Perhaps a little more information would be helpful. Manual or
automatic? Limited or not? What other options, if any?

Max I would pay for a new car is invoice plus a couple percent - esp. for a
Legacy - I bought my current car (WRX wagon) for $100 under dealer invoice.

The more popular or new a car is, the harder it is to get close to invoice -
the new Forester XT, for example - though I doubt it has been going for MSRP
like the WRX when it first came out over here, you probably can't get the
dealer to go as close to invoice as you would be with a basic Outback.

Manual - Not Limited - All Wether Package - No ther option available.

So you asked for more details...I gave them, now are you going to have
a answer for me now?

I did get the H6-3.0, but the deal was relevant to your question. The
Suby dealership in Columbus, GA, was offering *all* 2003 Outbacks,
Foresters, and Bajas *at invoice* when I bought my H6 Outback Wagon
there this past June. The purchase had to be from dealer stock or
what they could get from another dealership within a reasonably short
distance.

What the dealer meant as "invoice price" was exactly what was listed
on the Edmunds or Kelley Blue Book websites. There was a dealer
holdback of around $300 in effect at the time, but I didn't get it.
Also, in addition to the usual "destination charge" of $525, I was
charged a "docking fee" of $199. Otherwise, WYSIWYG--no dealer prep
fee or unexpected add-ons. That's one reason I really like Suby
dealerships, compared with others. I also got 24 months of financing
from Subaru at 0% APR. I was going to pay cash, but the salesman
said, "You might as well use Subaru's money for two years."

The official Suby incentives and rebates have changed, apparently. I
just checked the Edmunds site, and it said there is a "cash to
customer" rebate of $1000 on the H6 and $1250 on the 4-cyl Outback
during the month of July. The 0% APR financing is still in effect. My
dealer's website also lists the rebate but no longer advertises
invoice pricing on Outbacks. Invoice prices are still available on
Foresters. Those rebates are listed according to zip code, so YMMV.
These prices are all U.S. $.

I got the '03 Wagon (All Weather Package, 5 speed, Silver ; )
for $20,100 . Great deal I think. I did my research and played a
couple dealerships against each other. The first dealership tried to
do a "bait and switch" on me. The original price they wanted was
$19,988, but when we got down to it the next day they wanted $2500
more for it. I told them I was insulted and they will be reported to
the Mass. Attorney Generals office. But lucky for me they were a few
of Subaru dealers in the surrounding towns. The dealer I got it from
had to get the Silver one I wanted from anotehr dealership in New
England (no charge) Had to pay $500 for the "destination charge" and
$95 for the "docking fee". They wouldn't throw in the doggy mesh
screen, but I tried! HAHAHAHAHAHA
My 1st Soobie! And I'm heading to Maine in it next week for a nice
camping trip. I pick it up on Saturday. WOO-HOOO!!
