Replying to: sethi (Mar 05, 2005 8:22 pm) "Our pricing when accepting an order is $ 200 or $ 569 Over invoice for our internet or value price. Choice is yours. The value price includes our Lifetime loaner car program and lifetime buyer protection plan. Only additional charges are $99 processing fee and Tax Tag and Title as applicable." I don't understand why package 6 is not readily available? I really want the power seats and so that's my desire for package 6. While I like the Salsa Red Pearl - I not all that committed to that color, just the package. Thanks again.

Replying to: mjill1 (Mar 07, 2005 9:51 am) I tried to buy my 2004 Sienna LE from the same Waldorf dealer but soon realized that they were way too dishonest for my money (and I dealt with a supposed sales manager). I ended up buying in Springfield VA but could have easily bought from Fitzmall (Montgomery County) as well. They don't play the games that most dealers do. As for the Walfdorf dealer's service department, they are pretty good. My Sienna has had a few recalls done there and they were efficient, thorough, and professional (as service dept's go). Good luck with your lease but be careful if you stay at the Waldorf dealer. Rico |

Replying to: mjill1 (Mar 07, 2005 9:51 am) Toyota's decisions about what packages to make available in what regions are one of the great mysteries of the universe. Stephen Hawking should investigate. If you build your Toyota online at the website and enter a zipcode from one of the Toyota Central Atlantic region states (including Maryland), you'll see they only show two option packages for an LE FWD in the region--neither of which is #6. I'm also interested in the power seats and a #6, but apparently you either have to special order (and wait) or upgrade to an XLE. Neither is particularly customer friendly. |

Maybe the answer is to start telling the salespeople, "I'm sorry you won't sell what different area Toyota dealers sell. I came here wanting to buy your car and you (not personally but Toyota Management) have talked me out of it. Here is my business card. I am going to the Honda, Mazda (whatever to go buy WHAT I WANT.) When your management wakes up and decides to do business let me know. I want one but you won't let me buy it. Good -bye. (Walk out the door and don't look back.) One or two won't make a difference but if it happens enough, things will change. This is the year 2005 and people are educated. We shouldn't have to put up with this. |

Had to post to thank the forum for help in getting a fair deal on a 2005 Sienna. Good experience with Team Toyota, Langhorne, PA Internet Department. Thought I was going to buy from Fitzmall (Gaithersburg,MD) since I was going to be in the area anyway. Initial email offer from Team was 300 over invoice. After test drive, told them I was buying within the week (but not today) and flashed Fitzmall printout and let them know this was their competition. By the time I got home I had an email from Team with an offer for 200 under invoice (matching Fitz). Negotiated for a few other options over the phone. Final deal: XLE Pkg 6, Carpet Floor Mats w/Door Sill Protector, Cargo Net, Wireless headphones and Auto-dimming mirror. MRSP: 35,361 Invoice: 31,558 Selling Price: 31,239 (319 under invoice excl Tax, tags and doc) |

I have a few questions. Anyone have any luck with an CT Toyota Dealers? We will be in the market for an LE 8 pass. not sure of options. When I went to Lorenson in Old Saybrook for literature I was not impressed with the snide sales person so I don't think they will get my business, unless someone can tell me SUPER things about them. The rest is more of an insurance/accident question, which I posted on that forum, but this board is much more active... I was rear ended yesterday by a tractor trailer-100% his fault. Problem is we have been planning on getting a van this spring and wanted to sell our car privately vs. trading in to try to get a little more $. Now that it's been in an accident we don't feel comfortable selling it to someone. Plus we won't get as mch as we had hoped. Now, our question is: would one recommend taking a check from the insurance company to put toward down payment and trade in the car "as is". My thought is if the estimate for damage is greater than 4k, and we can get 4-5k for a trade in (based on edmunds figures) tha we aren't behind as we had hoped to get 9k for the sale this spring. Or should we jst get it fixed and trade it in this spring as we had planned? Has anyone been in such a situation? For what it is worth the car is an '01 Accord value package with 80k miles, which is high we know. The damage has not been assessed proffessional, but it goes from the top of trunk to the bumper and the entire width of the car, including lights. Thanks for any input. |

Replying to: sjm2 (Mar 10, 2005 9:19 am) You really need to get some firmer numbers before you can make an informed decision here. Broadly speaking, my inclination would be to try to sell the vehicle in its damaged condition (there are many folks who buy 'em and fix 'em up) as your overall net may be greater that way. Also, it seems that you are describing quite a bit of damage, likely more than $4000 worth. |

| Interesting how Toyota has cash back (from $500-1500) on pretty much all of their new 05 vehicles but the Sienna. Wondering if this will continue through spring and summer as we move closer to 06 introduction. | |
