Price......it's official !!

The link posted earlier by myself on i-club was to an official SOA communication "leaked" (or should we say reported prematurely) by a Suby dealership on NASIOC.com. Similar independent postings confirming this price were later reported on NASIOC and other STi-related sites. The conjecture is that this SOA press release was drawn up for the NY auto show..........it is definitely official, even if it's not on the SOA website yet.........if you don't wanna believe it, that's your prerogative.

Yet another link, to yet another Suby dealer (not the same dealer who posted on NASIOC) confirming the price. Furthermore he states that this information is readily available to ANY DEALER via the SOA dealer website (not a public-access website).

Limited Edition?
If that dealer is going to have more than one (let alone a half dozen) is there really going to be that big of a shortage of them? I know the numbers they said they're going to produce, and in CO you're probably a higher volume area for Subaru... but let's see how many dealers DON'T get one. Who knows...

My dealer has given me a written and signed agreement that the price will be at msrp, with no dealer installed options, and I get first pick on the first car they recieve. If the dealers in your immediate neighborhood are not co-operating, look a little further. Most dealers will sell out of state.
Stop worrying and get it in writing!

Yup, talked to the folks at my dealership today and they confirmed the price as well. Speaking to the sales manager he didn't think the car would be here until mid June, unless they just start shipping them and don't go through the normal allotment processes. Now all we need to do is wait for the options info!

Well if the markup is anything like dealers around where I live you be getting screwed if you want the car. I just bought my 03 WRX 3 months ago and they told me they would do it at MSRP.
Well that was a lie; they rushed my *** through the finance guy so fast because he needed to leave (Yeah Right). Well anyway the ended up charging me $2000 over MSRP. I was pissed after I signed and noticed and they just gave me the run around and said it was because they took a loss on my RS. B.S. well I called Subaru and tried to raise hell but didn't get very far. They did have me come in and never admitted that they did me wrong but offered to compensate me with some accessories, so I figured what they hell might as well get what I can. I end up getting about $500. with accessories.
Then it gets better I have yet to receive any paperwork regarding my payments. This is a lease so I call Chase Finance and they told me that I wasn't into their computer yet. So I call for the next few weeks and still nothing? Then I call one last time when my second payment is suppose to be do and they told me that I should call the dealer because this is very strange.
So next I called the dealer and the finance person told me that they would investigate and return my call within an hour. Well 2 days go by and still no call from the dealer. So I call the dealership again and speak to the finance person that closed my contract. Well he gives me some crappy story about how I leased the car in Oregon and they’re having a problem with the taxes due to the fact that I live in Washington State. I tell them well you never said anything when we did the deal and I told you I lived in Washington. I also told them you even figured out the tax for the contract. The finance guy tells me well the numbers didn't match up so we are working with the bank to fix. I'll give you a call in a few days and will have you come in to resign a new contract. He also tells me 27 of my payments will be higher and 21 will be a little lower and I need to have my 2 payments when I come to the dealer. I said OK just to get off the phone. Well now a week has went by and still no contact from the dealer? So now I don't know what the hell is going on or where the hell I stand? I would love jus to give the car back and go buy a new 04WRX or even a STI but I am not sure where I stand. Well if anyone has any thoughts please fell free to let me know.
Okay I'll stop venting, yes I think that's a great price for the STI but I don't think I'll be lucky to get one for that price from a dealer around where I live.

akadubin, who's your dealer? Are they big seller? 6 cars sounds like quite a few considering the rumors floating about concerning dealership allotments..

I'm getting my car at Shortline Subaru here in Aurora, Colorado. They claim to be one of the largest subaru dealerships in the denver area.
I agree with you, six cars in june sounds like a ton. I hope he is correct with his information. As with everything else, we can only wait and see!

Six cars for one dealer is not a lot. My dealer in Toronto is getting 10 for the June shipment. Stiaddict: Are you sure you didn't buy that car from Toronto? They want to charge everyone 5,000.00 over MSRP! and I'm the only one against it! Everyone else as I explained in earlier threads couldn't care less what it costs because they're so rich here. I'll have to see what happens.

In case anyone cares, my dealership will be selling them for sticker. No markups. We are supposed to be getting 2 per month, starting in (I believe) June. Possibly July.
Please feel free to come and buy one from me!
