Replying to: mj_superman (Nov 20, 2008 11:47 am) Blizzard Pearl is supposed to have about a sticker premium of $200. Assume that the $5k rebate basically compensates the consumer for depreciation associated with purchasing a model year end Highlander (even though the 09 model doesn't seem to have any appreciable differences... part of what makes the deals on the '08 especially attractive IMO). On that assumption, the $5k rebate would equate to purchasing the vehicle at "invoice" adjusted for depreciation. The price you're getting quoted appears to factor in the $5k rebate + perhaps another $1500 give or take. So think of it as getting $6k - $6500 below the adjusted invoice or $1k to $1500 below invoice if you were buying an '09. FWIW, I was unable to find any dealer in my area that was willing to go $5k below the original invoice on the 08. So, to me, I felt like I was getting the vehicle at invoice which is usually considered pretty decent for a popular make/model. I'd be surprised if you'll find much better and I don't know what area you're in, but some of the '08's may start to get picked over depending on the trim and option pkgs you're looking for so if you're ready to buy, for the sake of sounding redundant, I think you have a great deal on the table. |

31,950 + tax, tag 08 Limited AWD - Silver/Ash Navigation Auto Rear A/C Carpet Floor and Cargo Mats Heated Seats Cross Bars Real Spoiler Power Moonroof Power Rear Door Tow Prep Does this seem like a good price. This is in NC w/ the 5000 rebate. This region has a 945 advertising fee. Is this a real fee? My region doesn't have this. Thanks.

08 Limited FWD Navigation Heated Seats Power Rear Door Auto Rear A/C Moonroof Spoiler Tow Prep Floor Mats $29,467.99 +++ The quote I had on the Sport before was on a config that I couldn't get... talen316 is/was right, if you have a good deal, take it to get the color combo and options that you want. Once the prices got close enough between the Sport and Limited, I felt drawn to the look of the "wood" and the smart key so I had to go Limited.

Replying to: cfunn (Nov 20, 2008 12:22 pm) Hi! Any response on your offer? Which part of the country was this offer made? Does your OTD price include Tax, Title? Also, are you excluding trade in price?

Replying to: thl08 (Nov 20, 2008 3:43 pm) For the trim/options that cfunn listed, I believe you'd be at a price of ~ $28,500 (factoring in the $5k rebate) + tax, tags & doc fees. In NC, that would put you OTD ~ $30k. |

I have recently looked at a limited toyota highlander with 25,000 miles, pretty loaded. The MSRP was 30,991 dollars. I recently had a roll over in my 4 runner and it is totalled. Not settled with the insurance co., People who hit me driving without license or insurance. Need to buy fast, as I am renting a vehicle. What should I offer for this highlander. I mean it is certified, but it would be under manufacture warranty up until 36,000 miles . Anybody have any ideas how to negotiate this. Ideally, I would like to offer 26,000. Is that way too low? Apprecitate any tips. |

Replying to: iwantvan (Nov 20, 2008 4:37 pm) Not sure what that $945 fee is all about. I don't recall seeing that charge when I bought mine, but perhaps it was buried somewhere else in the overall cost???

Replying to: jmg_50 (Nov 20, 2008 7:04 pm) $33,000.00 OTD this is all taxes and no trade in MSRP on this one is $36959.00. I am in the Houston Texas area. I will go for this due to the fact that the Blizzard Pearl cars are starting to go away. The only thing not on the car is Navigation and DVD. We don't want them so that is ok. Craig |
