FWIW, its not so much a dealer as it is a regional thing. SoCal seems to be notorious for crazy markups on "hot" cars, and the NW is a little too...

At one point, the instock WRXs at my dealer were priced at 4000 above MSRP... doesnt mean they sold at that, but they likely did sell over MSRP. Since I ordered and waited 2 months, mine was 800 over invoice. Not as good as your invoice + dest. but around here 800 over invoice was better than MSRP or higher...

It depends on the region AND the dealer... Some dealers in regions with markups still don't markup, and some dealers in regions without typical marksup DO markup.

Case in point, a local dealer has a Civic LX sedan (read bread and butter) that had a 1000 over MSRP dealer surcharge... who are they kidding? Then, you go to another local dealer with no markup on a Civic...

Now, if you see 1000 above on a Civic, odds are the WRX would have a markup too...

BTW, knowing what you've said, would you be kind enough to list your dealer online? I'm sure others looking for an STi or even the "regular" WRX would like invoice pricing...

Where I live there was NEVER a 2K markup on the WRX when it debuted. MSRP only in the first 3 months, then invoice +dest. there after. And there won't be a markup on the STi! I'm sorry you have such a hard time believing this. I don't know what else to tell you but to FIND A DIFFERENT DEALER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think this board affects the IQ of some of it's members.
