Not bad but not great. I know Subaru deals have tightened up a bit recently up here but still worth shopping.

If you haven’t already, check the numbers from Subaru of Puyallup and Eastside Subaru.

Thank you. I did check with Eastside and they have a similar offer. Puyallup has been higher. Are there any other benefits that the dealers offer (incentives, post purchase services)in Seattle area?

Unfortunately not that I’m aware of.

I took a deal with monthly payment for 2021 touring at $401 (including tax) with $1100 drive off (first month payment + license + doc fee). The dealer did mention a mandatory service requirement every 6 months and a prepaid service plan for planned service costs. That added another $50 (inclusive of tax) to this :frowning:

What dealer is this?

The deal on the car seems reasonable. But…

There is zero mandatory maintenance package. It needs regular oil changes during the lease - that’s it. 50x36 is $1800 and there is no way you will spend that much on oil changes, tire rotations, and the occasional brake fluid and/or coolant flush.

I’d cancel that.
