When deciding which optional extras to tick, bear in mind that the best deal new Subaru isn't necessarily the model with lots of extras (despite what many new Subaru dealers try to tell you). The fact is that most new Subarus lose money faster on the optional extras than on the Subaru itself - so the extras you choose (even at the new Subaru best price) doesn't necessarily offer the best value. When it comes to ex-demo Subarus or ready-built showroom new Subarus for sale at a main dealer, the specification has already been fixed and cannot be changed; so if you need a new Subaru from stock, be spec-flexible. New Subaru dealers tend to pre order stock they can sell easily - typically Silver, Grey or Black Subarus with few or no options at all. The best discount new Subarus are normally specified like that - ie popular colours with few options. Car finance is another consideration when choosing to pay extra for optional equipment. If you buy a new Subaru on the best PCP deal or Subaru leasing / contract hire package you can find, the options may ruin your saving; this is because handing the Subaru back at the end loses the FULL value of the extra equipment you paid for. To avoid this potential loss, you have three possibilities: 1) select a higher Subaru trim level ie Sport over an S; 2) don't order expensive options; 3) buy your new Subaru on HP or with a personal loan (where you always own the Subaru and the optional extras).
