Hello everyone. I am new kid on a block, and this is my first post. After months of research, reading, including posts on this site (heartfelt thanks to all), debating and going back and forth between Base RAV4 V6, and 2.5I O.B. On the very last day of May, I phoned local dealer(Suburban Subaru in Troy, MI) in response to his e-mail offer of $23.373 on the lightly optioned 2.5I, auto, with auto dimming mirror and compass, wheel lock set, net, and all weather mats with window sticker of $26,773. Was able to negotiate the price down to $21,737 over the phone. In this price he also included free lifetime oil change. My total OTD price came to $21,737 + $1,304 (6% MI sale tax)+ $23 (Title and Plates)= $23,064. People I delt with over the phone and 30 minutes later in their office were very professional, friendly and a pleasure to deal with. Whole purchasing experience low pressure and stress free. After putting $ 500 deposit with my Subaru C.C.and 15 minutes b/4 closing I drove away in a brand new Willow green/ Moss green O.B. with 15 miles on the clock. I'll comment on the car itself after few months of daily driving.

just purchased a 2006 outback 2.5 xt ltd wagon with turbo. it came with the 5 speed auto transmission w\ sportshift and equipment groups 1B and 2B. i paid $28,200 before 5% tax and 175 for title, registration, and tags. was this a fair deal? dealer tried to hit me with $99 dealer processing fee at close, but when i balked and got ready to go they waived it. please share your thoughts, thanks

| I really found edmunds to be helpful. I rec'd 4 internet quotes and was able to use that info to get the most geographically close dealer to beat the best offer. they also offered 27,300 on the llbean 6 cylinder. I was surprised that was cheaper than the 4 cylinder turbo but I am a novice. Anyway , thanks to edmunds and all the posters - I felt like I had some knowledge to help level the playing field. | |

Thank you all so much for your input. I was trying to decide between 2005 and 2006. I found the color I wanted and I am not a really new car kinda gal so I opted for the almost new 2005. I got the Atlantic Blue Prl/Gray Opal with 8900 mi for $19,245 + tax. 5.25% financing. So good credit does pay off! thanks, r

Have been looking at the Outback, and Ouback sport SE, and also the Forester. The outback has a lot of options and more cargo room. The Outback SE and Forester are about the same size but the Forester has mor cargo space. Seems like it is because it is more box like. I like the Sport SE its fun to drive but wonder if I will miss out on the extra things the Outback Wagon has? We have 7 dogs. Any know the Forester X with Front Disc rear Drum Breaks is better than what the SE has? What are the advantages of the smaller car vs bigger?
