Camry invoice pricing can vary by region, which might explain some of the variability in the consulting of websites.
 
Alook- the 6 CD changer is standard on the Avalon XLS, and the top model, the Limited has the JBL Synthesis system. So you're a bit wrong.

My bad Supernova, Avalon XLS has 6-cd changer but at MSRP over 30k isn't that expected unless you are getting ripped off by the Autobahn car companies. Cars at half the prices have it.
 
I can see market prices and destination charges varying by region, but invoicing for same vehicle coming from same factory? Doesn't happen with other brands.
 
I have never been able to have Toyota dealer show us the actual factory invoice, just an internal fakey document. His "invoice" on the Camry LE w/ side air bag+curtain option plus distributor installed package of alloyed wheels, upgrade alarm, pinstripes, cargo net and all that protection gimmick was $21,118. Not possible! Its closer to 20k! Take factory MSRP X 90% and you will be fairly close to his invoice.
 
I am still looking for Camry LE with VSC as Toyota website indicates is possible. Anyone get VSC on Camry LE?

different invoice prices in different regions by peachtreecity

Southeast Toyota Distributors, Inc. is an independent, family-owned company that buys cars from Toyota and sells them to the Toyota dealers in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, and South Carolina. They set their own invoice prices for the cars, which are sometimes different from Toyota's national prices, especially for delivery and options. They also set the consumer rebate amount for the southeast region. There is a similar arrangement in the Gulf Coast region. Kelly Blue Book (www.kbb.com) attempts to show these different regional invoice prices, although they are not always correct.

Just last night I bought & drove home my Camry XLE V6 withe VSC and Side & Curtain Airbags, and Toyoguard plus (which by the way is a waste of money but it was already on the car).
The VCS & Side and Curtain Airbags are about $1000 invoice. The Toyogaurd is $699 MSRP and they say they have no "play" with that figure so I don't know what invoice was - maybe 400 +/-(?).
I paid right under $25,000 before taxes & before finance charges. I'm financing only $20,000 for 60 month at 2.9 (which by the way they don't offer on the XLE - only the LE - but they dealer can "buy down" the rate) and the interest I will have paid at the end of 5 years is about $1500. So all in - at the end of the 5 year loan, I will have paid about $28,000. I think it's a good deal considering the Camry XLE V6 has more bells & whistles and luxury extras than my husbands Lexus ES 300 - which cost substantially more.
Good luck!!!

For a 4-cylinder Camry XLE, I actually got a quote for 22K over online. Went the dealer, test drove the car and sat down and talk with three different persons, from salesman to fleet manager. Work out the number and got it down to $359 per month at 3.99% with $5,000 down payment. If you do the math, that comes out to be around $26,500. Before I went in, I figure after adding sale tax, finance charges and other fees, the total price I would pay for the car would be around 25K. I thought 26K was a little too high for a 4-cylinder XLE, so I ended up walking out.
 
I remember seeing finance charges was around $2,500. Does anybody know how finance charges are calculated over 5 years period? I don't how it came out to be over 2K, if the rate is at 3.9%.

Rebates March - Chicago area: Ended? by phili

It looks like cash rebates ended 2/28 in my (Chicago) area. Do the rebates only start at the beginning of a month, or could they start anytime
i.e. would it be April 1 at the earliest for new rebates? Thanks.

My sources show that the $700 rebate on the Camry is good through 4 April.

Thanks. The rebate shows up this morning (3/7) though it wasn't on the sites yesterday. It shows it's good from 3/1 to 4/4.
 
One other question: besides going to a dealer at the end of a month, does it matter if you go at the end of a quarter (i.e. March 31?).

Good Day phili! I am glad to help you out on the Camry information. The XLE is one of the vehicles on my "possible" list along with the Accord. I do not know the answer to your question on the end-of-quarter purchase. You might want to ask this question in the "Any questions for a car dealer" forum in the Smart Shopper section.
