I bought my '11 way back in August for $500 under invoice at Carlsen Subaru. Shoot lfung@carlsensubaru.dealerspace.com (Larry Fung) an email.

I also know there are at least 2 '11 WRXs at Putnam Subaru in San Mateo/Burlingame. I drive by there a couple times a week. I think they're red and blue, and one is a sedan, couldn't see all the of other one.

Does TrueCar pricing work? I know there aren't many '11s available so I'm wondering if it their price certificates will help in any way.
no, trueCar is crap, it gave me a cert saying a dealer in napa can give it to me for 50 over invoice and I checked and they don't even have any WRXs and nothing in transit and called them and they quote me the invoice like 500 lower than msrp!!! I was like really?!?! but capitol and stevens creek get all the WRX/STI's coming to the area (most of them) so ur best bet is to find what u lie on their website when it's still in transit and try to play with the price and add ons, also all the 11's now come with short throw shifter and most of them have SPT exhaust, I tried Socal and out of state with no luck on lower price, that's if u find any...

Was talking to Ryan about it and he said that they sell before they're off the truck. Same thing at Stevens Creek... they had 4 on the lot. 3 were sold. 1 sold in a day or two after that.

I'd be patient, supply is about to start picking up.
I was there saturday, did u get that green forester off the showroom floor?

Ended up just going to the dealer and annoy the crap out of the sales guy and the manager, best I could do was 500 under msrp and throw in roof rack and all season floor mats, and trust me, I tried every dealer in CA, from a little town in san Diego to long beach to Denver, this was the best I could find, pm me if u end up going to Capitol or Stevens creek, I'll tell u who to talk to

500 under msrp seems to be the going rate for a 5 door premium...shopped around all weekend.

With the 2012 model coming out soon, it may be better to wait.

^With the low supply and high demand, i don't think dealers are selling at TrueCar or Costco Rates, no?

My bro bought a 2011 DGM Sedan WRX Premium w/ 3 miles I think. 30k iirc. He was anxious for his car and wanted to get a sedan and no one had them. About a month after he bought it there were a few wrx/STi's around the same price and in sedan. lol

I'm working on getting a car through Putnam in Burlingame right now.
Orders will be placed (it is hoped) starting on Aug 1st.
They have one black WRX and one red STi on the lot (as of Sat 7/9) both are sedans.
I am buying via the Costco program and they are honoring that ($500 below inv, no haggling).
Stevens Creek had one 5dr STi at that time.

So you'll be placing an order on a 2012 premium, base, limited? Order in August, receive maybe October-ish? For $500 below invoice, it might be a good idea to wait.
