Still trying to figure out what my offer will be, but as I do my research I notice most web sites like autotrader, edmunds, etc. list the base 2.5i w/CVT for MSRP of 23,990 (the manual trans. is 22,990). So why in New England is the MSRP $1000 higher on both, with the 2.5i base w/CVT 24,990? Should I be considering this profit to the dealer and figuring that into my offer?

Replying to: macdougal28 (Nov 06, 2009 7:32 am)  . So $24,990 sounds accurate. I noticed on edmunds that the invoice of the PZEV is actually higher than the MSRP - so don't factor them taking any money off this required add on. I hope that helps clear it up for you. Good luck again, please let us know how you make out. I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed that you can make a deal you are ultimately happy with

I emailed several dealerships in the MA area for a 3.6R Premium with audio upgrade. A few replied that there were no 3.6 in the New England area. Puzzling to say the least as Manchester, NH has three of them. I called to verify if they were available and they still are. Next a couple of dealers suggested I order one or try the 2.5 instead. One of them suggested a price of around $30k as "realistic." The MSRP is $30,685 and the invoice is $28,757. That is profit close to $2k! (including holdback) I replied that many are getting invoice price...I thought buying through the internet was supposed to be easier than showing up! |

| Today I went to either purchase or order an Outback from Huff Subaru in Wytheville, Va. I had been dealing with the internet manager who suggested I order since I didn't see anything in their inventory which I liked. A day or so ago I was informed that they now had one in stock like I wanted so I would not have to order. Immediately, I thought I was about to be the target of the old "bait and switch" technique. To my surprise, the car at the dealership had more options than I originally wanted, but they honored my original deal!!. There was no hassle, no outrageous add-ons, no pressure. It was the most pleasant car-buying experience I have ever had, and I came out of the dealership without having the feeling I had been" raped and pillaged". This dealership apparently wants to sell Subarus and they are not afraid to deal. So, if you live in nw-NC,ne-TN,sw--VA or southern WVa and are in the market for a Subaru, I suggest you contact them. | |
| I am looking to purchase a 2010 3.6Limited Outback. One dealer is offering it at their invoice price. Originally it was 700.00 over invoice. Is this a good deal? I have never owned a subie before, but this seems like a pretty nice SUV. | |

Replying to: hlt1634 (Nov 07, 2009 7:46 am) I would bite the hand the hand off of an offer at  invoice. But I would also check the added costs. Which state are you in? BG
