We are looking at the 5-psgr Tribeca (Limited) w/ Nav..I am wondering what is a feasible discount to expect since it is a demo model at the dealer with 5000+ miles already on it. Is 10% off about right, or is that too much/too little? Any thoughts, experts out there? Thanks in advance- Heather O.

They are revising the exterior styling and improving access to the third row, but the big change is the engine. It'll be a larger 6-cyl that will give it much more "oomph", removes the recommendation to use premium-grade gasoline, and still gets about 10% better mileage than the current engine. Better mileage+more power+cheaper fuel=WOW! A Subaru CEO also said prices for the '08 will stay the same and more content may be added. My suggestion would be to wait 'til official pictures are released, and if you like the new styling, hold out for the '08 when it goes on sale in June. You should still be able to purchase an '08 for at or near invoice, but not below invoice like the current models. Probably about $3000 difference from current discounts, I'd wager, but I think worth it. And the cheaper fuel & better mileage would help offset the cost over time. |

Replying to: rchandru (Apr 12, 2007 4:50 am) Invoice is over $34k for that model. That's a LOT of miles even for a Honda, so they'll probably wholesale it out for $500, if that. A dealer won't put a car that old on their used car lot. |

Replying to: lipanj (Apr 13, 2007 12:52 pm) We looked at the tribeca and liked the interior and the 3rd access wasn't bad as highlander. We liked the different look of tribeca. The only problem we have is with the 90 gas and mileage. The price the dealer quoted you is very good. Negotiate for dimming mirrors and mud flaps and bumper guards. I have no idea about the 2008 model. |

Replying to: lipanj (Apr 13, 2007 12:52 pm) Biggest change is the engine. It's 3.6L now, instead of 3.0L, yet Subaru made enough design innovations that the new engine actually weighs less. The new engine has more horsepower, much more torque, gets 10% better fuel economy AND runs on regular unleaded instead of premium. Also good to go for the '08 if you'll use that 3rd row - the windows back there are larger now. Better visibility for the driver & less claustrophic for any passenger back there. Also, access was improved to the 3rd row by adding an assist spring in the 2nd row seat mechanism, adding grab handles, and by allowing entry from either side of the 2nd row now. |
