Sorry, I have corrected my typo. A dealer quotes me as $30.5k, which is only about $1200 below their invoice price. It seems we can get it as low as 29.5k with 0% financing, but I have not got that luck yet.

Ok, I understand now.
 
I could not get a price lower than $31k in my area on a new one and that was even with a 3rd row seat delete, which we didnt want. Ours has the 3rd row. Our payments would still have been more on a new one paying the 4.9% for 60 months on $29k. Thats even if we could have gotten that. I found that here in CA no dealer was willing to match the TMV pricing. And I searched all dealers within 100 miles of me.
 
We originally offered $26,500 on this used one, and they acted like they were going to fall off their seats. Typical I know. I sorta wish we would have negotiated a little more, but $27k was our max so it is what it is. We are happy with the car.

I am now getting $1200 below their invoice + 0% financing, do you think it is acceptable? I am not sure if you mean $2000 below invoice with or without 0%, which does make $1500 difference.

Loaded 08 Highlander by camane72

Is it possible to get the Base price on a Limited AWD Highlander in NJ for 2K less than invoice? And is it reasonable to get invoice on Nav, Moonroof, Rear HVAC, Power back door, and rear spoiler?
 
Plus, 0% financing for 36 months?

I have been watching the Toyota lots in Baton Rouge, LA for over a month. The inventory has not changed much. They have many 08 Highlanders available. I have talked to two of the three dealership. They both started at invoice. They also both asked what other quotes I had received. I feel like if they start at invoice I should be able to get them to go lower. Does this seem reasonable?

That seems like a pretty good deal. The 0% over 36 months saves over $2000 in interest payments -- this assumes a $28,000 loan and an alternative loan of 5%.

This is a good deal. Where did you get the deal at? I am in Pittsburgh. Over here, most dealers wanted at invoice.

adding leather/sunroof by findme
Oct 15, 2008 (3:50 pm)

There is a used 08 near my home. When I inquired about the vehicle, I found that it was a basic HL without options that I really want. The salesman informed me that he could add leather and a sunroof to the vehicle. He claims that the leather they add is better than Toyota provides and was telling me that their sunroof would have a lifetime warranty from leakage where Toyota only has 3 years warranty. Has anybody went this route having the dealership add the features? I'm a little scared about the prospect of adding them, but I am very thrifty.
Thanks!

Typical cost for Toyota Factory Sunroof is about $1000. I think Leather is usually
available as part of package for Highlander.
 
You didn't mention costs for aftermarket versions for 08 Highlander.
I'd estimate $1200 for sunroof and $1500 for quality leather.
First thing, this Used 08,what's the mileage, is it a very good deal compare to
New 08 Highlander? That matters the most IMHO.
 
Even if this used 08 is a good deal, I'd think twice before spending close to
$3000 for aftermarket sunroof and leather. With current economy,you should be
able to find New 08 Highlander with options you want for not much more than
this used 08,if you have to spend $3000 on top of its price.
 
As far as quality of aftermarket sunroof-It maybe okay,but I doubt they will have
lifetime warranty on leakage! Some aftermarket leather is very nice-But usually
cost quite a bit.
 
Good luck!
