I just test drove the Santa Fe - I almost hate to say it, but I liked it way better than the Outlander (and that probably makes me really unhip and out of the insider's group, but hey!). It was a little bigger than I'd really need, but I just liked it better. Can't put my finger on it. Again, obviously I am judging this more on aesthetics (interior). You have to remember I'll be coming from driving a 1996 Nissan Sentra, so the details in driving performance may be a little lost on me

cash vs financing by prndldriver

Does it make a difference in the price to the dealer if you're paying cash or getting credit? Maybe it's a stupid question, but I am beginning to sort of wonder.
 
Also, I am glad that we walked away from a deal for an Outlander LXS with sun/sound and other package because it was only 90% of MSRP. Thanks to a poster in a another section who thought that wasn't such a good deal. Yet, that means I would have had to negotiate down another $1600 or so. That doesn't seem like much fun, or doesn't make the car as attractive to our household. I am thinking this especially since these cars are going to be sold used (and already are) at a more attractive price. But then I am thinking that used cars are supposed to be negotiated even more. Great.

I have decided to get an outlander, as loaded as I can afford... so I want to learn as much as I can about it prior to going to the dealers. Other than here, where else can I get good info and chat with some owners!
Thanks

I've been reading about what everyone has been paying recently and was curious on what everyone thinks I should pay for a fully loaded XLS.
 
XLS + 4WD + Navigation/Sun+Sound/Luxury + Rear Entertainment System (which normally isn't an option on the XLS).
 
MSRP on the vehicle is 32,525.
Invoice (according to Edmunds) is 30,087.
 
Please keep in mind this is the XLS and does not come with a rebate (although I do qualify for $500 recent grad rebate). I have also already been offered 1.9% for 60 month (instead of the 2.9%/60 that they've been advertising).

Does anyone know if they will give you 1.9 or 2.9 financing on a LS in addition to the 1 k rebate?? I founf=d a dealer who will sell a LS 4wd with sight and sun pak for $22900.

I would try to get it for $2000 under invoice -$500 recent grad rebate, + low financing, since 08' should be here within a month. If you end up $1500 + 500 Grad rebate under invoice that is still good. Good luck.

Not sure what sight package is, but usually you can take either: low financing or rebate. I can't guess what your specific dealer can/can't do. It will not hurt to try. I would say 07 LS AWD with Sun/ Sound Pkg. should cost ~ 23K + low financing. If you can get it lower, that's even better.

Yes, they would make some money on your loan as well. Best for you is to get low (1.9%) financing or pay cash, if you can afford it. But instead, if you would put that cash into CD at 5% or so, you would even make some money.

Rob from MASS here.
 
I paid $1,000 under dealer invoice, XLS, 4wd, S&S package, Luxury Package and Navigation on August 25th. Here's my breakdown:
 
Car as described= $27,999
Doc fee = $199
TTL = +/- $1,480
 
$500 down and financed the rest for 60 mos at 2.9%.
 
Silly to pay "cash" for any car when dealers are offering sub 4% for financing this time of year. CDs (got two right now at ingdirect.com) are paying out 5.15%. let your cash work for you....still netting 1 point or so with a CD, depending on note term.
 
I have a two year old girl and her Britax car seat fits nicely behind the front passenger seat. Door does not swing out 90 degrees as with the CRV when placing my little bambino in the backseat, but fine for my needs.
 
My wife drives a Mini Cooper and I drive a Ford Excursion. Needed a third, "in-between-sized" car for us. LOVE THE OUTLANDER AND WOULD BUY IT ALL OVER AGAIN!! No issues thus far and I have just under 1k miles on it! Bummer that Mitsubishi is getting alot of bad press about its longevity in N.A. AVG MPG now is about 22. Use 87 Octane.
 
CRVs are nice. Rondos too. RAV4 also nice. But like Goldielocks and the three bears, the Outlander XLS was "just right."
 
Drove 25 miles south to Boston to get the XLS...local dealers close to my home laughed and would not negotiate when I told them what I wanted to pay. Dealer was 2 star rating out of 5....but the price was right. Besides, you can take the Outlander to any dealer for servicing.
 
Anyway, just wanted to put my two cents worth out on this thread to help those folks who are looking to get into any Outlander trim level. BTW, the dealer in Boston offers somewhat similiar pricing for the ES, LS models as well.
