Hello,

I'm going to the dealer in the next days to get a Crosstrek but, before I do, I'd like to get some input from you guys experts here.

If I go to subaru.com I see they have there the 2019 Crosstrek while they have 2020 models for the rest. We are looking for a Premium Crosstrek and as the 2020 comes with the EyeSight standard, if I'm not mistaken, for the automatic one, we would like to get one of those. But, not seeing it on the website makes me think that that car might not be ready yet? Anybody has an idea when, in reality, those 2020 models will be really in the dealers?

Do you think dealers are willing to get rid of 2019 models by including the EyeSight accessory for free?

How much below the sticker price can I push in this Subaru world? I'm new to Subaru. From previous cars (Honda, Toyota), we were able to go quite below sticker... but not sure with this brand.

Appreciate the help in order to prepare to the dealer visit,

Thanks,

Regards,

Fran

Go get some prices now and see what they say and do for you in your given market.  Get to know your dealers - the local market will vary considerably.

around here you won’t get a good financial deal from the high volume dealer in town. The two other dealers 20-40 miles away often have far better pricing. Some cities see the opposite dynamic and have great high volume dealers that price well.  

Subaru sales and demand are high, Crosstek demand is high and the novelty of getting in line for that first of the given model year is a known viable monetizable commodity.  And it’s winter and tax season.  Very little is in your favor unless you live in a Subaru ghost town or get lucky timing/inventory/floor plan/volume/know someone...etc  

Toyota’s and Honda’s aren’t always easily talked down in price depending on many variables listed above. I’ve seen Toyota dealers with nearly no desire to budge on RAV4 pricing.

There’s a crosstek forum as well and that will be smaller than many but they often have threads that somewhat compile Real time pricing that people are paying.
