#12 of 8698 come to Buffalo NY by buffaloabby May 13, 2000 (8:34 pm)
For all of you who are being quoted prices for advertising, factory installed equipment,gas,etc., come to the Buffalo NY area. I ordered an XLE last month for $26,200. The breakdown is as follows on the invoice: Base: 23,930 destination 480 HE pkg: 1020 TO 128 EF 33 total: $25,624 the difference between the real invoice and what I'm paying is $576 and that is without all the garbage that they are throwing on to the invoices to make it look like you are paying only a couple of hundred of dollars over invoice, when actually you are paying closer to a thousand! So if your interested, I purchased mine from Downing Halls Toyota in Lockport NY. Stop and see Niagara Falls while you're here it's very close by. Good luck
#13 of 8698 Nuwave - Try New Orleans by mslynn May 14, 2000 (11:40 pm)
Some of you Southeasterners might want to try Bohn Toyota in New Orleans. They will work with you over the internet - but get their phone number and call them. The woman that is listed doesn't return phone calls OR e-mails. I'm assuming she's not there anymore. If you ask for their internet specialist, he will talk to you - I received a GREAT quote - now all I've got to do is sell my car....Please let me know how it goes...it's not TOO far to N.O.; it might be a nice drive back in a Sienna though!
#14 of 8698 Hey zip9 by buycar5 May 15, 2000 (7:34 pm)
How did that deal go? That looked about 3% over invoice, not bad. What was the name of that dealer? I too am in the South East. Got a quote on loaded XLE from a dealer in IN about 7% over invoice. I'm hoping to find better. What is this FIE? Is that only in the LE and CE, or are they sticking it to all models?

#16 of 8698 $150.00 coupon no longer available in WI by tzs May 15, 2000 (10:36 pm)
I inquired of the Clearinghouse for that $150.00 coupon and was informed that in the midwest region, they sold out two months ago. Shoot.
#17 of 8698 bought new Sienna by m3838 May 16, 2000 (2:10 am)
HI. I sent one e-mail to about 25 dealers within 50 miles and got about 10 responces. In the mail I specified: CE base invoice -- $20 602 Extra Value package - $847 Tow package -- $128 bumper protector - $40 Invoice price $21617 plus 2%($432) over - $22055, to which I had to pay 8.5% tax at the end. plus delivery --$462 plus handling fee - around $400 -- $23 000. Looks like the price I got was $438 over the invoice, but then I had to pay delivery and handling fees(including registration, licence etc.) My out of pockett expences were roughly $25000. Plus I got exended warranty for 5 years(100K mls) that was applied towards financing and lowered my interest from 8.9% to 8.5%, and increased my monthly payments from $300 to $330. The best offer was from Berkeley Toyota, I was given flat price, came over there and filled out the papers. End of deal. But the best part was the next day. If you are intrested, please read my follow up. Thanks.
#18 of 8698 Dealers in Houston by dana20 May 16, 2000 (2:13 am)
Can anyone recommend a dealer in Houston? I'd like to find one that will give a fair deal. Thanks!
#19 of 8698 Dealer in Berkeley by m3838 May 16, 2000 (2:36 am)
Hi. Well, when we were ready for test drive, fleet manager asked us to file the papers first and then to look at the car and drive it. If we will not like it - we will toss the papers. He didn't play any tricks - it was Mother's day and I arrived late at the lot. We (silly) agreed and when we were shown the car - we were a bit disappointed. There were some minor problems with it. The guy wanted to go home and started to pressing us a little. He didn't mention that garage was just across the street, so we could roam the lot and pick the car ourselves. He was just calling there and the car was delivered. Well, we bought it. My whife didn't like it, my home folks didn't like it etc., so when I came back to the dealer (to bring the keys from my trade-in and pink slip), I asked this silly question: "if it is possible to switch cars, because i accidentally dropped by the garage and saw white CE that I liked. Off course the manager said "no", I was not leaving, he explained it to me a couple of times, I explained to him why I didn't pick the other one the day before and finally he allowed to do that! Amazing! So now I have white CE that suits us perfectly! Soo, my great thanks and highest rankings to Berkeley Toyota's manager Tim, who showed real respect for the customer in very tough situation. His advice at the end was: NEVER sign anything sight unseen, even on Mother's day, and even at his own dealership. Berkeley Toyota, at 2400 Shattuck Ave, Berkeley, CA.

You paid for the handling and delivery fees for $400 and $462 (total of $862)? I believe the destination charge of $480 includes the 'handling' and 'delivery'. If this is the case, you paid more than 2% over invoice ($432). You really paid $814 over invoice. If there was a 'dealers-trade' involve, then I see that they could possibly charge you for such fees, but not as high as $862.
#21 of 8698 Added Invoice Items - Dallas by bowden1911 May 16, 2000 (6:14 pm)
I am working with an internet sales manager in Dallas, TX who said I can get an LE at $100 over invoice. However, he is including the following additional invoice charges which I am not familar with. T.D.A. $ 247.00 M.A.F. $ 323.00 BASE VEHICLE HOLDBACK $ 430.00 PIO HOLDBACK $ 96.00 WHSL. FINANCIAL RES R $ 215.00 The dealer assures me that any dealer has to pay these costs. Should I expect the invoice price to include these covering these charges?
