Replying to: jeffmc (Jan 22, 2007 7:48 pm) I thought that ~$23,500 would be the point that I would tell the dealer "thanks, but maybe another time ... call me if you change your mind" and walk out. I would expect to receive a call back by the end of the month, but if not, I'd continue to look around. I'm under no pressure to buy right now. My feeling is that this dealer has had a very slow January, even for a Subaru dealer. Also, according to a recent press release from Subaru of America, the December 06 sales of new Tribecas are down 42% from December 05. Unfortunately for Subaru, the Tribeca is their albatross, the Japanese Edsel! However, this is how I like to buy my cars, finding outstanding deals on quality vehicles that are out of favor with the general "current hot prestige oriented" buying public. My current car is a 93 Mitsubishi Diamante wagon, a high quality vehicle that was passed over by the general public. I bought it for $6500 six years ago and put on an additional 100,000+ miles on it since. Granted, the Tribeca is more than a little out there in styling (some may say it's uglier than a baboon's butt), but it does kinda of grow on you. However, it has excellent reliability and crash test reviews, and I can handle "ugly" at the right price.

from Van Bortel Subaru in Victor, NY. I imported the vehicle into Canada. It cost me US$30412.5 including remote starter, reverse sensors, bumper cover and rubber mats. No tax because I don't live in NY. The vehicle is great. However, there are some noise when turn up/down driver side window. The dealership here in Richmond Hill, ON had it re-adjusted and it's covered by warranty. Special thx to cocopandan. You advised me to import a Subaru.

Replying to: lkconfer (Jan 24, 2007 2:53 pm) Maybe when the 08s arrive that will happen. -juice |

Replying to: lkconfer (Jan 24, 2007 2:53 pm) Their warranty is fully transferable, so as a used car it's the best warranty you can buy. -juice |

Replying to: lkconfer (Jan 23, 2007 9:29 am)  Diamante's a nice vehicle. Cars101.com says invoice, including destination, on a 7-pass Ltd w/DVD & Nav, is about $35,700, not $31,571. I think I recently read that Subaru has stopped (or slowed?) production of '07s to help reduce inventory by the time the '08s come out.

Replying to: lkconfer (Jan 25, 2007 11:21 am) Best deal I saw was a similar car with only 7800 miles for $26k. The asking price is not too bad. -juice |
