I ditched my cargo cover anyway, and aux input would be useful if I had an iPod but I don't.
 
XM - nah, I'm not ready to pay for radio, at least not yet.
 
Air bags I hope to never use, what's the upgrade exactly anyway?
 
Brake assist can be good or bad, I hate Mercedes brakes for instance. They feel very unnatural and non-linear. Suspension also, could or could not be a real improvement.
 
I think these things are minor. It's the same body, engine, transmission, only a few tweaks here and there. I actually think the memory seats and rear cam are more useful.

To me, the upgrades on the 07 are worth the extra money. But what I was wondering is, has anyone bought an 07 with 3rd row, nav and dvd? I'm still wondering if $35,079 is a good price, or if I can do better. (keeping the same model)
Thanks-Krista

The insurance copy estimated approx 8k & they sent out an expert but could not determine exact cause of fire.

If you can wait, I think you'll get a better deal in a short while. The 07s are hot off the carriers. Seems like the dealer is about $800 over invoice, and invoice was fairly easy to get on the 06s.
 
Then again, if you need a new car now, the price isn't going to drop enough to offset renting something else until prices do drop.

The invoice the dealer showed me said $35, 776 (including pudle lights and auto dimming mirror). The Costco program is $550 over invoice. Why is their "invoice" higher? I checked Edmunds, and the price they showed me matches with the Edmunds invoice price. Is your figure from another source? Thanks : )

Krista - you can find invoice on all B9 Tribecas here:
http://www.cars101.com/subaru/tribeca/tribeca2007.html#price
Keep scrolling down that page and you'll also find invoice price for most of the available accessories/options.
 
Are you in New England, by chance? That may explain the invoice price difference. Subaru of New England tacks on an additional charge.
 
p.s. My wife's name is Krista, too! Not all that common to see.

question on VIP program by tyyeh0
Aug 10, 2006 (2:48 pm)

From what I read before on this forum, it seems that Subaru's VIP program allows you to buy the vehicle at invoice + any dealer incentives right?
 
I see on edmunds that there's a $1250 marketing incentive in the form of cash to the dealer. So would I get this incentive also if I go through the VIP program?
 
any informed comments would be greatly appreciated.

Jeff-
Thanks for the website link. That price is what I'm paying, once you add the puddle lights and auto dimming mirror. So I'm getting the car for $700 under invoice, which sounds good to me.
I'm not in New England, I'm in California- which makes me crazy for buying this car, since I'll be paying $3.35 a gallon for premium gas. But I love the shape and interior finish of the Tribeca. Where else do you get so much style in a 7 seater?
 
ps- Hi to the other Krista. Yes, we're a rare breed!

$700 under invoice sounds pretty good for an '07. I bet you could eke out a few hundred more if you want to barter for it... maybe offer to buy it on the spot if they offer $1000 under? They still make a fair profit, and you can put that extra $300 toward your first few months of gas or tinting the windows (practically a must in CA?). If they don't take your offer, you're no worse off, so it's worth a shot.
