Replying to: phairphair (Jan 02, 2009 6:37 pm) AW 17" Aluminum Wheels LF Fog lamps w/Day Time Running Lights and Windshield Wiper De-icer CF Floor Mats/Door Sill Protector TO Tow Prep Package Best offer so far is $31,000 + TTL I guess I felt pretty good about the offer until I reviewed the dealer invoice and noticed all these additional fees. When added up they total just under $2,000. It seems to me that that is an awful big profit. I feel like there should be more give on the dealer's part. Destination Charge $745 Gasoline $16 Dealer Holdback $595 Dealer Advertising $ 345 Financial Reserve $297

Replying to: Brewtus (Jan 03, 2009 10:58 am) The advertising fee apparently is charged by Toyota corporate (during Toyotathons) and not kept by the dealer. I believe their profit margin is represented by the holdback and financial reserve only. Of course, this is gross profit and does not take into account the overhead of operating the dealership and keeping dozens or hundreds of cars in stock. If you can get a quote of a few hundred below invoice, I think you are doing extremely well. Any lower and they wouldn't be making anything. I paid 30,800 for the exact car you're referring to, but w/o the LF package, so it looks like a good deal. I am usually able to get another hundred or two off just by telling the sales manager directly that I will by the car right now for my final price. Their biggest fear is that you'll take their best cost and walk to use it as leverage against another dealer. |

Hello Everyone: Struggling with the offers I've been receiving to date. It seems that either I'n getting a fair, not great, deal or I'm getting a very bad one depending on what the actual dealer invoice is for the Sienna I'm looking at. Any input would be very appreciated. This what I'm considering: 2009 Toyota Sienna 2WD Trim XLE Manufacturer Code 5346 Base Invoice $25,563 Options AW 17" Aluminum Wheels $104 LF Fog lamps w/Day Time Running Lights and Windshield Wiper De-icer $144 CF Floor Mats/Door Sill Protector $163 TO Tow Prep Package $176 Equipment Packages QN XLE Extra Value Package #4 $3,312 Total Options and Packages $3,899 Total Invoice Including Options and Packages $29,462 Fees: Destination Charge $745 Gasoline $16 Dealer Holdback $595 Dealer Advertising $345 Financial Reserve $297 Total Fees $1,998 Total Invoice Including Fees $31,460 Dealer's Best Offer so far: $31,000 + TTL Depending on what you read all the fees seem to be everything from BS to negotiable to legit. Again, thanks for any insight you could provide. Southern Califorina

Bought a 09' XLE EVP #1 at fremont,CA on 30th dec. Got All weathers mats., fog lights, carpets I paid in cash and got 1500 cash back Is it worthwhile to keep the 885 Money back warranty? Also, found a deal at frys for 599 + 150 install for a clariion in-dash receiver with navigation gps and hook up for camera (200 with install). Is this something that I should consider or are there any toyoya warranty issues with this? -jumroo |

Hi, Everyone, when you buy 09 Sienna, do you consider the shippind data, which indictes when the dealer received this car from Toyota. there are two options for the exact same car , the first one is: ~ 20 mi mileage, but dealer received it on 07/2008, second is: ~ 90 mi mileage, dealer received on 10/2008. which one should I choose? if the shipping data should not be considered when buying a new car? thanks a lot! |

Replying to: turo0002 (Dec 30, 2008 6:32 pm) I have the option to take additional incentives from Toyota if they become available in January 2009 (without giving up the 0% or $1500 rebate from "Toyotathon"). 2009 XLE AWD Limited EVP #2 Dynamic Laser Cruise Control High Intensity Discharge (HID) Headlamps Daytime Running Lights Towing Prep Option: 3,500-lb Towing Carpet Floor Mats/Door Sill Protector I had a lower quote of $36,000 from Wilde Toyota in Wisconsin, which I rejected in favor of working with a local salesperson. In hindsight, I might have focused harder on an XLE AWD EVP#4. . . . Thanks for all your help and posts/feedback. Good luck out there! |
