| The dealer in Asheville, NC (JIMBARKLEYTOYOTA.COM) has prices BEFORE tax, title & registration posted on their web site. I purchased an 08 4wd Ltd loaded this past April from the Vero Beach, Florida dealer after informing them of the NC price. They matched the NC price. Of course since then the price has dropped $2,500. | |

Just bought an awd 08 Highlander Limited in MA with nav and dvd, heated seats, crossbars, auto rear a/c, moonroof, power rear door. The MSRP was $42,418. We paid $35,000 with the $1500 rebate (before tax, title and registration). If we had waited a few days, we would have gotten the new $2000 rebate.  Is $35,000 a good deal? I was also surprised to find out that this car is not satellite ready in the traditional sense. We still need to pay upwards of $650 for antenna and receiver. The button for SAT is in there, so I guess Toyota considers this "ready."

Replying to: jath59 (Nov 05, 2008 10:42 am) Very few HLs I've seen come with SAT factory-installed. It is almost always a dealer-installed accessory, but $650 is very high. I paid $400 in May on my '08 HL LTD AWD. Make sure to ask for a technician who has specifically been trained on the install...you'll be glad you did as antenna placement and cable routing are much more clean. Good luck.

But maybe I think that only because I have the experience of buying from a different manufacturer. The price given was $250 to install, $399 for the equipment. |

Hi. I negotiated a deal on a Manager's Demo with 5,500 miles. What are your thoughts on this? Highlander Sport 4WD JBL Radio/6 disc changer/bluetooth pkg Cold Weather pkg Front Climate Control w/steering wheel controls Auto rear AC for 2nd and 3rd row Power moonroof Tow pkg Cargo mats Delivery processing and handling fee Total MSRP: $35,080 Total deal $30,500 We can also take a rebate of $1250 if we decide not to do the 0% financing and pay in cash. In this case we got price down to $29,000 even. Is this a good price considering there are 5,500 miles on this vehicle? Thanks! |

After I have read several posts here I feel like a fool. I have just purchased a 2008 Highlander Ltd. 4WD pre-certified with almost 25,000 miles on it for $36,967 + tax and fees. (purchase made in Connecticut) It has leather seats in all 3 rows, JBL premium audio system with 4-CD changer & Bluetooth, power back door, heated seats, satelite radio ready, navigation, special paint, driver's seat with power adjustable lumbar support, rear view camera, dual illuminating vanity mirrors, alarm system, smart key start, keyless entry w/chrome trim on the outside, rear heat system with controls in back, sunroof. After reading several of the posts I am realizing that I was completely taken advantage of. I specifically selected a dealership that is a BBB member and also provides AAA members with their best haggle-free price. The only positive thing that I can add is that I will have free oil change for life, free tires, and free battery for life as long as I service the car with them. I thought that I did my research on pricing, but I guess I still have a lot to learn. Ouch, this hurts. krb1

Vehicle is 2008 Limited, Peral White, Ash Leather. Add ons are 6 disc JBL system, Blue tooth, Heated front seats, Power rear door, Rear Air, Window tint, XM installed, Carpet Mat set, Wheel locks. Current offer=$31809.22 + TTL $34046.36 drive out. No finacing. Taking the $2000 rebate. Question about rebate. Should I be looking for a better price and get the rebate cash, or are they always going to take the rebate from the price offered? I guess it is all the same, just looks like the dealer is giving less, by giving me the rebate I already get?

Hello - I am looking to purchase a 2008 Highlander SPORT 4WD in the next few weeks. The options are: Auto Rear HVAC Cold Weather Pkg Front Dual Zone Auto HVAC Homelink JBL w/BlueTooth Sunroof Tow package Mud Guards Carpet Floor/Cargo Mats The dealer is offering me $30,934 +Title + Taxes + Tags + processing fee. This does not include the 2k rebate that they're offering now. The out the door price is 32,300. I looked up the invoice and it's $31300 (this includes the destination charge). In short, they're giving me roughly $400 below invoice. Good deal or not? I've seen some posts here that say I should be able to get at least $2000 below invoice. Are people actually getting that? And is that with the 2k cash rebate or not? Any help you can provide would be great. With the economy the way it is, we're trying to save money where possible!!!
