If you're in the market for a new Subaru car, visit Edmunds.com to locate the best deals from a Subaru dealer in your area. Subaru dealerships offer unconventional machines for the car buyer who wants something out of the ordinary. Built around horizontally-opposed four- and six-cylinder engines and all-wheel drive, the Impreza and Legacy sedans and wagons look normal, but raise their ride height and do some redecorating and the wagons become Outback models. Throw on a turbocharger and rally tune the Impreza and it becomes the WRX. Take the WRX add a bigger engine with more power and it transforms into the WRX STi. Then there's the Forester and larger B9 Tribeca SUVs and the Baja that's almost a truck. The easiest way to locate a reliable Subaru dealer in your area is to visit Edmunds.com.

Buying a car from a Subaru Car Dealer
Dear Car Man, Could you please let me know what the MF and RV for May 2011 are for a Subaru Outback 2.5i Limited? Also, what is the invoice on an Outback like this?
The SF design is dated, if you like that platform I'd actually recommend a Kia Sorento instead. The Subie is a bit more upscale, but Kia offers a lot of bang for the buck. My brother was shopping and we drove an Optima and a Sportage. We both liked the Sportage better. My brother wanted a manual trans, and that forces FWD, and base models only, so he ended up with a Forester Premium/AWP. Subaru lets you get a well equipped model and still keep the manual. As mentioned above, Subaru resale is proven and very strong: https://www.alg.com/deprratings.aspx 4-5 stars for Subaru, 2-3 stars for Kia. So don't be suckered in by the low price, you should calculate TCO instead, because depreciation is steep. Odds are the Subaru will cost less to own in the long run, particularly a Forester, which is closer to a Santa Fe anyway.
Car man - do you happen to have the credit tiers for Subaru?
Hyundai has come a long way from being known as a "Throwaway" car but the reliability and resale value have not changed since then. If you are only looking at the "Bells and Whistles" and the 100K warranty (which is not transferable), you have fallen for the gimmick marketing that has made them very successful. People that buy Subarus are not drawn by a cheap price as they can usually afford to buy whatever they want, they are drawn by value not gimmicks. Post another message when you try to trade it in five years and it is worth $245.00. I sell Subarus and we cringe when someone brings their Hyundai, Kia or Suzuki in to trade. There is no such thing as a Hyndai High Mileage Club as the generally don't last long enough. Used Hyndais are a dime a dozen, literally, try finding used Subarus !!
Why do you think this is a good deal? Subaru owners have to be stupid or part of a cult! Hyundai Santa fe with all the bells and whistles, V6, SE tow hitch, blue tooth, remote start, etc and a 100,000 mile warranty for $24,500. Why even look at a Subaru?
