COLORS!!!! by bgadlage

Hi,
I am going to purchase an 07 soon.
I want the beige leather int, so that limits me to the White, Gold and Seacrest Green.
 
I have seen the white and it looks nice.
 
Has anyone seen the gold or the Seacrest?
 
I WANT to like the Seacrest, but can't tell by the brochure.
 
Does anyone know if it is:
 More green?
More Blue?
Or does it have a silvery tone to it?
Dose it look minty at all?
Sorry for all the questions.
 
I want to decide on color so I can then take the best deal.
Thanks
Belva

2006 Limited 5-Pass. Price by william642

Just bought a 2006 Limited Platinum with dark gray leather interior. No factory or dealer installed options other than the Limited package. Stickered for 32980, got it for 29980 (before rebate). Will pay tax on 29980 but then got the 2000 rebate AND 4.9% for 72 months makes this $480 per month with zero down for 72 months. When I sell my 2000 Intrepid I will send entire amount to Subaru finance company. Any feedback regarding price paid would be appreciated.

We have been shopping for a mid-size SUV and have driven and quite liked the Tribeca. However, the ridiculously high Cdn pricing has put us off. Is there anyone from Subaru corporate lurking here that can explain why a base 7-passenger B-9 is 20 percent higher in Canada than the US after converting the dollars? This is without destination/freight/PDI, which itself is almost exactly double in equivalent dollars, notwithstanding that we are only 230 miles farther from Lafayette than some place such as Great Falls Montana. I don't believe that the difference is at the dealer end, as Canadian invoice on a 7-passenger basic is CAD42,047, or USD36,842 at current rates.
 
Pretty frustrating when we see that our US friends are buying Ltds with navigation for that or less. We won't be buying at these differentials.

Have you thought about purchasing from a U.S. dealer? Sounds like it's relatively easy, a little paperwork and patience could save you thousands and thousands. Here's some good info about it:

A base model 7-pass invoice, minus $2500 rebates, is $28,500 (US). I bet you could get one for $27,000, a huge difference over Canadian prices. For example, Fitzmall has a 7-pass Limited with NAV for just over $30,000.

I got a 2006 5 psgr Ltd with puddle lights, mirror w/compass, wheel locks for $27572 from Fitzmall. Nice so far, wish it had an outlet in the dash for my radar detector but I love that the rear seats slide back...room for car seats without having to buy a minivan.

1. you will not be required to pay US tax. You will need evidence of your Canadian residency... driver's license, etc., I took my passport.
2. yes, you will need insurance!!! talk to your insurance company and provide them details of the new car including VIN #. You should have coverage from the moment you take possesion. Check also regarding license plate. e.g., Alberta license plates can be transferred on another vehicle for upto 15 days for transit without having to inform the registry.
3. I don't know
4. None
 
You will only pay GST at the border. Tribeca is made in the US.

Have been on the fance for quite some time, but bit the bullet today. Got 06 Tribeca 7 pass limited with nav, $26,350 with 10,000 miles on it. I realize for perhaps $4000 more or so could have gotten a new one (list on this exact model is $35,700 approx. What swung the deal was I got back $3000 more for my 05 Outback in trade than any other dealers.
 
Hope I did the right thing. Praying I will get highway mileage at least close to the 23 indicated on the sticker. Any & all comments would be appreciated.

Your deal sounds good to me. As for you MPG - That is the one thing that has disappointed me so far with the car. Just came back from a trip to the shore, car was load with 5 passengers and a luggage carrier - MPG was 18.3 - Maybe it was my driving habits. I was using the middle grade of gas on the trip. Maybe I would have done better with the highest grade of gas.
