| jianxiang from EDMONTON, AB reported on Tuesday, November 01, 2011, buying a 2012 Subaru Forester, and saving $1,000 off of MSRP. Vehicle - budget, space, safety. I had a budget of after tax all included budget of 35,000 for the car, with 2011 cash incentives, I decided to go with 2011 Forester. however, due to lack of inventory, there was no longer 2011 model available when I decided to buy, I raised my budget by 2000 and went with 2012 model. I am 6'1, and I appreciate a good head room and leg room. after comparing Rav4, Tiguan, Escape, and Forester, It was down to Forester due to depreciation value and budget. Dealer I started with Rally Subaru. they were great until I decided to buy, and they asked me for a "good faith" deposit. i.e. when I negotiate price with the sales rep, he ask me for the deposit for him to bring the price to his manager. I was unimpressed, and left with anger. I did my research online and found this good faith deposit would take my bargain power away as the deposit is nonrefundable with lots fineprints. Then a friend referred Ken Hutzal to me. Ken is pretty nice and was respectful. There was no good faith deposit at Subaru City, and they were great on negotiation and showed their "good faith" to make the deal. |  | |
| RAYMOND from Edmonton, AB reported on Wednesday, May 23, 2012, buying a 2012 Subaru Forester, and saving $1,500 off of MSRP. Both Edmonton Dealerships are owned by the same family so they don't like to negotiate. I have family in Lethbridge so I used my Car Cost report to negotiate a price here which Subaru City reluctantly met. My sales guy says they don't usually negotiate but will price match other dealers and mentioned that they usually compete with Centaur Subaru in Calgary because they are willing to "give cars away". Bottom line if you want a good deal get a quote from outside the city. |  | |
| Christopher from Edmonton, AB reported on Friday, September 23, 2011, buying a 2012 Subaru Forester, and saving $1,000 off of MSRP. Claimed freight cost $140 more than CarCostCanada's claims, but admitted the wholesale price was accurate. Dealer not willing to budge much on price, but overall buying experience was better than I expected. Had been warned about VIN etching fees and the like at Subaru City, but they were quick to wave those. | | |
| Raymond from Edmonton, AB reported on Thursday, August 11, 2011, buying a 2011 Subaru Forester, and saving $1,000 off of MSRP. Chose Subaru City mainly because it was only 1 of 2 local dealers. We agreed on 4.5% markup from CCC but they also tried to add in their doc fee and a "road warranty fee" |  | |
| Anne from Alberta, AB reported on Tuesday, October 04, 2011, buying a 2011 Subaru Forester, and saving $1,500 off of MSRP. I started with 3% above wholesale but their wholesale did not include a few items. Suggest you know the wholesale price from CarCostCanada and ask up front what their wholesale price actually is ie. what does it include or not include comaparatively and then do the 3%. It helps to know what the finance rates are ahead of time. You can go in with more confidence on what you can or cannot afford. | | |

| Daniel from Edmonton, AB reported on Wednesday, August 04, 2010, buying a 2010 Subaru Forester, and saving $1,500 off of MSRP. The dealership was very professional, they let you take your time in your decision making and they were very fair in the negotiating process. | | |

| Yvonne from Edmonton, AB reported on Friday, April 10, 2009, buying a 2009 Subaru Forester, and saving $500 off of MSRP. Subaru refused to negotiate on the price of the vehicle. Sales rep was a full of crap. I really wanted this particular car though so I put up with everything and bought it. |  | |

| paula from sherwood park, AB reported on Monday, January 23, 2012, buying a 2012 Subaru Impreza, and saving $1,500 off of MSRP. I took the wholesale price report and put it down on the desk in front of the salesman. He smiled and said "ok yes we can work with this, about 30% of customers come to us with this report. After going back and forth 2x I paid cost plus 4% and 10% off accessories. I was pleased and it was a good experience. Travis is young and hip and he'll convince you on a subaru. | | |
| Adelbert from Edmonton, AB reported on Friday, October 07, 2011, buying a 2011 Subaru Impreza, and saving $1,000 off of MSRP. By adding 5% to the invoice price of the vehicle, we went into negotiations aiming to reduce the price by $1400. Due to the popular and relative "niche" nature of the vehicle I expected that they would not lower the price by much, however, we were able to negotiate the inclusion of accessories that we wanted in the price of the purchase. In the end, we saved $970. We were able to have the dealer "throw in" $900 worth of accessories that we were going to purchase anyway (short throw shifter, short throw bushing, window tint), plus reduce the price of two additional accessories by 10% (rear view mirror with homelink and roof rails)...that was an additional $70 in savings. The sales rep did not use high pressure sales tactics, which was nice. However, be firm regarding adding or excluding options that you do or don't want (e.g. paint protection package, security package, extended warranty). | | |

