max6spd Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 What do you think of this deal? 2010 LGT Limited with 760 miles for $29k out the door with tax, title, and all fees. NYS tax is kinda high at 8.775% so it comes out to $26,600 for the car itself. No options other than the spoiler and floor mats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Marker Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Sounds great. Be sure to go on a highway test drive and push it over 70mph. 2011 Volvo S60T6 & 2013 Volvo XC60T6 Polestar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteWK Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Sounds great. Be sure to go on a highway test drive and push it over 70mph. +1 Get as long a test drive as you can wrangle. Only a very small percentage of the cars have a shimmy or rattle or whatever (mine doesn't) but you want to be sure yours doesn't. Right now there are just about zero 2011 LGTs on dealer lots. Expect that to change in a few weeks and expect that you won't get a deal anywhere near that good. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max6spd Posted November 1, 2010 Author Share Posted November 1, 2010 Cool. I got them to install the media hub and short shifter added on to the price. So, I think I'm going to pull the trigger. Anybody have anything else I should take a look at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max6spd Posted November 2, 2010 Author Share Posted November 2, 2010 Crap. Dealership sold it from under me. On the search for another one. Should I settle for a 3.6R since there appears to be a whole more availability? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I settle for a 3.6R since there appears to be a whole more availability? That's the worst word you can use when car shopping.... "settle". Don't settle for a 3.6R just b/c you missed out on a GT. If you really want a GT, shop around and take your time (as long as your current car still works). Although I have a 3.6R and love it. 2011 Volvo S60T6 & 2013 Volvo XC60T6 Polestar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max6spd Posted November 2, 2010 Author Share Posted November 2, 2010 Well, I sold my car already and I need one. I found the perfect 3.6R Limited. Full loaded with moonroof and NAV. 7k on the ODO for less than $26k. Its in the color I want. Just not a stick. As much as I love driving a stick, I think a change to an auto might be nice, especially, in NYC traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming it's a 2010. See if you can get them to swap out the fixed side mirrors for the new fold able ones. Also if you go 3.6R, you'll only have to buy regular fuel. Always a plus. 2011 Volvo S60T6 & 2013 Volvo XC60T6 Polestar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apathetic_one Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Magic, how is the gas mileage on your car vs the spec 18/25/20 for regular daily driveing? I've seen some numbers from GT drivers on here that really beat the 25 on road trips. Haven't seen much about daily suburb commute mileage though. Of course, anything beats my Jeep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even bother looking at the in car calculator. I bought a 3.6R to be quick and have fun; not for the MPG's. If I really cared about MPG's I wouldn't have sold my 96 Civic. Overall, my daily commute is short and I probably get around 20-21 as I don't need the highway to get to work. 2011 Volvo S60T6 & 2013 Volvo XC60T6 Polestar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apathetic_one Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 I understand, still tossing around possibilities, since my wife is a fan of automatic. I haven't had a manual in almost 11 years now, getting itchy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shribob Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 I understand, still tossing around possibilities, since my wife is a fan of automatic. I haven't had a manual in almost 11 years now, getting itchy. I think the dealer where I purchased my LGT (still waiting for it), may still have a 2010 LGT on their lot. I remember a great price on it, around $26k + TTL. I would search Liberty Subaru in Emerson, which may not be too much of a drive for you. If you have questions about pricing, shoot Clayton an email (internet sales), he helped me with my car. Mention my name, he knows I constantly nag him about when my car will arrive.

max6spd Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 How's about a silver 2010 LGT with navi and moonroof and less than 12k miles for $25,788? Bottom line price. Same price (same dealership) and same options as the white 3.6R Limited w/ 8k miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
