Not to say that a dealer may be misleading customers, but this one is probably lying about the price. Scion is committed to the pure pricing scheme, and I'm sure there are some higher-ups at Scion/Toyota who wouldn't take kindly at all to a dealer advertising a price below MSRP.

There is no pure pricing on Subarus, so those dealers can discount if they want to. I would expect this car to be in demand for a while, so I don't expect they'll really need to move much on their pricing to sell the few cars they get.

I had considered waiting and hoping for discounts, but decided that even at MSRP, this is a great bargain and was within my price range. I'm just glad my dealer wasn't trying to go above MSRP. I would not have paid more.
