Did anyone else get this deal in the mail from Subaru?

Subaru mailed me this cash voucher deal in the mail.


The scoop:

If I trade in my old car (an '04 WRX). I could use this 10,000 Cash bonus or voucher to buy a new '04 or '05.


The first thing I thought was: STI
The second thing I thought: what color?

But then I came down from cloud STI (yes it is right next to cloud 9) realizing the insurance for the beast would be outrageous for my budget.

"One day I will make her mine, one day...."

 

Wow, that sounds pretty good. If i get one i may have to go to the dealer and work some numbers. I may end up with the same payment on an 05 sti as i have on my 04 wrx. I could care less about insurance it'd be woth it. BTW will a 04' Stromung TBE fit an 05 STi?

 

wow...how'd you get the voucher? i want one

 

Try calling SOA, and tell them that a friend of yours got one in New Hampshire. And you want to know what is up.


Maybe I have good credit, or maybe my loan rate is low and they are gonna try to get me to refi at a higher rate. Maybe I have sucker written on my forehead.

 

You sure its a cash voucher? Not a coupon to guarantee at least $10,000 trade in value for you WRX?

 

yea, i'm pretty sure thats what it is, cuz I got one also...

 

I'd double check the fine print. Almost every offer from SOA that I've seen exludes the STI, and I wouldn't doubt it if this one does too. However, if I'm wrong (it's been known to happen) then this is a good deal. 10k should offset any negative equity from your trade, and should give you some left over for a down payment. It almost sounds too good to be true.

 

That is why I asked if anyone else got one. I will look at it again closely.


However I hate these sneaky things with: and,or,but,if,then clauses.

Like you said almost to good to be true.

 

Yeah,

Like on the back of the voucher in small print, in some foreign language it says for trade in value.

 

I got a "voucher" for a guaranteed trade in of $12.5K. I thought WTF... my car as is is worth more than that. I subsequently tossed the letter into the recycle bin. Two weeks later I got another one...

 

if its not too much trouble can you scan it and post here?(personal info delete if any)

i'm curious to see what the deatails are... and there are always details .
sometimes reasonable, sometimes not.
