I didn't think that I would be posting my prices paid experience on the B9 Tribeca forum. My price point was more in line with the Pilot and I was toying with the idea of saving a little more money and going with the new RAV4. Well, after sending out internet requests to the Honda and Toyota dealers in my area, I thought what the heck, I'll send out a request to the Subaru dealers for the Tribeca. A couple of the Honda dealers came down to invoice and the Toyota dealers were no where close to invoice. I live in the Pacific Northwest and it appears as if the Japanese SUV's are a little harder to bargain for than in other areas. Anyway, I'm meandering... One Subaru dealer (Chaplin's in Bellevue) came back with a quote of $868 below invoice, along with $1,000 customer cash, no destination or NW Marketing fee ($275), and offered Subaru financing of 4.9% over 60 months (lower APR's for shorter terms). I thought this was a deal too good to pass up. Initially, I just wanted the 7-passenger Limited with DVD (no NAV), but there were only 6 vehicles that fit the bill in a 3 state area, none in a color that I wanted. So I added in the NAV to expand my choices and the internet dealer located a car in southern Washington that was suitable. Here's what I got: 7-pass Limited w/ DVD & NAV, Seacrest Metallic, cross bars, puddle lights, auto dimming mirror, impact sensor, hood protector, front and rear bumper protector, cargo tray, wheel locks, and of course the cheap cargo cover. After subtracting the $868 from the invoice price, the vehicle came to $35,766 and I got to subtract $1,000 off of this after tax, title and license were added in. The dealer showed me the invoice price on his sheet, so his numbers added up, but I thought the invoice price on his sheet seemed a little high. What do you guys think? Was I literally taken for a ride? I figure I spent about $2K more than a fully loaded Pilot, but I got the NAV/DVD combo and full time AWD so it was money well spent.

Replying to: yoyodk (Apr 05, 2006 10:25 am) Your timing was great, too - that $1000 discount is the closest thing to a cash rebate Subaru's offered on Tribeca. It's only available if you finance through Subaru (Chase), and it just became available April 4. Nearly $1900 below invoice? Sounds like you did just fine.  Congrats on your sweet new ride and welcome to the Subaru family! There are a couple forums for owners of all Subaru models here at Edmunds called "Subaru Crew - Meet the Members II" and "Subaru Crew Cafe". Feel free to pop in and say hi. There are a few regulars there from the Pac NW, too, (myself included).

Replying to: yoyodk (Apr 05, 2006 10:25 am) I believe the Pilot has a 5" NAV screen and a 7" DVD screen. Yours is 7" and 9", respectively. Does size matter?  In a way yours is closer to the MDX, even then I believe Acura uses 7"/7" so you still have an edge there. -juice

Replying to: ateixeira (Apr 05, 2006 11:28 am) I'll definitely check out the Edmunds Subaru owners forums now that I qualify. I never thought I'd be owning a Subaru until the Tribeca came out last fall! |

Just checked rebates and incentives for the Tribeca on Edmunds and they now show the customer cash is up to $1500 and dealer cash from manufacturer (called marketing support) is also up to $1500. If it's true, these are the highest discounts I've seen on the Tribeca. Tells me there are deals out there to be had! Welcome yoyo - I think your price sounds good too for all the whistles and bells you got! |

Fitz has a base model for $27.7k. I had a $500 loyalty coupon plus $500 in Subaru bucks, so $26.7k sounds tempting...but we're still condo poor! -juice |

I just started looking at the Tribeca last weekend in the Mid-West. On a demo with 5000 miles I was quoted this price on a 7 passenger limited--$32,200. This included a 5 year, 50k bumper to bumper warranty, Protection Group 2, Popular Equipment Group 1, puddle lights, DVD, leather. Is this a prett good price?
