rough I mean ROUGH and I mean for everyone. We are not even close to being out of this economic mess we are in. |

Replying to: truestory (Jun 01, 2009 8:26 pm) Their Forester limited is not discounted much, at $25858, which is even higher than the outback limited. Hope to see some discount on the Forester, as it is more roomy, and more SUV-like. |

A dealership in our region claims to be selling all new cars at the Subaru MAAP (Minimum Allowable Advertised Price). I'm curious if any of you have run into this term during negotiations. Is it simply dealerspeak? Does the MAAP vary by region or dealer? Here's what they claim on their site: Buy any of our instock or order out new cars for 2% under invoice!! Subaru sets what they call MAAP. Minimum Allowable Advertised Price. St Cloud Subaru has priced all of our new cars at this price and them subtracted all available rebates. This price is clearly marked on all the windshilelds and is listed on our website New Car inventory. You can shop any subaru dealer in the United States and not find a lower price anywhere. This is the lowest price Subaru will let any dealer advertise!!!

Supposedly the $2K cashback on Outbacks ended yesterday. The Subaru website has not updated with any new offers. Does anyone know if they are continuing this? I was unable to make a decision this week so unfortunately couldn't take advantage of the offer. I have been getting quotes for a 2.5i base model with no options for a tad over $19K, but this was with the rebate.

Replying to: goldy74 (Jun 02, 2009 6:45 am) I read from a lot recent posts that folks are giving credence to dealer statements and numbers. You won't get a deal that way. Do your research, check your numbers, read the forums and be aggressive. They expect it. Just understand, they will take every possible dollar from you. It's the American way, there is nothing wrong with it, it's their job and they are very good at it. But you want a good deal right? otherwise why post here. So check back through this forum. There is some good empirical pricing information in previous posts, mine included. Benchmark ad unit price Update: Outback 9DG LTD less than 23k Outback 9DD SE less than 20k. As you can see, these advertised prices are way below invoice. There is no MAAP

Replying to: glitch1 (Jun 02, 2009 7:58 am) Does anyone know if they are continuing this? Sure they will. They have hundreds of 09's they have to sell pronto. A new incentive will be along in a while. Using the expired 2k cashback number, your quote was about $2500 too much.

Replying to: glitch1 (Jun 02, 2009 10:26 am) I see you are located in NW. Who were you talking to? There was an 09 Outback Basic 2.5i advertised for less than 17k recently at Carr Subaru Beaverton. Also check Hannah's ads. Click on my user name for a list of previous posts - that info is in there somewhere.
