#3 of 9653 Ed, are we looking for the same car? by tzs May 11, 2000 (5:42 pm)
We are also looking for a Sailfin Blue, several available on the Milwaukee area, don't know where you are. We have heard that the towing package is an OPTION, my husband wants it because we travel a lot and he feels it's better for the tranny. Sometimes it's difficult to keep all the options straight, but if you look at my previous posting you'll see our description. Here in WI they are offering us this for 23,349 or 23,218, almost sounds to good to be true, but we've gotten this type of offer from 4 dealers, maybe they're slower around here or incentives we don't know about
#4 of 9653 Just bought an LE on Tuesday! (m) by edeldice May 11, 2000 (7:30 pm)
We got a Silver Spruce Metallic LE with UN (TO pkg was on the car but was told that the ones they have on site all do; they'd have to order one without....whatever!) We paid $24,031. Here's the breakdown: Sienna LE $22,148 TO Pkg 128 UN Pkg 271 FIE 399 Fuel 6 TDA 398 Destination 480 ____________________ TOTAL "Invoice": 23,830 We paid $24,031. Difference: $201 Of course I think the TDA (advertising) and the FIE (factory installed equipment) are a load of crap and are most likely just profit for them. Still, I feel it was the best deal I could get in my area (NYC metro area). I checked at more than one dealer to see if they could do better and they were all like "buy it from the other guy; I can't come close to that number let alone beat it." Should I have argued on the FIE and TDA charges? Tina
#5 of 9653 SOUTHEAST PROBLEMS by nuwave1 May 12, 2000 (3:08 am)
I HAVE SPOKEN WITH SEVERAL DEALERS IN CHARLOTTE,NC. AND SEVERAL IN SOUTH CAROLINA..NONE HAVE BEEN THAT GREAT...FIVE STATES ARE HANDLED BBY ONE DISTRIBUTOR AND HE DICTATES.... ALL CARS START OFF WITH A $300..ADM FEE + $15 ADD DEST FEE(OVER $480) + MOST HAVE TOYO GUARD (INVOICE 399-454, LIST 599-699)...SO ALL THE PRICES ARE HIGH AND HIGHER.....I AM LOOKING OUTSIDE THIS REGION....I JUST GOT A QUOTE VIA THE INTERNET FROM A DEALER IN JOHNSON CITY, TN FOR 5% OVER INVOICE.??????(AT LEAST IT DID NOT HAVE AFORE MENTIONED COSTS......I THINK WE SHOULD START A BOYCOTT OF THE SOUTHEAST REGION..... I'M DRIVING MY WIFE CRAZY BECAUSE I KEEP HEARING ABOUT ALL THE GOOD DEALS....I JUST CAN'T SEEM TO FIND ONEEEEEEEEE.....
#6 of 9653 nuwave1...exactly WHAT is Toyo Guard? (m) by edeldice May 12, 2000 (3:46 pm)
Um, I never heard of that. Or an administrative fee. Nothing like that came up in my purchase in the New York City area this past Tuesday. Of course they did charge me for advertising (398) and for "factory installed equipment" (399) and for fuel (6). I think these dealers just come up with something to call their PROFIT when they know they're dealing with customers who have all the invoice prices and are doing their homework. Good luck in your car search! Tina
#7 of 9653 we've sent our e--mails, waiting for results by tzs May 12, 2000 (7:36 pm)
We are still waiting in Milwaukee area to see what the dealers will offer. We sent e-mails as have been suggested in previous postings,listing our requested price. Around here, they are offering 100-300 over invoice, maybe you southeasterners should try our northern climes. And yes what the heck IS Toyo Guard. Maybe they'll try and pull that on us once we get in, but they can tell that we've shopped around and used forums and info like this, and seem to realize that we'll walk.
#8 of 9653 LE in tri-state area by zip9 May 12, 2000 (9:34 pm)
After using half a dozen Internet sites (autobytel, carpoint, carsdirect, cars.com ...) to send out request quotes, I finally got a deal I think it's "fair" from Toyota of Morristown, NJ. Here is the breakdown: LE invoice: 22148 UN: 271 TO: 128 EF: 36 N1: 190 SK: 80 Destination: 480 Total: 23333 Quote: 24000 Will go and pick it up tomorrow (5/13). I hope the deal will go through.

#9 of 9653 Good price/dealer in NH? by jeff1962 May 13, 2000 (1:45 pm)
Can anyone recommend a good Toyota dealer (and salesperson) in New Hampshire? We are looking for a new Sienna and would appreciate any recommendations. Also, what kind of prices are you paying for an LE? Thanks!
#10 of 9653 edeldice by quadfour May 13, 2000 (6:52 pm)
what dealership and sales person did you deal with? thanks
#11 of 9653 quadfour... by edeldice May 13, 2000 (7:39 pm)
I dealt with Victor Varga at Toyota City in Mammaroneck. I have liked dealing with him, but frankly I'm irked about the "Factory Installed Equipmment" charge of $399. I should have argued it to get a lower price...although on the other hand I'm not sure how much lower I could have gotten anywhere else. I dealt with 3 different dealerships in Rockland and Westchester. Why? are you in this area? Where are you shopping? And what kind of quotes are you getting?
#12 of 9653 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
