Advice on Buying a 2013 WRX 5 Door

[Seina Yamada]

That's not even possible in Vegas. The Subaru dealer here is the only one within about 3 hours. The next closest ones being 3.5 hours away in LA, and the. 5.5 hours away in Phoenix. They are ****s and don't want to deal on ****. I refused to pay msrp, usually a dealer will give a little. They shook my hand and said there are ten more ppl outside that will pay msrp, why should we sell it to you for less. They actually let me walk, pre approval in hand, because I refused to pay msrp +++

My sales man is not budging either and it's the nearest dealership with the color/model that i want.

So for those who's dealing with dealers that won't budge on price, what you going to do? Suck it up and pay the price?

look, the money saved from msrp to invoice or somewhere in between, while a tidy bit of cash, shouldn't be a deal breaker if you really want the car. you can travel else where to get one, but by the time you add in travel expenses, your time and so on, you will chew into that savings pretty quickly. so find a dealer that has the car you WANT or the dealer you want to order from and go for it. the market on these cars is tightly controlled by subaru in my opinion. keeps the resale values up, but also the new prices don't budge much. there are a lot of instances where dealers get above sticker price for vehicles.

Guys, I wouldn't buckle to these dealers. Get your best price quote from LA or PHX or wherever and get a buddy to drive you - road trip man! I've done it three times from as far away as FL - I'm in ME. The travel costs will offset the savings but you can do the cost/benefit analysis. Also, once you have a quote in hand your local guy may change his mind. Good hunting!

I just bought a 13 base hatch with Fogs and locking wheel nuts in ISM for 24,789 OTD. Check TruCar.com and you'll that's at the extreme left end of the curve. It can be done, but do it before 12/31/12 'cause they really want to get their year end numbers.

I got mine for around 25k before adding the exhaust and boost gauge. I had another dealership fighting for my business which greatly helped the situation. I bought mine from the Sharrett in Hagerstown. Right now they have the sedan grey and the plasma blue hatch. I think they just sold a blue hatch but im not sure if its still there or not.

the dealership just sold the car i wanted to someone else, now they want to sell me their limited satin white 5 door...looks like the only way i can get the color i want is to place an order.

good luck friend

i can tell you from my experience anyway, that if you find the car you want and know what you are willing to pay, then jump on it. they do sell quickly.

I'll send a pic on the sticker and the sales order

So I decided to eliminate DGM from my list since there are none in Virginia. I'm thinking about getting an Ice Silver since I haven't seen anyone with it in NOVA

SWP is the best color

Sticker with options and delivery 27,004. Sales sheet (a little hard to read) so I'll add some detail - original sales price OTD 24,500.11. The car the dealer got for me had fogs and locking wheel nuts which I paid at cost (actually I ended up not paying for the lugs - not sure why). The 289.89 that he listed on the DOC line are the fog lamps. So the total before sales tax and title fee was 24,790.00.

If I were to do it again I'd probably save the 289.89 - the fogs are really poor - must be an upgrade lamp somewhere. Hope this helps - Good luck.

right now there are 955 new wrxs on cars.com - just one of the mega sites. Somebody wants to sell you a car at a price you're willing to pay. I paid just about invoice or below (they have a bunch of incentives and hold-backs that they don't tell you about). Bottom line is you should never have to pay retail (although a lot of people do).

OTD means out the door price which was a good bit more than $24,789 that you said.
