08 OBP STI On THE wayyY!!!!:)

SirMattieP · 04-25-2008, 01:52 PM

Okay boysss, the deal has been done!! 33,950 Base Model 2008 STI Obsidian Black Pearl. I got $600.00 below invoice. I negotiated at Renicks Subaru in Fullerton, my sales rep was very nice and helped me out a lot. The shipment is coming at the end of the month so the car should be avaliable sometime next week! Im really excited and cannot wait. Whats nice is the Subaru dealership in Fullerton has their own performance mods store, where you get a discount on all parts and services. They install, tune, basically everything for cheaper if you baught the car from that specific location which is really nice. For example i asked about the AP and how its selling for $695 on the web, they will give it to me for $645... saving 50 dollars. So all the aftermarket parts i end up buying in the future, hopefully saves me a bundle. Anyways cant wait to join the 08 STI Fellass

congrats. you're going to LOVE your 08. very nice ride.

Great color! Get some rims on it and post some pics.

waktasz · 04-25-2008, 04:13 PM

What options did you get, because that price is certainly not below invoice.

paikman · 04-25-2008, 04:48 PM

Uh you might want to remove the AP pricing thing, as that may get them in trouble. COBB has like a no tolerance on lower than their MSRP thing.
But congrats!

Oh noes !! The 08 sucks, it's horrible should have bought a used 05 - those were the best !!! J/K

Yeah it's a great car, get the AP stage 1 it really smooths it out...

Congrats. I'd be weary about buying mods from a dealer though

kiwachi · 04-28-2008, 03:52 PM

Have you even tried the dealer in Chino Hill. I asked them in March and they offer me a basic one at 33,510 and with bbs at 34,867.

SirMattieP · 04-28-2008, 05:53 PM

Naww i havent but im happy with the purchase, ya know over and done with all the paper work just gotta pick the baby up and im set. Also with the discount on car parts is a big part of whats selling me the car. So hopefully soon i get a call haha Its hard waiting

Soon as you get it, you get to play the waiting game once again, until 1,000 or so miles. Depending on your theory on proper-break-in technique.
