I bought the 2005! by quorkus

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,

this is the Outback we are considering, only would purchase if we could get in the $21.7 range. Was there any other charge other than tax & license (like dealer handling fee or whatever they call it there)
 
How do you liked the car & how is the power?

what was the MSRP of the OB you purchased? Is the 5.25 finance a factory Subaru finance deal? and is it good for 60 month finance with good credit?
 
Thanks

Looking to gte back in a Subaru by mrgary

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?

The Forester's foot print isn't really any bigger than the Outback Sport's. Same wheelbase, for instance, nearly the same width, and only slightly longer.
 
The Outback is bigger, though, mostly longer.
 
If you want a good compromise between size and space, I say go for the Forester. It's a big little car.

No, no handling, documentation or prep fee. In a word no B.S. (Barbara Straissend, just Title $15 & plate transfer $8. I like it thus far, but own it only couple of weeks and put ca. 350 miles. In Michigan flat lands, power delivery is smooth and more than adequate. Haven't taken it to the Rocky's yet Engine is surprisingly quiet even when accelarate. Did not pass 2700 rpm yet thopugh. Trip computer on the other han is a joke. No matter where I drive and how I drive, it always show avg.23.5 miles/gal. for the trip. Driver's seat is most uncomfortable of any car I have owned, including 1990 Honda Accord, which until now held this dubious honor. I am avarage size guy, 5'11" and 167lbs. This is my first full time four wheel drive vehicle, and it makes significant difference with respect to traction, strait line tracking and handling even on the dry surface. What's more, this pronounced benefits are achieved with very crappy OEM tires.
Except for the seats, the other deficiencies could be consider as a nit picking, at least in my book.
All in all I have no regrets, and would recommend it.
Good luck!

Outback price by glenski01

It appears that Subaru really wants to move their cars, most of the dealers I visited had an over stock of Outbacks. The pricing I have seems great to me! For a 2.5i auto, MSRP of 26420. quotes so far via internet only: 21,700, 20,815 plus D&H fee of 299.50, & $20,815 no addl fees except taxes. Thats $5605 off MSRP!! includes current $2000 factory rebate which may expire end of June.
We are between two vehicles right now, but boy the Subaru's aggressive pricing is very attractive!

The pricing seems very aggressive. We purchased a 2.5i Limited wagon with an MSRP of $29,938 for $23,995--nearly $6000 off sticker. In addition, Subaru's extended warranty plans were offered at half off, and we are using the 0%/2 year financing.

Well I got it used (2005), so I can't really tell you the MSRP. 5.25% was from a credit union (not subaru) for 60 months. Sorry I can't be more helpful! But it looks like I am too late anyway... congrats on your purchase!

2006 XT- Denver dealers? end of year bargains? by steviewonder
Jun 15, 2006 (7:38 pm)

Hello from a newbie. I've been shopping around for a 2005 XT with low miles at a good price (that is, at or near Edmunds and KBB) and am striking out. I know these cars are popular in this area but thought I'd have better luck. So now I am rethinking the car search and will probably end up trying to get a deal in the next couple of months on a leftover 2006. This is the first time in over 20 years I will be buying a new car from a dealer and I'm a little intimidated at the prospect of negotiating the price. Help!
 
Any advice on dealers in the Denver area? Also- and this is the important question for me- how much can I realistically expect to talk down the price on a 2006 when the 2007s are starting to come in to the dealer? Is it even worth waiting another couple of months? Thanks in advance for any advice. Stevie Wonder
