so after months upon months of searching i found a dealer willing to sell me a wrx or tr at 100 above invoice. my question now is,..to the people that have seen the new 07 is there any other difference besides the ipod thing and the new colors(which i love) correct me if i am wrong but someone said the sti limited colors are available on the regular models or was it just on the 2.5i????
well i was told i can get the 07 at the same price as the 06, i just wont get my low financing. if i get the 06 i get the 4.9% but if i get the 07 it will be 7 or 8%. I plan on refinancing with my credit union in a years time anyways. so can someone tell me how much i lose paying the higher interest rate for a year???? why dont i finance with the credit union in the first place you ask? well i cant get approved for enough through them now, they have strict regulations so you dont get yourself in trouble. for instance they will only allow you to finance an amount that will leave you paying only 30% of your monthly income, so as of now i can only get a loan for 18k through them but since my credit is good (722) i can finance what i want with subaru. Also would it be better to have a really low mileage 06 when i want to trade or average miled 07??? from what i have looked at on kbb.com it appears a low mileage car only gets you a small increase in value.
also i would be buying in california and i live in nevada,....anyone heard about not being able to take delivery at the time of the deal. the dealer says they have to deliver it to me in nevada.......anyone heard of that?
sorry if this is pretty confusing but i am confused as well.
thanks in advance.

06 has better suspension bits

06 has better suspension bits

more info please

where are you located? i got my limited wagon at 500 under invoice with 4.9. you can find a better deal then that. Every dealer i went to in OH was willing to give me at least invoice on a WRX.

as far as 06/07, if you can't get better then that deal, then i would go for 07, esp if you have an ipod or something.

i live in nevada,...as said in the original post.
buying in california.

more info please

As a cost-cutting measure, Subaru reverted the WRX control arms and rear lateral links from aluminum to cast steel.

Sigh, what costs are they gonna cut for 2008..:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

NO way! :eek: that really sucks!
I'm a happy 06 owner! :D
07 SUCKS! :lol:

So... does that mean the arms and links are heavier but stronger?

Stronger? have those parts ever been a strength issue?

Some guys who are running HUGE front swaybars on the '06's have had the sway mount points on the control arms break...

That's only part of the story. Yes, the swaybar mounting points are breaking off on both WRX's and STI's, but it's only happening on cars running the Strano 32mm FSB w/ r-comp tires. The bushings the bar comes with aren't very durable or strong, and allow the FSB to rub against the control arms in high g corners. Overtime, this is leading to the breakage...

If you drive on street tires or get a stiffer coilover suspension, this doesn't happen (you can also use the 29mm Whiteline FSB with r-comps w/o any worries)

Thanks for clearing that up. The 'competitve in DS' thread is where I saw that information, and I figured it was probably something specific to that bar.
