Price seems ok if you value the extended warranty, otherwise a bit high. We just paid $24750 for new 09 Base 4 cyl w/ same package plus 3rd row seat, 6 disk changer, & power drivers seat, and minus the light control package and blizzard pearl. I felt like we could have gotten another $500 off if we were a bit tougher, but this was a transfer and they did not charge for it. My initial quote on the car was 26,100 from the dealer down the street, and we ran from that one.
 
Are you sure it's 4 cyl? '08s only have the V6.
 
We were looking at the RAV4, but with these prices, the base highlander made more sense.

Seriously, another $600 adds a little over $11/mo to a payment. If you're living that close to the edge then you really should be looking at something even less expensive (or an 08 leftover)

onebear99: Don't make such a major purchase emotionally. The previous reply is correct - if you're sitting in the F&I office rationalizing the $11 difference in this purchase by thinking you'll switch to a lower-tiered cable/satellite package each month, or reduce the number of cell minutes you buy, or that you'll eat out one less time each month, then you're buying too much car for what you can afford.
 
Be smart. If you can work a deal, fine. If not, it wasn't meant to be. In this buyer's market however, stand firm at 28K and walk if they won't do it. Remember, your salesperson could be at a Chrysler or GM dealership right now. They're motivated to get your business, because some good sales guys will be dropping resumes off soon.

Hi,
I am shopping for a 2009 Highlander with V6 and 4WD. Just curious, the price you paid includes Taxes, destination and other charges?
 
Like to know what others are paying for this model?
 
Good Luck with your new Highlander

Price included everything but taxes (in MO, you pay them separately at the DMV when you register the car). They had a good number of V6 models on the lot, but we never got a quote for one as we were set on the 4 cyl for the gas mileage.

Is anybody buying a Highlander? Where? by beachfish2

"I am shopping for a 2009 Highlander with V6 and 4WD."
 
I would like to buy a Limited and all I'm finding are empty lots. The state's largest Toyota dealer has 3 base models and 6 or so Hybrids. They have a 9-acre empty lot out back.
 
I have been looking for 2 weeks around Richmond Virginia and west as far as Harrisonburg in the Valley. Also checked web sites for dealers in the D.C. area and at the beach. Two here, three there, and nothing but ugly colors and oddball option packages left. IOW, no I don't want a Limited with the standard stereo and no XM.
 
What a waste of time. I finally called Toyota about when to expect the 2010 Highlander. She was pleasant and didn't have a clue. She didn't even know there was a shortage of Highlanders.
 
I wonder if the Lexus dealer has an RX on the lot?
 
Aw, what the heck, my Avalon just turned 37,000 miles. I don't need a new Toyota and they certainly don't need me.

I think part of the issue is that since they're made in Japan for the US market, and I believe the factory is currently shut down, no one can get new ones to replenish their stock. There are great prices right now, but they really only apply to cars that the dealers currently own. I thought we could go into this and order exactly what we wanted, but that's not the case right now.
