Got a LE 8 seater with option #6 by peterisme

Bought a LE 8 seater with option #6 last night. I went through to negotiation through emails and I believe I found a good deal. I emailed about 20 dealers in Chicago area. Schaumburg Toyota offered $300 above invoice and Continental Toyota offered $200 over invoice. It seems their invoice price is $450 than the invoice price at Edmunds.com. Finally I got the car at $26,163 (MSRP $28,946) with Continental Toyota. The sale man is very nice. (I doubt he is real auto dealer J)
 
It is an interesting that I first asked for a LE with 7 seats and the dealer yesterday emailed me said they got it for me. When I went there, the car just arrived with just 4 miles and I found it is an 8 seats model. The dealer said: “Oops, I didn’t notice it either”. Since the 8 seater is just $130 higher than the 7 seat one, I just went ahead to sign the contact.
 
Thanks guys in this forum, I gathered most of my information get this deal.

Ready to buy 05 Sienna XLE Ltd FWD with color Arctic Frost Pearl. Do not want DVD and/or NAV system. In Dallas/Fort Worth metro area, I got offer price $34,380(not OTD price) with MSRP $37,333. This price comes with base XLE Ltd, muds guards, carpet met and several other accesories.
 
Questions: Can I get a better deal than $34,380? Does anyone has good experience/price with delears in Dallas/Fort Worth metro area?
 
Thanks for any inputs!

arg013,
 
in my area, the invoice price for the LTD w/o any options is approx. 32000, plus a $300 "adv fee." Let's call it 32300 then. Add about $200 for the artic pearl, another $300 for random accessories and we're at 32,800. This suggests that you're still paying approx $1580 over invoice. You should be able to negotiate down to $1000 above invoice at the very least, $500 with some more sweat.
 
I don't have a clue as to the demand in your area, but I would try several dealers at any rate.
 
Good luck.

I have a view somewhat different than that of lghong67.
 
At least in Ohio (where TDA on this unit is substantially more than the figure lghong67 mentioned), a $3000 discount off of an MSRP of $37,333 is about as good a deal as is possible right now.
 
 
In fact, to give you an idea of market conditions here: I found an '04 Sienna XLE Limited AWD with the HE package and 4000 miles on it (supposedly driven by the dealer's wife). MSRP is $39,606 and invoice (exclusive of TDA) is $35,108. Their best price is $35,808, well short of my $35,000 offer.
 
I think you need to pinpoint the invoice to the penny and find out how much TDA is in your area.
Others claiming good deals have mentioned buying anywhere from a couple of hundred under that combined figure to $500-$600 over.
 
Good luck!

XLE AWD with Package 12 (HWE) by kevinp

3 Points:
 
1. What is difference between this fully equipped XLE and Limited. Package 12 includes everything the highest option Limited can have...so base difference is just differenc between Limited and XLE. I went through compare on Carsdirect.com and think it boils down to 2 things:
a. Limited is nicer leather and includes some faux wood trim
b. Limited has the parking sensors system front/back that XLE doesn't (package 12 which includes navigation also has the backup camera)
 
Comments?
 
2. Dealer Price (verbal so far, from Westboro, MA Toyota) is $37,100 which includes delivery (but of course not tax, license, or document fee which is high at $245, but includes full tank gas (retail value here about $38 bucks and MA inspection sticker which costs $29). That's $200 more than Fitzmall (that's how I got the price, making them compete with Fitz..but that was as far as they would go, and Fitz is only $99 for doc. fee, but I bet it's just a doc. fee, no gas)
 
Comments: On how this sounds?
 
3. Totally different question: How usuable (if at all) is the navigation system to a passenger in the front while I'm driving?
 
Comments?
 
Thxs.

Dealers will move down to $1000 for a 7/100 warranty. (at least, the one I am talking to right now will!)
 
I am thinking about a Sienne LE with package 4. Dealer has offered me 300 below invoice. What do ppl think? Should I bite?

The leather is the same in the XLE and Limited so far as I know.
 
There are other differences between the models, the most significant of which is that the Limited has HID headlights.
 
I believe Toyota's Nav system can only be used when the vehicle is stopped.

Thanks for the reply...is there somewhere on the internet that I can find differences between the Limited and XLE? It also occurred to me that Laser Cruise may be only available on Limited but I'm not sure.
