#675 of 3429 $100 over invoice by murrayoperi Jun 02, 2003 (6:59 pm)
Bought this on April 30 using the fax attack and info from fightingchance.com. Here are the details:   HL LTD 4WD  with   Z1, LA, TO, UQ, SR, HP, N1, BE, VD, HD, SD, EJ   Dealer Invoice 31557 MSRP=35939 We paid 31667 before ttl and group ad charge   The interesting thing was that the deflector and the hood protector were not listed on the dealer sticker or invoice, but were added at the dealership and we were not charged for them. Also, they had added side window deflectors too. So, we got some options for free and thus really paid less than invoice.   Also, Toyota sent us a check for $500 to help us choose the HL over the Pilot.   fighting chance.com and the fax attack method made this a completely stress free experience--no hassles, no worries, no stress and 1.9% financing for 48 months!   The dealer handled us with kid gloves. We were in and out of the dealership in about an hour during which we went over the vehicle carefully, did the credit app, listened to the dog and pony on the owner's manual, met with the finance guy (no pressure to buy ext. warranty, undercoating etc)and signed all the paperwork.   Our out the door cost with TTL and the group advertising charge was $32382   It is an awesome vehicle! The family is enjoying it and we feel we got a great price. MP

All I see are new HL prices. How about some input on previously owned prices for 01 and 02 model years, or is it foolish to believe anyone has already traded in their favorite HL?

In addition to any posts you see here there are typically several Highlanders for sale on eBay at any given time.
#678 of 3429 Need help...is this a good deal? by gbenninger Jun 04, 2003 (11:53 am)
Live in SF and went Toyota dealer last night for 3 hrs. Left at 11pm because I didn't feel I clearly understood the terms.   The Highlander V6 2WD on lease...3yrs $370 inclusive of taxes with a residual of 14,977 with 15K mi. per year. Can walk away with no commitments or purchase car...should blue book be less than 14,977 the dealer will pay the difference. Looks like I would pay $1,347 under 28,500 MSRP.   In turn they are offering me 15,500 trade in for my 2002 Honda Accord with less than 10K miles.   Could use some input before I go back and close the deal or look else where.

there are helpful places to look for this info.   Try   carbuyingtips.com   for one. That site does have some resources on leasing.   I'd also contact fightingchance.com. They do offer packets for leasers, but you may be too far along for their help. But if you call them they can give you some sense of it. Go to their website to get their phone number.   Good luck

Thanks I will surf those sites and see what I come up with.

Some quick comments on your deal. It seems that $1,347 under msrp is too high since there are incentives on the Highlander at the moment. Check Edmunds new car prices to get the current TMV and then subtract the Toyota to customer incentive. That should be the best price that you can get. Secondly, what interest rate are you getting? They are pretty low right now you should be able to get around 5%. I am not sure about residual values on the Highlander, but make sure you are getting a good price on your trade-in. Look up the price on Edmunds used cars to verify you are getting a good price. Finally, how much you owe on your Honda will determine how much you have to finance on your lease. Given all of that it will be difficule for somebody here to tell you if you are getting a good deal since there are so many variables. Leases with a trade in that is still being financed are complicated transactions and it is easy for dealers to get the best of you without doing a lot of research. Good luck. One thing I know is that the Highlander is a very good vehicle and you should be happy with it once you decide when and where to get one.

Hi Mauijim3, Congrats that's a good deal. Could you share what financing rate you got? Who is the dealership? Did they have 1K rebate at that time? I am thinking of a highlander but the price seems around 24K. Your response is very appreciated.
