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.

Hi,
 
  Can I ask where you are getting the $700 under invoice quote? I am southern cal, and I am looking to purchase an 07 soon.
 
thx

Subaru $1250 marketing incentive by morey000

I see on Edmunds that SOA is offering dealers $1250 in marketing incentive until Sept 5th. Granted, nobody can predict the future of what SOA will do- but I'm interested in buying a 'Beca in Oct/Nov timeframe. Is it reasonable to expect that the deals might be even better then? What has Subie done in the past. (this will be my first Subie.)

$700 under invoice reflects invoice plus $550, which is the Costco member deal, and then an additional discount of $1250 to reflect the dealer marketing support. If you are a costco member, they'll give you the invoice + $550 deal automatically, but I had to argue for awhile before they'd give me the -$1250. They claimed to have "never heard of marketing support". My slaesman claimed to be asking different departments, and pretended to misunderstand that I meant Edmunds was offering the money. It was a bit irritating. But I held out, and they eventually agreed to pass it on to me. I worked with South Coast Subaru in Costa Mesa, CA. But the Costco website will show you which dealers in your area participate in the Costco program if you click on services, then auto buying program. Good luck!

Generally they keep renewing the programs at the same level of incentive, and boost them up a month or two before the next model year models arrive. I can't recall a time when they dropped all incentives during a model year. That usually only happens when a popular new update comes out.
 
VIP - given it's easy to get that price on your own, you may not need to go through the trouble of qualifying for VIP. It does take all the haggling out of the equation if you don't like haggling.
