Anyone purchase the new 860? How much?
 
I am interested in the new supernova 860, but MSRP is a bit much for what they are asking. If I could get close to invoice I might get it, but if the dealers pull the old "Well, this is a rare special edition so we can't negotiate a lower price" game then it's a harder sell. People here seem a bit sour on it for the price, but has anyone gotten it? What can I expect to pay? The BRZ side of the board has a new similar thread going on like this. It looks like people have been getting killer deals there.

Thanks,
Myriad

There is one dealership selling one just under 30K near me

Make sure you get one with Limited Edition(tm) overspray in the engine compartment.

There are several on here.
The dealers will get what the market will bear and not one cent more. If they sell well and you wait you may be out of luck. Or they may not sell at all and 6 months you may get one for a deal. Don't expect the dealer to take less for it just because you want it that way.

They all have the custom overspray engine compartment. It is a feature not an error.

Why not buy it, bring it home and then check the engine bay as that helps with the bonding process as you discover that your engine is cherry Blossom pink with a hint of white which is really special colour.

I have to assume the white ones don't, since that's the base color. Or can you only get them in orange? I'd have been pissed if that was my car.

To be fair though, I didn't check the engine compartment on mine before I bought it either.

Maybe the white ones are orange? Not sure anybody here has said they bought a white one yet. White would really just be a Monogram with stick on stripes.


I checked mine. It is a horrible shade of redish brown since there is no pearl coat. Hides the dirt well though.

I'm sure you meant to say "and not one cent less". They'll take all the money I give them, right? :)

Regardless, that is sound advice. Do I pull the trigger now, or wait and have more bargaining power and possibly miss out? Decisions decisions. Maybe I do nothing and keep running my old Integra as long as she goes. I suppose it really all comes down to is what will the wife let me do? :iono:

30k for a set of racing stripes and a disaster of an engine bay hehexd

What is going on with the riced up tS and this messed up 860. Toyota and Subaru seem to have lost their respect to their design. Are they ending production soon?

By 2019 I'm like 99% positive the platform will be out of production.:iono:

Actually I meant to say more or less.
It is a crap game when talking special editions. You could of course keep a very close eye on what is for sale nationally and if the supply starts to dwindle then jump in. Not going to get a deal at that point though.
Ya, her buy in could be a factor!

The whole beauty of this car is originating from a concept and design by engineers but not marketers.
