I also agree that around $3000 under MSRP is very good now. I called so many dealerships and negotiated to the point where some dealers would come back and say I don't know how you are getting that deal. It was usually $3400 under MSRP and $1100 above Edmunds invoice. I found dealers were much more flexible with the FWD and some of those I found for $200 over invoice. Finally bought mine and am very happy with it although I have yet to test it in the snow.

We I was looking a couple of months back the Hayward and Dublin dealers were both willing to do $500 over invoice for AWD stock on hand.
 
It took a bit of arm twisting but they both came down. We ended up not buying because I just didn't feel like blowing nearly 40k on a van at the moment.

I got an offer of $25,350 for a LE BW, which is almost $200 above edmunds invoice and below dealer's inovice ($300ish?)
 
Maybe I can get for inovice this weekend. Edmunds really, really helpful!

Additional stuff to pay for after OTD price? by cablekc
Oct 29, 2004 (11:06 am)

This may sound like a stupid question....but should I expect a OTD price to be precisely that? Meaning....if I dont want anything else ( warranties ) that I will write a check for that OTD price and I can leave happy?z
 
Should I expect to be bombarded with additional stuff that I HAVE to pay for that would not be included in the OTD price?
 
I expect that there would they will try to sell me an Extended Warranties ( that I want to get ), but I am wondering if there are other "unknown costs" that the dealership is going to add on top of my OTD price that they say that I HAVE to pay for that is never included in the OTD price ( such as "blah blah dealership" fee that is included in all sales of vehicles ).

LE8 BW, CF, DH for $27K in Oregon by slader

I was finally able to get a Sienna LE8 with BW, CF, and DH for $27,000 out-the-door (including $218 in state DMV fees).
 
For some reason Edmunds doesn't allow you to choose CF or DH as an option when building a 2005 LE 8, but TMV for an LE 8 with BW is $28,382. Kelly Blue Book Invoice for an LE 8 with BW, CF, and DH is $25,753.
 
I know that isn't as good a price as some from other parts of the country have gotten, but it was the best deal I could get after working with 9 dealers, AAA Auto Source, and Costco Auto. Anyone have any other data points for Oregon or Washington?
 
I am buying from John and Phil's Toyota in Corvallis, Oregon. The internet sales rep was very professional and easy to work with.

Well, I don't know that there is any sort of legal definition for what is "Out The Door" price. I've always interpreted it to mean, I show up with a check for x amount of dollars (previously agreed to OTD price), and I leave the dealership driving my new car. If I've got something in writing (e-mail/fax) from a dealer in which we've specifically agreed on a total OTD price, and then the dealership attempts to tack on some misc. document handling fee or whatever, I would walk.
 
And if you intend to get any sort of extended warranty, and intend to pay for it at the same time as the new vehicle purchase, then negotiate that at the same time you are negotiating the OTD price. Why have to go through 2 separate rounds of negotiation: first for the vehicle purchase price/trade-in, and then again on the extended warrantee? You just given the dealership another shot at your pocketbook.

Thanks, sue2pak. I got in touch with them but just getting a price quote was like pulling teeth.
 
Now I remember why I've bought my last four vehicles over the internet rather than by phone or in person!

Drove home a Sienna XLE LTD AWD today! by cmh

After 4 months of painstaking research, finally bought a 2005 Sienna XLE LTD AWD with the HE package. The following summarizes our experience:
 
Started with the usual suspects – Nissan, Honda and Sienna. Quickly eliminated the Quest.
 
After a lot of thought process, settled for the Sienna. Reasons - we were looking at a high-end van – close to the luxury segment. Minor details like HID, Dynamic cruise, no side door channels and power passenger seat were important to us. The Honda ODY Touring appealed to us. But could not get only RES. Did not really care for the NAV - a van is a mom mobile, how many times were we going to really use it in city driving conditions? Chose Sienna AWD instead.
 
We shortlisted the following dealers based on honesty and fairness in dealings:
 
NISSAN
Buckeye Nissan, Columbus, OH
 
HONDA
Matthew’s Honda, Marion, OH
 
TOYOTA
1. Dry Ridge Toyota, Dry Ridge , KY
2. Kerry Toyota, Florence, KY
3. Toyota of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH
4. Kings Toyota, Cincinnati, OH
 
Went with Kings Toyota, Cincinnati, OH
 
Ordered the car - 10/4/05
Build Date - 10/27/04
Delivered to the dealer - 10/30/04
Picked up - 10/31/04
 
Phantom Grey and Stone interior, HE package with the GBS sensor.
 
Paid – $37 K (invoice – $36,340, MSRP – $40,121)
3.09% financing for 60 months
$423.05 for additional console (MSRP $703)
$775 for Platinum, 84/ Months/100K/0 ded TCS Warranty
$40 for Mudguards (self installed, MSRP $75)
$100 Doc fees
$25 title and tags
State Tax
 
In and out in 2 hours. No haggling, no issues with F&I. Drove 2 hours from Cincinnati to Columbus. Love the van, best auto decision we have made.
 
Thanks to this site - helped us tremendously in our buying process!
