What is actually on this car
Straight off the Monroney label — the window sticker Subaru attached at the factory. The option prices add up to the manufacturer's total, so nothing here is our interpretation. The $42,243 below is Subaru's number; the $42,328 we compare against adds the $85 California documentation fee, which our price includes too — so the saving is like for like.

What it costs to run
EPA estimates. Your real number moves with your commute and what you pay locally.
Before you ask
Is $38,515 the real price, or does it change when I get there?
It is the price. $38,515 includes the $85 California documentation fee and excludes tax, title and registration, which depend on where you register the car. Ask for your out-the-door number and you get it in writing, itemised, before you drive anywhere.
What actually happens after I hit Start My Deal?
A real person replies within the hour between 9am and 9pm PT — not a call centre, not an auto-responder. You get the out-the-door number on this exact stock number in writing, and if it is not the car for you we say so.
Can I put my current car toward it?
Yes. Tell us what you are driving and you get a trade number in writing alongside this one, kept separate, so you can see both halves of the deal instead of one blended figure.
Do I have to come to Carlsbad?
Yes — the paperwork is signed in person, so plan on one visit. We make it count: your out-the-door number is locked in writing before you leave the house, the car is prepped and waiting, and the test drive doubles as a Carlsbad surf check. One scheduled visit, not a four-hour Saturday.
Is this car brand new?
Yes — brand new, never titled, never registered, with only test-drive miles at most on the odometer. The full factory warranty starts the day you buy it. Want to see it before you come in? Ask and we will text you a video walk-around of this exact car.
What if I want a different Forester?
There are 34 Foresters and 215 new Subarus in stock, every one priced on the site. Say what you actually want and we will send the ones that match instead of talking you into this one.
