Subaru has several VIP partners.
If you become a member of Leave No Trace (www.lnt.org) you can buy a new Subaru at invoice. Mmebership prices start at only $15. The down side is, you must be a LNT member for at least 6 months to qualify for the VIP program pricing.
I have purchased 3 Subarus through the VIP program. It's great! You are told to contact a specific individual at your local Subaru Dealer. He tells you to pick out a Subaru, shows you the invoice, and you pay the invoice price plus tax, license and documentation fees. No haggling. The only variable is the value of your trade-in. If you have no trade-in, you just drive away smiling.

Is Orangelebaron here? by bkramer

I saw you purchased your LL Bean at Grand Prix in Hicksville. How has your buying experience been? Would you mind disclosing your purchase price before tax and title? I have had the same experience as you. I liked Metric but their price is high. You can e-mail me if you'd prefer not to disclose it in a public forum. Thank you

VIP program and rebates by spindoctor
Feb 12, 2005 (7:30 pm)

Does anyone know if rebates will become available in the near future? Also, if I buy on the VIP program will I get the rebate as well? Can I get the low finance deal along with the VIP price? Just sent away for my VIP certificate today, and will be buying the L.L. Bean model in Champagne Gold. If people are paying less than invoice price without the VIP program what is the purpose of going through all the hassle of joining an organization and waiting 6 months to buy?

VIP is good for models that are in demand, especially in regions where prices are higher.
 
You do keep the rebates. We used VIP for our Legacy.
 
But the best part was the red carpet treatment, you get their best salesperson and no nonsense.

VIP program vs negotiating by tibbons
Feb 19, 2005 (9:25 am)
Reply
I am a VIP member through the ACA. Am I better off negotiating a price on my own? Some buyers here say they are getting a few hundred dollars off the invoice price. If I use the VIP program, aren't I only getting the invoice price plus tax/title? Can you negotiate the dollar amount when using the VIP program?
 
Thanks!

VIP price is invoice (some areas have advertising fee on invoice) minus any dealer or customer incentives.
 
With VIP, it's a quick stress free transaction. It's up to you if it's worth the hassle to same a few more dollars.

2.5i Outback (Automatic) price quote by gmode71
Feb 24, 2005 (12:30 pm)
Reply
I just received a quote on an automatic 2.5i Outback with auto-dimming compass mirror, rear cargo net, rear gate bar, and all-weather floor mats for $24,240 (according to the dealer in NY this is $300 below invoice price).
I was hoping for a price closer to $23,000, based on reading some of your messages. Please share with me any NY area price information you have received or strategies to assist me with getting a lower price.
Has anyone used fightingchance.com for pricing information and strategies, and if so what was your experience/what information did you get?
 
Thanks!
