Whether you’ve had your eye on the latest version of the Subaru Forester or want to zoom around the city in an Impreza, one thing’s for certain: You’ve been bitten by the Subaru bug. At the time of writing the Impreza starts from a cool $24,990 and the Forester can go for as high as $34,646, so finding the right finance to get these vehicles is important.
This guide will take you through your financing options for the Subaru you want.
Some of the finance options available to you include the following:
How much the loan will cost depends on what car you’ve decided to go with. If you’ve gone with the Subaru Outback, this will set you back around $40,000. This is without factoring in other costs, such as fuel, insurance, registration and servicing.
Once you’ve considered the upfront and running costs of the car, an easy way to work out the loan costs is by using a car loan repayment calculator. Simply input the loan amount, interest rate and fees to see how much you’ll pay each month. Remember that if a balloon repayment applies to your financing arrangement, you will need to save this up over the course of your loan term, so you will need to factor this in.
Some of the features that will help you decide between lenders include the following:
Should I get a new or used Subaru?
This is a personal choice. New cars can come with great perks but are obviously more expensive and lose their value quickly. If you opt for a used car, there is a risk of it being damaged or faulty, but you will likely get more bang for your buck. Do some research into new and used models and find one to suit your needs.
Are balloon repayments offered on every loan?
No, they’re not. Typically, balloon payments only come with dealership finance loans. Check the loan features for more information on what is required when researching your loans.
How do I know what loan type is right for me?
It can be tricky figuring out which loan type is right for you. Luckily, we've got a car loan comparison guide to help you out with that.
