There is also a $1000 rebate included in the calculations" OK, so factory invoice is $23,775. Normally you subtract the rebate, so it would drop to $22,775, and $275 below that would take your final price to $22,500. Or, do they mean it's $23,500? So the question is, was the invoice $24,775, and they already reduced the price? Or are they keeping the $1000 when they say it's already been factored in? Their wording is a bit ambiguous. You can look up the invoice prices to find out what they mean, or e-mail them to clarify. Dealers can be sneaky. I went to buy a car for "$1 over invoice" one time, and when I got there they tried to add freight. Freight is included in the invoice! So they were trying to make me pay for freight twice.

Replying to: 2panther (May 22, 2008 4:03 am) I know what they mean, though. It's the same here in MD. You pay sales tax on a rebate, but not on a dealer incentive that the dealer passes on to you. Just make sure they pass it on to you!

Sorry I've been away and haven't posted. The search continues... I didn't haggle at all yet since it's 92 degrees outside and it felt the same temp in the dealership and I was sweating like a hostage. Had to get out of there. Here is the deal... 2008 Subaru 2.5i Limited Selling Price: $23718.00 Trade Allowance: $0 Less Payoff: $0 Cash Deposit: $0 Cash on Delivery: $0 Rebate: $1000 3 year, 36k miles Rate/APR (money factor??) 0.00160 Lease: MSRP Amount: $25265.00 Residual: 56% Amount: $14148.40 Payment Amount: $350.72 Drive Off Amount Due: $350.72 How does that sound? That's everything except 1st payment rolled in. Any room for improvement? Thanks! Scan of deal workup paper

nobody has an opinion? when I look at edmunds.com for the invoice for a 2.5i Limited with VDC I see $22,890 according to their workup sheet the selling price is $23,718 which isn't too far off the invoice price as I understand it. If this looks good I will be making this deal this week!

Replying to: 2panther (Jun 09, 2008 4:06 pm) You aren't being given enough of a discount on this car for my taste either. After the $1,000 cash incentive that Subaru is currently providing on this model is taken into account, you are only being given a dealer discount of around $550. This car probably has a spread of around $2,500 between its full MSRP and its dealer invoice price. I personally would want at least another grand off of its selling price. Of course, this may be easier said than done if there isn't a lot of competition in your area. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum
