1. what's the msrp, it has a lot of options. you should pay 3.5k below, then you are getting a good deal.
 
2. $500 will be better spent on subaru extended warranty (make sure it is subaru provided), which is very good compared to others.

Prices look way too high.
 
my OB H4 2001 with only 34k miles, good condition, i have it on sale for only $13,000. Compared to this, the prices you were quoted are very high !

Buy hers. LOL
 
Between those two I'd go for the 2003, because that's after the head gasket issues were resolved.

My friend bought a 98 Outback last summer for $7000. It was a private party sale. But the guy she bought it from bought it from Anchor Subaru in RI. He said he sometimes will buy the car down there and drive it up to VT and resell it up here. Anyways, the price was cheap and the car was in excellent condition. So $10,900 for a 98 seems really high to me.

Cuchulain,
 
I'm in CT as well and am shopping around for an Outback. The price of $22,695 seems pretty good. Is this for a manual or an automatic? Which dealer have you been working with?
 
Thanks!

I got a quote of 18000 including tax/title/license for a Base automatic model Outback with compass/extender/all-weather floor mats and air filtration system. They will take my 99 Camry CE with 92000 miles. Does that sound like a good deal?

That's with the trade? What's the blue book wholesale for your trade?
 
I would look at these as two seperate transactions, to keep things simple.

I just found an '01 VDC with 45,000 mi at a local Chevy dealer. Its a dealer I don't necessarily trust.
 
Anyway..its pretty clean and they are asking $20.9K. Kelly Blue Book lists the retail of this model at 20.9 too. I like the idea of a 3.0 but I hate the idea of buying a car with 45K. I certainly can't afford a new one so I'm wondering about the value of buying used compared to a new 2.5 for 23K?
 
What would be a good offer on the VDC? $17K?

Keep in mind that thing was over $30 grand when new, and it has a ton of equipment on it.
 
I imagine you could bargain them down to $19,999, just tell them you'd put a $20k price cap on your budget. $17k is too low, their price is already at the book value, so that's fair. At $20k it's still a deal.
 
vs. New? Well, are the extras important to you? If so, you could add an extended warranty to the VDC and still come out ahead.
 
If you value new car smell and not the leather and moonroof, go for the new model.
