The dealer at the Rankin Road (north Houston) Gillman has a blue one (as mentioned earlier here) priced at $43k+.

Priced into the car:

Alpine System
Pinstripe
STI emblem on the grill
Window etching theft deterrance
Fog Lights
Lojack
Paint Sealant
Fabric protector
7 year extended warranty

Opinions?

 

The only thing I'd pay more markup for than that loaded STi would be an EVO in Southern California!

 

sent ya a PM Daytona

 

I work at a subaru dealership..................if I wanted to buy one I am going to have to pay sticker............plus the paint seal. They are awsome cars but the supply and demand About 8 people come a day to try and buy one. If you sti guys are going to meet................My neighbor bought one "wants to chill with suby guys"

 

which subaru dealer do you work at? I am searching for an STI. Tough to find one.

 

I work at gillman south.................they are hard to find! IF you put 500 dollars down ............they will honor the sticker price........but your going to have to pay the 600 somthing for the paint sealent/window etch. I decided to get one but I am 34 on the list We should get the most stis in houston...........and I think that alot of people will drop off the list. The car is sweet in person

 

so, if you order, they will honor Msrp?, but what happens if you are not on the list (did not order)? cannot get one at all? Even if there may be a STI on the floor? (dumb question probably)

 

Yup they will honor the sticker if you order one. If you dont and one ends up on the showroom.........expect to pay over sticker...The chances of finding one on the show rooms is nill. I would try to get on the list as soon as possible. I am going to the subaru ride n drive "get to race around a race track with the sti" I will finally get to see the power of the sti

 

yes, I guess there is no way in hell a person on the list would lose his position (not buy the car). damn, we will never see one conveniently displayed at a dealer!

have you seen or heard about markups over msrp in Houston?

 

Don't let them pull any crap on you. The car comes with security and mirror which puts the price at 32497. That sealer bs is for nothing. My car has none of it on the bottom. Furthermore, it will add 10 pounds to the car. Save it for the sound system. If you want a blue and glod email me because my name is still on one at another dealership and it's at MSRP.

I took mine off the lot so quick they didn't have time to take off the booties and plastic of the undercarriage!

Fight with them. Just talk to the general manager he's anglo and not that much of a a**hole.

 

Different stis come with different options..................some of them dont have the security system.........subaru puts that on.............the seal protection is put at our store............5 year warrenty.............everyone thinks its just some bs charge "but they dont know what they are talking about" Look at other colors........................blue doesnt look that good.........white/black are just plain eye openers

 

MSRP, $500 fully refundable deposit, NO PROTECTION PACKAGE BS(we wax at detail, and a $4 can of ScotchGuard is the rest...there's nothing i've come across for the front seats...ALL subies are UNDERCOATED AT THE FACTORY!!!). no "ADD ONS", no DEALER PREP fees, NO MARK UP. no other hidden anything!! i know there's a bunch of you who were "promised" MSRP and got a shock when you went in to get your STi....not the case here. i'll prove and show it, if needed.
i should be getting 4-6 more, with 4 on my list left. i've got one that doesn't reply back to me, and another that isn't quite ready for finances yet. NOBODY can guarantee time of delivery/colors/options. looks as though most of you have noticed your MSRP prices aren't guaranteed either.
no games here.
i'm in clear lake, so make a kemah day out of it:-)

hey wrxmaster do you know what number on the list they are on cuz my mom is #16 and the phone number they hav don' work no more my mom changed it can you plz help me

 

ok, I understand now. This is how it works. The "list" is really a list of cars not people. For example, if the #11 person on the list drops off (can't get financing or whatever), the car that was 11th in arriving to the dealer will be offered to the #12 person. However, that #11 car can also be up for grabs by anyone coming into the showroom. The #12 person can wait for the #12 car from the manufacturer to the dealer (and pay MSRP) OR possibly pay higher (over msrp) for the #11 car.

I hope I did not confuse anyone. But I can't think of how else it would work especially since a car cannot technically end up on the showroom when there are quite a few people "next" on the list.

The only way it would work is if the car was held (HELD) for the next person in line and the next person, etc until the car is purchased (at MSRP). No one outside of the list should be able to buy it.

If my assumption is incorrect, please let me know.
