Howdy. Part-time lurker here. =) Currently own a '02 OBS. Ready to trade it in (plus my Frontier XE) for a 2005 Forester XT. My first Turbo vehicle. I don't like the new front of the '06. I thought about a '05 WRX, but unenthused of higher insurance cost.

Carlsen has 'the last' 05 F-XT for $24,866 plus fees. Is this a good price? It's A/T btw (so my wife can drive it too). TIA.

 

It's not a bad price for it, but it should go a little lower, seeing that the new model is out. I'd aim for 24,886 OTD.

 

I'd do it. Simply none available anymore. I talked with one of the sales guys, and you're getting a great deal.

 

is this the XT limited (leather, sunroof) or just the XT?

 

Just XT. No leather or sunroof.

 

invoice price is $24,583 and there's $2000 cash back now. You can do much better...
