What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Subaru Tribeca
| Price of the Subaru Tribeca: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 256-horsepower 3.6L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
In Mexico we need to pay import taxes, that are expensive, also the interest rate is high. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 256-horsepower 3.6L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
relative expensive |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 245-horsepower 3.0L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
$8,000 more than CX7 with same features. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Toyota Highlander
| Price of the Toyota Highlander: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 187-horsepower 2.7L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
We were able to get a new Highlander for much less money than a Honda Pilot and still get all the features we desired (larger than a Rav4/CRV, >20 MPG city, leather, and full compliment of air bags/antilock/traction control) |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 155-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I got it for a good price making it an easy decsision to purchase |
| Price of the Toyota Highlander: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Felt some options missing for $38K vehicle such as memory settings, more detailed tire monitoring |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
VW was offering a sizeable discount on the Routan, a similar Highlander was from 8 to 10K more |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
you pay for the reputation. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
More expensive then Pathfinder for same year and higher milage vehicles. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Because you had to purchase features you did not want, the vehicle was much more pricey than others with the same features. They charged a premium for basic features included with other makes of cars. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Over priced because was new model at time I was looking. Configured with unwanted trim and features vs competition. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 208-horsepower 3.3L V6 Hybrid CVT AWD |
I paid full MSRP. |