| Michael from Edmonton, AB reported on Wednesday, March 10, 2010, buying a 2010 Subaru Impreza, and saving $1,000 off of MSRP. Sales manager was less frenetic; mentioning carcostcanada as my research immediately took the gamesmanship out of the discussion. They agreed the dealer cost was correct and we settled on 4.5% as the acceptable # between 3% and 6%. Dealer had fixed cost of $400 each for documentation and tire hazard. Both are bogus but I was only able to exclude one of them. | | |

| Nicholas from Edmonton, AB reported on Tuesday, January 06, 2009, buying a 2009 Subaru Impreza, and saving $1,000 off of MSRP. This is our second Impreza, the first one was purchased in January of 2007. Neither dealer in Edmonton would budge on the price so I contacted a Calgary dealer using the carcostcanada price report as a basis for negotiation. For our second one here (purchased Dec 2008) I contacted Subaru City and explained what happened with our last purchase and why we chose not to deal with them. They were much more receptive and willing to negotiate and didn't try to tack anything on. In both cases, I did both deals entirely over the phone | | |
| Daphne from Edmonton, AB reported on Thursday, June 04, 2009, buying a 2009 Subaru Impreza, and saving $3,000 off of MSRP. | | |
| Jason from Edmonton, AB reported on Friday, May 08, 2009, buying a 2009 Subaru Impreza, and saving $2,000 off of MSRP. The dealership will be fully aware of CarCostCanada; don't try to hide anything on your print-out when you bring in the report. Be open and up front from the start, and let them know that you are willing to shop around to find the dealer that will meet or come closest to your offer price (such as $1000 above MSRP etc or whatever you decide is a fair profit for the dealership). | | |
| Steve from Edmonton, AB reported on Saturday, May 10, 2008, buying a 2008 Subaru Impreza, and saving $2,000 off of MSRP. | | |
| Brian from Edmonton, AB reported on Thursday, September 20, 2007, buying a 2008 Subaru Impreza, and saving $500 off of MSRP. Do your research and don't be in a rush. Having the Wholesale Price Report will help keep them honest. |  | |
| Jason from Edmonton, AB reported on Thursday, September 27, 2007, buying a 2008 Subaru Impreza, and saving $1,500 off of MSRP. The Sales Rep was excellent, the Manager seemed like a decent guy willing to work on a fair deal. The Finance/Up sell dept was not so up to par. She talks to you like you're in Kindergarden trying to make you believe you need the undercoating and all the rest of that overpriced crap. It was a great experience until it came to listening to that. | | |
| Chad from St. Albert, AB reported on Saturday, September 29, 2007, buying a 2008 Subaru Impreza, and saving $1,000 off of MSRP. | | |
| Joe from St. Albert, AB reported on Saturday, September 22, 2007, buying a 2008 Subaru Impreza, and saving $500 off of MSRP. Knowing the wholesale cost was useful, and did help in negotiations. However, the savings were less than I'd hoped in part because the car is a new and popular model. The Subaru dealer was packed on all of our visits with potential customers with the competing makes we shopped much less so. I feel that under the circumstances we did all right. | | |

| Sean from St. Albert, AB reported on Thursday, October 16, 2008, buying a 2009 Subaru Legacy, and saving $2,500 off of MSRP. We previously purchased a vehicle from the dealership and have been very satisfied with the service. We utilized the Wholesale Price Report to establish the base price we were willing to pay (allowing a dealer profit of 5%) and managed to negotiate a deal very quickly, whereby we managed to save in excess of $2500 off the MSRP, plus an additional $1000 in stackable dealer credits. | | |
| Jean-Francois from Edmonton, AB reported on Saturday, January 17, 2009, buying a 2009 Subaru Legacy, and saving $2,500 off of MSRP. Easy negotiation with CCC price report. Gave a reasonable mark-up over invoice, deducted incentives and we had a deal. | | |

| Henry from Morinville, Alberta Can, AB reported on Saturday, March 15, 2008, buying a 2008 Subaru Tribeca, and saving $9,000 off of MSRP. The savings include a $7000 rebate from the manufacturer but the dealer wasn't going to offer anymore reduction until I mentioned the carcostcanada quote. The gave me an additional $1200 off. Very pleased with the results. | | |
