Hi,
I'm new to this forum and would like to get some info on the price before heading to the dealers. We're interested in a Sienna XLE Fwd w/ the package # 7 (the color is red but that's not our top priority right now). I'd like to know if someone in Rockville, or Potomac, MD area has recently bought a similar Sienna. If so, please let me know how much you paid and where. Edmunds TMV price indicates $33,993 but maybe someone did get a better price.

The best reported Sienna prices in the country are in your area - try Dacars and Fitzgerald.

Sienna XLE Limited with AWD, DVD and NAV by jimg6

I just agreed on a price of $38,300. (Good Deal?) The dealer calls back today and says there is a $400 upcharge for Arctic Frost Pearl, an extra set of wireless headphones and a first aid kit. Does this sound right? Edmonds pricing doesn't calculate Arctic Frost Pearl as a higher cost finish. Althought Toyota's website says it's a higher cost finish but I can't find the $$ amount.

Arctic Frost is, as I recall, $210 more on the MSRP. $190 for the other items sounds a tad high.

LE, BZ, CF by ssloth

Just bought a 2005 Sienna LE 7 pass BZ (package 6) and CF (floor mats). Initially, O stopped at Penn Toyota for a test drive. Salesman gave a price of 26,500 and hinted that he would go lower if we were ready to deal. I then started on the internet. Fitzmall told me there was no package 6 available. I got a price of $25,687 from Boch. When I called they added a $198 fee. I relayed this to Fitz and suddenly they had a package 6 available. They offered it for $25,687 without the $198 fee.
I went to my local dealer (Star in Bayside, NY). They refused to match. The manager told me I would be hit with Delivery and dealer prep. His price was $27,200.
I went back to Penn. I told the salesman my price. He spoke to the manager, came back and started giving me the same routine about delivery and dealer prep. I insisted that the price was for everything but taxes, tags and title. It was kind of funny because he assumed the price was from Star, and started telling me how they were notorious for this type of thing. Finally I got a price out of him: $26,700. When I pointed out that this was higher then the first price he told me that was last month and “everything’s different now.” I thanked him and my wife and I started to get out of our seats. The salesman suddenly decided to talk to the manager again. He came back said he would match the $25,687 price. Now we asked about our trade.
The Edmunds trade value was $5,125. We decided that we would take $7500 for sure. They offered 5k. We said we weren’t sure if we wanted to buy or trade (we weren’t) and would sleep on it. At this point the manager came over. He offered to make the price an even 20k. My wife got him to throw in an alarm and Lojack and we signed. The only catch was we had to come back so they could inspect our trade on the lift.
When I brought my car back to be inspected the salesman and manager that made the sale were nowhere to be found. They took my trade away and brought around my new car for me to see. So I’m sitting in my new car thinking “I’m being set up.” Sure enough the manager takes me into an office and explains that the car has a bent frame and was overvalued. I took out the contract and my credit card. I told him write cancelled on the contract and refund my deposit. “You want to drive a car with a bent frame” he asked incredulously. I assured him I did. He told me he “only” wanted to lop $1000 off the trade value. I declined. He took my credit card and, after the inevitable 10 minute wait, returned. Without a receipt. “How about $250,” he asked. His voice betrayed that he was begging. “Nothing “I offered. “Can you pick this up tomorrow?”
And that was basically that. When I left after having the trade inspected I felt victorious. I mean I had the guy begging. But now its left a bad taste in my mouth. Overall though, I think I got a good deal.

8 passenger CE or LE pricing by tamu2002

Hi all, we're interested in either a CE or LE 8 passenger van. Could somebody from the greater Seattle area give some suggestions on pricing and good dealership/salesperson? We live in Sammamish but are willing to drive 40+ miles for a good deal. I test drove at Michael's Toyota in Bellevue, and the sales person I dealt with walked off on me because I was a little hesitant to leave my name and contact info. Judging from his attitude, i don't feel very hopeful of getting a good deal on one of these vans. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
 
Can anyone provide a lead on a Southern California dealership who will provide decent pricing? Best I've been able to come up with is probably about $700 over invoice (although that same dealership is now saying $900 over). Thanks.

Yes, I believe you locked a great deal for an LE w/ #7.
I am ready to purchase. Can you tell me where you bought your Sienna?
