Well, giving 'em the finger would only serve to escalate the situation. The loss of your sale and bad word-of-mouth will hurt them more than an obscene gesture.
 
That said, clearly you didn't get treated right by anyone there. I'd say it's their fleet manager's fault for having you come in without an appointment. (My dealership is similar... gotta make an appointment w/that person, as no other salespeople are authorized to deal at those prices - though I imagine you could come pretty close. However, I don't think my dealership would try to get $400 over MSRP... I was treated very fairly when purchasing from others there in the past.) Sounds like what happened to you is an extreme case of what happens at most "old-school" dealers... they just don't really listen to what you're saying. And obviously verbal threats of physical violence aren't appropriate in any business situation. If there were other customers there, I wonder how they felt after witnessing this.
 
Try posting over in the forum "Subaru B9 Tribeca (B9X)" for "Karen in AZ". She's very smart about Subie research and am sure she could direct you to a quality dealer in the Phoenix area... probably the same one she purchased hers from! Here's a link to her website with lots of Tribeca info and links, including recommendations for dealers in Avondale and Prescott. Check it out.
 
Sorry 'bout your lousy experience.

My Beca buying experience by drpeace

I've just got a 7-seat Ltd Atlantic Blue (no nav, no DVD) for $33,194 + tax, title, registration fee+$59 dealer's doc fee.
That is +$1,273 from Edmund's invoice ($31,921)
and -$1,356 from dealer's MSRP ($34,550)
Payed the car cash (no lease or loan).
The car was on the Dealer's lot and was delivered to me promptly. Was a good buying experience, although I realize that perhaps I could have pushed the price lower according to some of the posts here...The Edmunds TMV price seems not accurate?
The dealer which I recommend is CitySide Subaru, Belmont, MA.
 
Comments on the deal appreciated, thanks

I think you could have bought at close to invoice or at most $600 over invoice plus tax, title..ect. it all depends on how much you want to play their game of back and forth.
 
There is ONE dealer in Pittsburgh downtown that wouldn't budge from $1200 over Invoice. I said OK bye and went to another dealer.

New England price is about $500 more than Edmunds ... this due to Boch's monopoly on all Subarus sold in NE. Other parts of the country do charge an advertising fee and /or dealer prep charge so the $500 isn't as bad as it seems. Besides we have the Red Sox ... all in all you got at fair deal IMO ... enjoy your Tribecca.

I paid invoice on my 7 pass limited with nav. $34200 something.
Edmund's invoice is off for at least the NE. The sales guy was very happy to sell to me at invoice so the 'invoice' price is padded like a bra.
