#3310 of 4170 Used 2008 Sport Highlander pricing advice by ratbert613 Jun 28, 2008 (8:34 pm)
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!
#3311 of 4170 New/Used 2008 Highlander Base 2WD by santoboni Jun 29, 2008 (1:19 am)
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. Replies to this message: 2002champs (Jun 30, 2008 1:37 pm) ocautoseeker (Jul 01, 2008 10:00 pm)

Replying to: santoboni (Jun 29, 2008 1:19 am) 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.

Replying to: santoboni (Jun 29, 2008 1:19 am) $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.
#3314 of 4170 Hybrid Limited Pricing by notsofast3 Jul 05, 2008 (6:41 am)
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 Replies to this message: mdhutton (Jul 05, 2008 8:21 pm)

Replying to: notsofast3 (Jul 05, 2008 6:41 am) Be glad you're in Philly. Anything Hybrid is going for VERY close to, if not over MSRP right now.
#3317 of 4170 Toyota Highlander Hybrid: Prices Paid & Buying Experience by ed111 Jul 08, 2008 (12:13 pm)
Can anyone provide any information on recent prices and buying experience for the 2008 Highlander Hybrid?   And the 2009 Highlander Hybrid when it is available?
#3318 of 4170 Pricing by mlira Jul 12, 2008 (8:16 pm)
Replying to: mtairyordge (Jun 20, 2008 7:30 am) I got a quote for a 2008 2WD Sport with Nav and DVD for 32,700. this does not include tax, License or the current rebate of either $750 or $1000. So I think I'm looking at about... 35K OTD. What do you guys think??
#3319 of 4170 Re: 4x4 limited need opinion [jilin74] by mtairyordge Jul 14, 2008 (7:33 am)
Replying to: jilin74 (Jun 20, 2008 8:35 am) There was no rebate available at the time. I purchase it over Memorial Day. I had my wife at home on the internet while I was negotiating and we were able to trim $1500 off what the dealer was quoting by steering them to other dealers quotes. eventually used CARMAX as the basis.
