2005 Camry XLE 6 cyl. with Navigation by fullyloaded

What do you think of $26,417(without CA tax.) for this? I know about the $750- rebate or 1.9 to 2.9 financing. This price does not have the $750 deducted.

New car warranties and selling a used car by alloy
Mar 31, 2005 (6:56 pm)

I'd like to get some input on two questions:
 
Does anyone have any pros or cons they can share about the extended warranties and car maintenance programs that you can purchase from Toyota? For a new car up to 5,000 miles, you can purchase an extended warranty costing a little more than $1800. I think it's good for 7 years or 10,000 miles. If you decide before the 7 years is up that you have not or do not want to use the warranty, then you can have your money refunded. Hence, it's no cost to you if you don't use it. However, I am leery about Toyota coming back to you after your 6th year or something and telling you that you can't get your warranty back for this reason or that, or because you did or didn't do this or that. Does anyone have any experience with that? How about the car maintenance program for about $1200.
 
My second question has to do with a used car. I drove my old car to the Toyota dealer hoping I could trade it in for a new car. The problem is that it didn't make it there. I don't quite know what's wrong with it, but it overheated and is burning oil. I don't know now whether it will even pass smog. Since I couldn't get it to the dealer, I couldn't get it appraised. The trade-in value is around $500. The private sale value is $1800, and the retail value is $3400. I know I have three choices: 1) donate it, but the new tax laws are not in my favour, 2) get it to the dealer and see if they'd give me much for it, 3) put money into it and sell it private party. I only thought I'd throw this question out there to see if anyone had any other creative ideas on what to do with this car. I went ahead and purchased a new Toyota despite not being able to do a trade-in for it.

You might want to visit our topic called Advice on selling your car. A lot of sales professionals hang out there, and can give you advice on the best way to get rid of your car and maximizing whatever $$ you can get out of it.

Sandy Springs Toyota dealer in Atlanta is the worst dealer I have seen!!! by azhua

I gave them my price to them for camery LE.At first they did not agree.But they called me at the end of March to tell me to pick the car at that price because they need to sell enough cars in that month.When I went there they refused to gave me that price,and cheated me to buy Camery basic with that price.You know why?Because they already sold enough cars before I arrived.
I was so angry because they played in this way.You know I called them before I drove to there place.They said:' come on to pick up your camery LE'.But they changed the decision in 1 hour(my dirving time).
Sandy Springs is most unhumanity dealer I have seen.You guys if do not want to be cheated by other people.Do not believe them at any time!!!

2005 Camry XLE - is $27,000 OTD a good deal? by buttercuprules
Apr 03, 2005 (1:23 pm)

I need to evaluate an offer for $27K OTD on a 2005 Camry XLE (with premium plus package, VSC & side air package, heated seats and carpet floor/cargo mats).
 
This effectively represents $228 over Edmund's TMV. (I only included the invoice, options and destination charge from the dealer's offer for an apples to apples comparison). The total OTD offer represents roughly $1000 over an "agreed upon" invoice price (this car isn't on the lot - must be ordered, so there's no actual invoice. Just a near happy medium between the dealer's number and what I've reviewed in several reputable websites).
 
I guess I have two specific questions really. One, Is $1000 (roughly 4.5% of the agreed upon invoice price) appropriate? It's the top of the range I had in mind, so it feels high to me. Two, am I getting hosed on fees? Excluding sales tax (3% in NC), I'm looking at $635 Southeast Region Toyota "administrative" charges and roughly $500 in documentation, tags & licensing. Is it just me or does almost $1200 in fees seem high? (It's been six years since I've bought a car.)
 
I liked the salesman. Felt he was generally very straight with me and he's with a reputable local dealer. I'm just having trouble feeling like this is a good deal (i.e. the dealer's making up for a lower starting point on the back end with the fees).
 
I'd really appreciate any thoughts or feedback.
Thanks.

texas info by rickem

To the post regarding TX tax info - multiply the price the car is selling for (including destination fee) by 6.25 %. Add roughly $200 dollars to get the approximate out-the-door price you're gonna pay.
 
The big 3 cities will always have the lowest prices if you're willing to travel.

2005 Camry SE in Chicago Area by peanutsman

I recently purchased a new 2005 Camry SE 4-cylinder automatic with 16" alloys, spoiler, moonroof, fog lights and JBL 8-speaker combo.
 
$22,666.00 MSRP
$20,066.00 TMV Price
 
$18,963.00 (including $700 rebate) Plus Tax, Title and License
 
I almost purchased a loaded Mazda3 but I opted for the roominess, smoother ride, and reliability of the Camry SE. I think the extra money for the Camry SE was well worth it.

How to Buy a Camry with XM Radio? by 307web
Apr 04, 2005 (5:57 pm)
Reply
How available is XM, really? Do dealers stock the cars with factory-installed XM radio?
 
Playing around with the configurator of a Camry SE 4 cylinder on Carsdirect.com, I noticed that when you select XM radio, some other options become not available at the same time.
For instance, you cannot order XM and the subwoofer at the same time.
You cannot order XM radio plus cargo net at the same time???!!
You cannot order the SE Premium Package with leather seats with XM radio.
 
What is this about?
 
Can you get an SE V6 with navigation and XM at the same time?
