i see dealer commecials in MA/NH to take 4,000 off any legacy, OB. so, this should be a good ball park for you, if you are in NE.
 
go to subaru.com. find dealers websites & click specials on each. you will know the specials going on now. Since people are wondering if i really know the stuff, here is the link: see specials here on this site, turn off your pop-up blocker

Hey Sweet Subie - you won my credibility. Do you happen to know anything about dealers in Utah? So far my email attempts for a price on a B9 have got me a bunch of bull about coming into the dealership or $1000 over invoice w/Costco, but their invoice doesn't match Edmunds - not even close. Seems like I need to go to another market from what I'm reading. I do realize the new model is a whole different pricing game than the Outback. Just wish they'd at least throw me a carrot to bite on.

don't know much there.
 
Have you gone in & negotiated ? there is a difference between a price quote & getting a final price in person. Go in on last 2 days of the month, they are desparate to meet monthly target. give your price & be firm. don;t show any emotions or weakness, leave wife & kids at home. i know NE dealers are giving at 500 over invoice.
 
wait, i expect tribecas to be selling at a bdecent argain in a few months.

Thanks Sweet. Good advice, and I do plan to wait out the hype I've decided. My '99 Passat isn't worth squat as a trade so I might as well drive it down.

See if those dealers have a web site and e-mail them for price quotes to save you time.
 
Also, print out prices from no-haggle dealers like fitzmall.com (MD, FL) and ask if they'll beat the price. Van Bortel is another (NY).
 
Finally, if they can't, consider traveling to the area by train and driving it home, if you're on the east coast.

Buying in Boston area by drew10

Any thoughts or experiences with Subaru dealers in the Boston area, especially Norwood Subaru would be appreciated. Will be buying an Outback LL Bean wagon very shortly, as soon as I can get a good idea of what I should be paying for it. I know Norwood Subaru was asking $28,120 back at the end of May and I assume I should be able to match this now in July. This seems like a good price compared to some of the prices mentioned here.
Do you think this is a reasonable price to expect now? Any comments would be appreciated . Thanks.

sweet subie , you say in one of your posts that Norwood Subaru was not honest. Can you be more specific and tell me what they specifically did to make you say this? Just wondering because idealy I hoped to buy there because it's the closest to me. My first response from them through the internet was $29,895. This is high considering they were selling them (Outback LL Bean wagon) for $28,120 at the end of May.

Not honest in the sense that they weren;t upfront & giving a price through the net & asking me to come over. they were playing the negotiation game. once i reduce the price on OB XT Ltd, they were offering me just the XT etc etc. I have seen many these in the past. It looks like they are dealing with you differently. Plus my colleague bought from them & negotiated hard & got a good deal on demo. So, that's why i said if you are a tough negotiator, you will get a good deal.
 
Did you seethe link i sent earlier about Subaru of Milford in NH giving 4k off any legacy or OB. Also, my experience at singer subaru (about 50 miles) from where you are was wonderful.

Know of any good VA dealers? by chum

I'm looking to buy a 2005 Subaru Outback XT (manual) and live in central VA. I'm not against driving (DC ~2 hours away, Richmond ~1 hour away) to find a good deal and wanted to see if anyone could provide some help on choosing a dealer.
 
I've contacted a few dealers via email and so far the only one to respond has offered the price:
 
PRICE: $28,275 (before tax, tags and $250 processing fee, includes any rebates and incentives)
MSRP: $31,846
 
Is this a good deal? It's the color I want, but includes some options that I don't need (or would even use). The biggie is the Perimeter Alarm upgrade -- I'd never use it and would most likely have it disabled. Is it possible for the dealer to remove unwated options?
 
One last question: What's the etiquette when dealing with internet salesmen. Is the offer they provide, the best possible, or is there always some room?
 
Appreciate the help...
