Looking to buy a Sequoia by reau

We are looking to buy a Sequioa next month. Is it possible to get an SR5 with leather interior? Leather interior is the only option that I must have. I live in Meridian, MS and my dealership options are limited. I e-mailed three dealerships within a two hour drive. Received responses from two. One came back with cloth seats and $7,000 worth of options I didn't want. What exactly is "leather faced seat package"? Is this full leather? It costs $1,698 and then they listed cloth captains chairs for $745 on the same invoice? What's up with that? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. DebbieR

In NY that package gives you full leather plus steering wheel audio controls.........It doesnt give you leather door inserts like the Limited has and the seat backs are probably not leather, but who sits on the backs of the seats??
Why not build a Sequoia so you get exactly what you want? It takes about two months but I think it was well worth the wait. Mike

Check a couple other Sequoia threads and search for leather. A couple members here added aftermarket leather for a cheaper price with better quality leather and highly recommended it. They can probably give you better details on e-mail.

Check the inventory on the internet at Fort Bend Toyota. Request a quote and they will send you their lowest price. We purchased an SR5 and I believe we got a good deal!

AJINNM,
What dealership quoted you that price? I've requested information from Sterling and Fred Haas Toyota but was wondering if one has a better reputation than the other.
Thanks!

Well, in Alvin, TX actually (just south of Houston) - at Ron Carter Toyota. Just bought a fully loaded SR5 with after market leather, driver and pass window tint, and rear spoiler for 1% over invoice, which worked out to be something like $340 over invoice. The only costs after that included sales tax of 6.25%, inventory tax of 0.2%, and $149 documentation and title fees. I found that their "below line" fees at Ron Carter are low compared to other dealers. Plus, the buying experience was very easy and professional, with little haggling required. I probably could have squeezed them on a few hundred more dollars for some of the advertising or holdback fees, but I felt that I was getting a pretty fair deal. I think that 1% over invoice is pretty good for almost any vehicle. Oh yes, I also took advantage of the $2000 cash back offered by Toyota right now on the SR5's -- expires on June 2.

How much did you end up paying for the Sequoia in Alvin? I'm looking for a good deal and want to know if the additional $1000 most dealers charge for advertisting, TDA(?), MAF(?) are negotiable.
Can't seem to find any site that mentions these charges but dealers don't want to see to give them up.
Anyone in Alvin I should talk to?
 
Thanks!

All right, we test drove today. As to my question about the "leather faced seat" package - it looks like a completely leather interior to me. Unfortunately, we got a guy who has only been selling for a couple of months and was not at all knowledgeable. Had to look up everything in the brochure, as we were driving the Sequioa.
 
Well, we think now we want a solid white, only to find that you can only get a solid color (other than silver) in a Limited. Do I really have to pay for a bunch of extras I don't want to get a solid white Sequoia? How stupid is that????
We are talking about $6,000 just so I can get a solid color car? Go figure. You would think it would cost less to get a solid color car.
 
I just really think the two-tone colors will date the car. I kept my last car for ten years and it still looks pretty good.
 
Is the extra money worth it? Are the Limited's that much better?
 
Thanks, DReau
