I am not sure what the FEW OTHER THINGS are. I purchased a 4x4 lmtd with those options you listed and Rear Seat Entertainment factory installed not the dealer option. I also got Towing and something else that escapes me.
 
I paid $36000. Look at Carmax and see if they have one equiped the same way and show that to them.
 
Are you trading a vehicle in? If not I would squeeze them for a few hundred more. I bet they have more room.

wow, so you got the Navigation + rear seat dvd 4x4 limited for 36k? That is really a great deal. Does that already include the 1000 dollar cash rebate?

Used 2008 Sport Highlander pricing advice by ratbert613

Hi all,
 
Am looking at a used 2008 Sport Highlander 4x4 with no frills with 15,000 miles. Asking price is $22000. Unfortunately, Edmunds doesn't seem to have a TMV for this model yet. What do you all think would be a reasonable offer?
 
Thank you!

New/Used 2008 Highlander Base 2WD by santoboni

I have a 2008 Highlander base 2WD with Toyota's Option F (MSRP $29,355). Only have 4,600 miles on the vehicle and except for a few bumper dings (we live in a city) there are no issues at all with the car (still smells new). But because we live in the city I get crap MPG (13-16 MPG) and am considering getting something with better MPG. Because there are no published used prices for 08s yet, pricing has been a bit of a crap shoot. I have someone who is interested in buying, but only wants to pay $22,000, which seems low to me. She said that a dealer in the DC area quoted her $23,800 for the same vehicle, new, and with power seats (which mine does not have). Based on my shopping for the same vehicle a few months ago that price seems impossible (no other dealer would even come close to the price I paid for the car, which was more than $23,800). Am looking for feedback on both a used price and whether a dealer quote of $23,800 is realistic.

Have you tried checking websites like AutoTrader.com where you can at least see what recent used price listings are? I have a friend who was out shopping this weekend in Southern California who had 2 different dealers tell him that they would only offer 50% of MSRP for a 2008 SUV he wanted to trade in. They said there is so little interest in them now no dealer wants to get stuck holding them on their lots for months. So they are aggressive on selling price and will pay little on trade-in. That might explain the scenario your buyer presented with such a low sales price on the new Highlander near the end of the model year. If the same holds true in your area, you might be fortunate to get $22K for yours. Good luck.

$22k is a realistic resale price on a used '08. That is ~25% in first year depreciation and very typical on most vehicles. I'm sure you've heard the addage before that new vehicles typically lose 20-30% of their value as soon as you drive 'em off the lot - case holds true for you here. The used car market is extremely soft right now, so to even have a buyer is a blessing.

Hybrid Limited Pricing by notsofast3

I live in Philly and need feeback as to what is a good price for a Hybrid Limited with
--JBL Premium Audio/Bluetooth
--Dual AC
--Manual Rear AC
--Moonroof
--Anti-Theft
 
Edmunds shows the invoice to be $38,900 and their estimated price is $43,500 which is only $300 under MSRP. That sounds ridiculous to me. Also if anyone can guess what type of depreciation hit a used 2008 Hybrid should take, I'd be all ears.
 
THANKS

Be glad you're in Philly. Anything Hybrid is going for VERY close to, if not over MSRP right now.
