Timing belt cost

What is the dealer cost to replace the timing belt and water pump on the



2.5L SOHC Forester engine?

If you're asking what it costs the dealer to do this, I don't know. If you're asking what it costs the customer to do this at a dealer, my dealer (Evanston, IL) replaced our timing belt for $319 with a coupon (we have the 2.5L in an Outback, but the coupon was valid on any Subaru). If I recall correctly, the water pump was another $150 parts and labor while the belt was off. I don't recall the itemized costs, but we also replaced the belt tensioner and one of the seals (I assume the head gasket). All told, I think the bill was about $750.
