Salomonskier720 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 First of all this is my 1st post so I apologize if I am doing this wrong. I sometimes feel guilty because I use forms all of the time as information sources however I hardly ever am an active participant (abusing the system). I know I have seen some people posting about how they payed a "a few" grand under invoice for the new lgt's however I am wondering what the actual amount is for a good price on a brand new 2012 LGT? Are they saying invoice is MSRP or invoice is the price the dealer pays? Current Quote price with the following options: 2012 Subaru LGT -Trunk Lip Spoiler -Auto Dim Mirror w/ Homelink -All Weather Mats -Interior Illumination Kit -Splash Guards -Trunk Cargo Tray -Wheel Locks MSRP on Quote = $33,613 Dealer Discount = $ 2,302 Out the door price with Sales Tax, title, etc. = $33,414 From my discussion w/ the salesman, I might be able to get it a few hundred more off however the price is pretty fixed. I will likely be financing at 2.9% for 60 months unless I can find a better rate else where. I live in Michigan (sales tax = 6%) so I don't know if that helps w/ regional pricing differences. Are there any other forms out there which specifically discuss prices? Additional Questions: -Opinions on the Short Throw Shifter? I have heard mixed opinions, a good gear head friend of mine suggests it will put additional strain on the syncros so I shouldn't get it where others suggest is makes it a more enjoyable experience to drive and it is more reliable... For now I plan on going to another local Subaru dealer and see what kind of a price they give me on the same car w/ the same options. After I take delivery of the car, I plan on buying some blizzak tires and a Thule Areo rack w/ ski box and also a front fork mountain bike rack for the summer. I looked into the Subaru roof rack however it is the same door clamp style as the Thule at a higher price. I always told myself that I would never purchase a new car however with the high price and low supply of the LGT's I feel like it is easy to justify buying brand new, especially w/ dealer financing... I have tried considering other vehicles however I keep on coming back to the LGT. I need an all season car. All Wheel drive, manual, turbochargered, which fits 4 comfortably. Please feel free to share your opinion on the price, additional options I have opted for, or anything else. I have been driving a 93 Honda Accord since I was 16 (now 22) so this will be my 1st new car :-) Hence why I am so clueless on all of this stuff. Thank you ahead of time, I really appreciate the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators BarManBean Posted October 13, 2011 Moderators Share Posted October 13, 2011 My only advice is about your interest rate. Do you belong to a federal credit union of any kind? If so, a number of them are offering between 0% and 1.9% so you could find a better rate. Good luck with your purchase!

The lowest I have found is with PenFed at 2.49% for 60 months(I will have to do 60). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators BarManBean Posted October 13, 2011 Moderators Share Posted October 13, 2011 Well, 2.49 is better that 2.9. I know that PenFed had 1.99% on all cars (used or new) quite recently for up to 48 months. Buddy of mine just got 0% through a credit union, but not sure which one or how long the loan was for.
