Thanks to everyone one these boards for your advice and discussion - it really helped me make the decision. I just picked up my milennium silver 4x4 V6 Highlander tonight! It has ash cloth and the following options: FE,RL,EH,SR,GY,TO,AG,CQ,HE,LF,CF. The MSRP is $31,822 incl dest. The people at Jones Toyota in Bel Air, MD were fantastic - I highly recommend anyone in the Balt-DC area to give them a call. Here's how the deal went down: my offer of $27,900 was accepted (which was below invoice with the options it has), but they wanted to give me $7,200 for the Civic (which I knew was a decent price considering what they are currently fetching at the Mannheim auctions and blue book trade was $6,250). I agreed to the deal if he reduced both the price of the trade and the HL by $5,000 to save me the additional $260 in MD state tax. They obliged! I did purchase the extended warranty for $1,175 which covers 5yr/75k bumper to bumper. It's a platinum plan, FULLY refundable at any time, including at the end of term if you never used it ($50 fee). I doubt I'll find a better deal on the warranty, but it gives me a 60 days opt out with no fee. I gave them some more cash and financed the rest at 1.9% to get my payment to $282/mo. I'll report back sometimes on how the car is working out. Right now, happy as a clam!

| I am thinking of getting 2005 HL. Is it worth the wait and extra cost? | |
| I couldn't find any definitive answers on when the 05's were coming out, but the hybrid isn't showing up until Jan-Feb at the earliest. There are no changes for the 05 since they just added the 3rd row seat this year and the 3.3L engine. I pulled the trigger on my 04 b/c of the 1.9% financing that ends June 30th. Short term rates are about to start going up and I don't imagine seeing any great deals on cars like the HL anymore. Good luck. | |
What will be the best way to order 2005 Highlander?

| Just came home with my second Highlander. Traded an 01 for a lovely new Oasis Green Ltd. $400 over invoice and the experience was pleasant in all ways. Can't recommend K.C. Summers in Mattoon Illinois highly enough. | |

I'm being offered "invoice" on a 2004 Bluestone Metaliic 4cl AWD car. The price offered is $24,783. I then get to take $750 Rebate from that. The Highlander has the Quick Order Package, Daytime Running Lights and a Towing Prep Package. Is $24,008 a good price?

| Thinking to buy a HL in a week, anything new with dealer incentives and manufacturer rebates? | |
|
A few questions. 1. Is the Limited worth the money or should I go for the standard and build options like 3row seat, leather, moonroof, until I get all the things I want? 2. For a AWD V6 w/ leather, moon, airbags and a few others, I was quoted MSRP 35,916 and Invoice 32,064 and PP of 32,439? Does that sound reasonable? 3. The paper work includes 2 charges, TDA=$405 and Whsl. Financial Reserve = $313. What are these, are they nego? Thanks
