I've thought about this a bit... it's hard to describe the difference. All of my other car buying experiences have had an element of playing a game or maybe some sort of bizarre performance art. At AutoNation Suburu West, it was just a civil negotiation. Yea, I spent a lot of time sitting around, but most of that was while they were evaluating my trade-in. I asked for $1000 more on my trade-in and got it. And, there really was no negotiation needed for the Forester, they offered me a fair - no - fantastic price well under dealer's invoice. I'm sure the fact that it was just about the last 2017 Forester on the lot had a lot to do with the offer. My salesperson, Allen S., was very chill, and had a really good grasp of all the features on the car and how they function. He gave me a pretty good review of these despite the fact that he had another customer waiting. One thing I would suggest... with all the electronics and technology on today's vehicles, auto makers should start offering classes. I suppose Suburu probably has videos online...I have not checked that out yet. I would go to an actual class, though, but I suppose that's old school!
