Buying new STI - best dealer prices?
Hey all,
After a 3 year hiatus I'm coming back to Subaru and am planning on buying at 2013 STI 5 door. Back in 2002 I bought a WRX from Carlsen for the at-the-time i-club price of $500 over invoice.
Are similar deals available on the STI? And if so who's doing the best prices now?

ive read that some people have been promised $1000-$1500 under invoice for an STi.
Best price youd get is usually the sticker price out the door which usually equals the invoice+TTL

I wasn't aware that the 2013 models are on their way yet. Any word?
Also, as far as who is doing the best deals..... it all depends on the surrounding competition of the stealerships and who you are dealing with (the salesman and the finance department). Your knowledge is the best weapon, so come prepared with prices of the exact trim and packages on the car you wish to buy.

theres a huge thread about this on iwsti. A bunch of people said larry hooked them up for 1200 less than invoice or better. I bought an 05 sti new there awhile back and they gave me a killer deal.

Yes, it's brand NEW. Has a custom 2,000 clearbra that covers the whole front end so no chips! Still smells new, if someone wants one of the cleanest GD STi out there PM me. All the work on the car was all done at FLI, have almost 20,000 into the car. The New STi are just to big, there to luxury and don't have tha raw feeling the older STi have! They sure look good, look much better then the Evo's. I been waiting for them to make a 2 door version, I'm sure that will never happen.......

I saw someone was told by their dealer the 2013 models would be available to order around nov but the only diff was 125 dollar increase in price no change to car.
new sti for that deal under invoice is insane value, the brakes and the tranny make it worthwhile

So I'm hearing Carlsen is still good and so is Capital Subaru, and that people are getting them under invoice? Is that from dealer rebates from SOA? Would that sort of pricing be available on a brand new 2013?
