Replying to: chuck68516 (Apr 05, 2009 6:46 pm) Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!! I was on my way to the dealer, stopped home for the title and thankfully checked my email. I had my father with me and we were so thankful for your guidance. I did not go through with the deal. After sharing with him your findings, the dealer offered me: 2009 Legacy Special Ed (instead of the LTD) $5000.00 cash for my car (2003 PT Cruiser GT- with all the extras in good condition) $280.00 monthly/36/12,000 - no hidden fees- all taxes included, included Philadelphia, PA tax Dealer also will add the leather/heated seats in the SE (as I liked them in the LTD) It was late and decided to make the decision tomorrow- now today 4/7 My dad and I thought it sounded pretty good. Your thoughts if I could inquire again? One other Q-- I saw a review on consumer reports which stated the car had a problem in emergency situations with "It loses major points for handling that gets tricky in emergency maneuvers. " I think the review was not current even though it came up on a 2009 search. Didn't find any reivews that duplicated that-- any knowledge here. Sorry for the note length!!!! Thank you!!!!

SALES TAX rate 36 mth/ 12,000 mi year My car: I receive $5,000 cash (2003 PT Cruiser GT- very good cond) The dealer does state inspections at no cost to me for the 3 years (after 3 years if I don't buy a SUBARU- I pay $300.00 bank charges) I truly appreciate your help-- you have been a WONDERFUL resource and I am so very grateful!!!!!!!!

So here's the deal i was given over the phone tonight. It sounds good to me, just thinking it through and asking for your thoughts. 2009 Legacy SE MSRP 22900 Deal - 20565 (after $1500 rebate and plus the $695 destination charge) $256 /month (271 with tax) pay only $271 and drive away. I was looking to get to $250 and they said if I put $500 down + $250 first month I'd be on my way. I seriously doubt I can find a better offer...thoughts? Now, if i can just convince the wife....

Replying to: jstlookin (Apr 08, 2009 5:08 pm) and what mileage per year? |

Replying to: jstlookin (Apr 08, 2009 5:08 pm) Manufacturer's List Price : $23,825.00 Heuberger Motors Internet Price: $19,677.00 (Including $595 Acquistion Fee). The Legacy SE I'm looking at is almost $1,000 higher MSRP and is almost $1,000 lower sale price. That equals $241.69 monthly payment on a 36 month/ 12K per year lease including my 7% sales tax and ZERO down. The only reason I haven't signed the lease agreement yet is I have one dealer telling me they can add the $1400 Special Edition discount back onto MSRP to calculate the residual and one dealer telling me they can't/won't do that. The dealer that will doesn't have the car I want. If I can convince Heuberger Motors to use the pre discounted sticker price of $25,225 my monthly payment will be $219.45 including tax. You should be able to get a loaded out 2.5i Limited for $275 a month with zero down. I'd hold out a while longer. Plus, the 2010 Legacy is going to be completely redesigned so the 2009's will soon be even less attractive. Hold out 1-2 more months and you'll be able to get a 2009 for under $200 with nothing down.

Replying to: chuck68516 (Apr 08, 2009 7:54 pm) The MSRP was the same as yours (chuck), i just used the Edmunds MSRP. They are e-mailing me the sticker today so I can compare it. As far as residual, I am using the $14,XXX from the Subaru website on the details of the lease offer. Big question, when using an online lease calculator, I couldn't get the standard Subaru lease offer to work without removing $300, so that is what I was using as a baseline. Do you happen to know where that comes from? When I get home and see the sticker price, I will put all the details in. Thanks for your help!
