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. |

Replying to: lipanj (Apr 13, 2007 12:52 pm) I'm in the same boat and I think I'm going to wait. The extra torque, cheaper fuel costs, plus a supposed 10% in fuel efficiency should mean lower operating costs. I'll make up the rest in resale.

Replying to: lipanj (Apr 13, 2007 12:52 pm) It's a lot of car for that kind of money. With the '08 engine be an improvement- of course. Will you be able to get an '08 with DVD, Nav and goodies for that price? Not until 2010. |

Replying to: ateixeira (Apr 16, 2007 8:11 am) The price was $31.0k for the Tribeca which includes destination charge. I'm trading in my '01 Outback, which they offered $10.3k. Only other charges would be $199 for documentation fees and then state tax. Do you have any idea what the '08 pricing would be? Just thinking the cost savings would make up for any incremental fuel adjustments.

Replying to: lipanj (Apr 16, 2007 5:10 pm) That said, if you'll really miss the '07's distinctive styling, $31k is a very nice price for a very nice vehicle. I like the '07s European looks (wife doesn't). The '08 looks handsome as well, to me, so my money would go to the '08 with the stronger, more efficient engine. |

Replying to: ecgz88 (May 03, 2007 1:02 pm) I am currently negociating: I know about the 2750 cash and the 2% holdback. I am trying to figure out much you can get by NOT financing the car. There was a 1000 factory to dealer last month I believe. Anyone?
