OKay, raybear I will keep working on getting the price lower. We are paying cash and have only been offerered the $1000.00 rebate at 2 of the dealers and 2 others only mention the $500. I really hate this game. Wish me luck!

You may want to consider the financing in lieu of rebate, it's 1.9% on 60 months now.   The easiest way to get pricing is right here on Edmunds; just submit a request to those dealers in your area and let them come back with a reply. Perhaps the market in your area is higher than it is here; maybe the dealers have low doc fees, I don't know.
#53 of 2119 Edmonds pricing / raebear by somethingelse Jan 09, 2004 (4:57 pm)
Thats were I have gotten three of the prices and one I actually visited a dealership to see the car. Haven't driven it yet. Spoke to one on the phone and have gone back and forth via internet with the other two. They all have been pretty nice to deal with so far. We definately are not going to have payments, will go the cash route. At the one dealership I went to we could get the $500. rebate if we financed and they were offering 0.0 financing. They did not however offer the $1000.00 rebate. I'm located in the Sacramento, California area. Actaully I'm closer to Lake Tahoe. Anyway, thanks for the advise and I'm going to try and drive one this week-end. Does this car only take high octane gas? thanks again for you time raybear

Premium fuel is recommended, but it only requires regualr. I read that it makes 212hp on 93 octane, 208hp on 87 octane, but most people won't feel the difference.   If you wait until after the Chicago auto show, the 2005 Outback will makes its debut, and discounts may be easier to find.   -juice

If you take the financing there is no rebate. The $500 is dealer cash so it's up to them whether to offer it or not.   BTW, Edmunds is behind the curve in updating prices, and we've just had another increase announced. This may be the best time to buy.

#57 of 2119 04 Outback auto price by monkeyking1 Jan 22, 2004 (10:40 pm)
I live in Bergen County New Jersey. I went to a Subaru dealer in West Nyack, NY. The following is the deal they gave me today for a 2004 Outback automatic transmission base model (2.5L engine).   INVOICE: $22881 (Edmunds says it is $21945, but there is a $70 regional adjustment after I typed in my zipcode) Dealers say that they need to add 2.2% profit over this INVOICE price. Thus, 2.2% x 22881 = $503.38. So, the base price is $23,384.38. Then, they gave me a rebate of $500 dollars. After that, another rebate (this rebate applies to people who would pay cash.) of $1500 was also applied. The total price is now $21,384.38. My questions are: 1. Do New York area dealers have different INVOICES? 2. Did people in Post #41 or #44 or #56 (you are from NJ) have to pay 2.2% of profit of invoice price. If no one paid this 2.2% profit, I will tell the dealer he should not do this crazy math to trick me and will also ask him to start pricing $100 - $200 under invoice price. It seems that there is a new rebate $1500 (if you pay cash?)plus another $500 rebate at this point. This $1500 rebate ends 2/2/2004. I would appreciate very much if any of you could give your opinion and help me with purchasing this car.

Edmunds is woefully out of date on pricing. It appears we show 2003 cost figures on 2004 cars and it's about to get worse; we have a price increase on all incoming models.   There is a $1500 rebate for those who have their own or standard financing, plus $500 dealer cash. If you pay attention to this, you'll find you get a better deal than is described on our favorite automotive website anyway. Replies to this message: frog (Jun 06, 2004 2:38 pm)

Hi Raybear - I sent a note to the Pricing guys asking them about the pricing data we show on the site. Thanks!
#60 of 2119 NJ buyers... by purduealum91 Jan 23, 2004 (10:38 am)
I used to live in vernon, so I am familiar with Salerno Duane Subaru in Newton (is Dave still there?) and Liberty Subaru in Oradell. In my opionion, why arent you buying from Liberty. Correct me if I am wrong, but their prices are always the lowest becasue they are a volume dealer.   Tom
