Hi all,
I had two major obstacles stopping me from buying a WRX:
1) My wife2) I can't drive a stick (yet) :)
Just sold the wife on the WRX because the road we now live on -- 4 miles of dirt road -- has completely destroyed my 95 Taurus. Engine mounts are shot and there's about $1000 worth of work to fix the oil leaks, tranny leaks, etc. She's now talking about visiting the Subaru dealership.
I stopped in at Pitre Subaru (Phoenix, AZ) yesterday to check out there WRX lineup. With a few exceptions, all the sticker prices seem to be at $25,876 (including destination).
What should I expect to pay if I wheel and deal? Is invoice somewhere around $23,500?
Also, is it true I have more negotiating power around Xmas time because it's the end of the year and the dealer is scrambling to hit quota? Any other negotiation tips? Do Subaru dealers work with holdback, etc?
Thanks!
