2022 Subaru Outback Premium Lease Review

I have been speaking with some dealers and got a deal on a 2022 Subaru Outback Premium

MSRP $32,929
$442/month
10,000 miles per year/36 months
mf .00155
Region: NJ
zipcode: 07307
$1510 total due at signing:
-First Month Payment
-Bank Acquisition Fee
-Sales tax on upfront fees

No DMV registration included

Is this a good deal?

What was the sales price?

Seems higher than previous deals posted here. Are you getting any discount on the selling price? 5% seems to be a fair target based on other posts.

I don’t see a deal here

You don’t have a selling price but if my calculator is correct it seems like the Listhackr special:

A Volvo V60CC will be the the same or cheaper. So no, it is not.

Where are you finding a v60cc for that price?

Marketplace forum there are Volvo brokers.

I leased a non-CC in April $0 due at signing, $463/month, $50,120 MSRP.

Ah okay. April is significantly different from today’s market.

April was a lifetime ago.

Like others have said, the market has changed drastically over the course of the last year, let alone four months.

Even looking at your deal from April, which seems descent on face value. I leased a $60k V90 CC loaner 6 months before you signed your lease. My deal is a 36/10k for $409 per month ($468 w/ tax).

This market is night and day difference from last year, let alone 4-5 months ago. Also, even during “normal” times there are still always other variables that make it difficult to truly compare (incentives, MF, residual, etc.)

wow great deal, its impossible to even find that car today in ny/nj

I sold my Ltd XT back in April of this year…leased it in December 2019…the center stack touchscreen is an absolute nightmare…plus I had massive connectivity issues with my phones. Comfy seats and very practical though!

I was paying $470 inclusive of 9.5% LA tax…zero drive off, 36/12 on a $39.5K car…and I thought it was a poor value. Not a great lease either…but I don’t think others were doing much better at the time.

I’d get a Forester instead (which I have)…by far Subaru’s best car, IMHO. And actual knobs and switches.

unfortunately almost all Subaru’s are at sticker :frowning:

Might make sense to buy it and use their special financing rates based on zip code:
2021 @ 0% and 2022 @ 1.9%

Totally but there’s a broker in Marketplace with V60CCs at sub-$400 with $1500 DAS so it’s there.

Yep exactly. Custom ordering and trying to squeeze in a small discount seems like the move.

This is what I have been thinking when it comes to Subaru, in particular the Forester or Crosstrek with the most limited inventories. Worst case scenario, you can do the ASPCA donation for $500 and at least get 2% under invoice on sales price (though you lose some of the discount on the $500 donation). Resale value is typically high on Subaru’s so you will likely be in a decent position a few years down the road when you sell - even after the used car market cools.
