Yes, I bought Camry LE for 20,500 out the door from Crystal Auto Mall on Route 22, Green Brook, NJ. If it is allowed here, I could also suggest the name of the salesman who got me this deal. The overall buying experience at Crystal was good..the negotiation lasted about 15-20 minutes. If you want to buy from Crystal, you should consider that they have a very small inventory. I had to wait for about 2 weeks to get a 4 cyl metallic grey LE without moonroof.
 
I got over-the-phone offer of $20,800 out the door from Route 22 Toyota (on Route 22, Union, NJ) but I had problems with their committment and offer. I confirmed an offer of 20,800 OTD with their online sales manager, and he asked me to stop by and buy it from a specific salesman. When I called that salesman in the evening to confirm, he denied the offer saying it was too low for him to sell. Next day, the manager called again and asked me to stop by, and the same thing happened again. They were either playing games, or were just too stupid.
 
I negotiated with at least 4-5 other Toyota dealerships in NJ, but no one quoted below 21k OTD.

Camry Hybrid Price... by tchcrofton

The sticker was $27,969 and I got it for $25600.
 
Not a bad price. Just do your research and go is with a
printout for a dealer that advertises Internet Pricing.
Like this one:

Your dealer will either come down, or you can go to another
dealer.
 
Another way to do it is to contact a few local dealerships
and ask for their best and final price on the car you want.
They'll either give you a good price, or at least give you
something to take to another dealer and see if they can
beat that price.

So....I posted back in December regarding my purchase of a new, fully loaded 2007 Camry XLE V6. Just 3 months after I bought it, I was in an accident with only 5500 miles on the car . While sitting in traffic, I got rear ended by two cars, and the impact pushed into the truck in front of me, so there was damage to the front and rear of the vehicle. The car has been at the body shop since March 26th and is scheduled to be ready May 16th. The car has incurred about $16,000 worth of damage, and needless to say, I'm not sure if I want to hang on to it.
 
SOOOO, I am considering buying the same exact car, if I can find it with all of the options!! I appreciate anyone letting me know about any deals you've come across in the VA/MD/DC or Atlanta, GA areas--Thanks!!

I made an offer of $20,800 OTD for a black 07 Camry LE auto, CX10 rear lip spoiler, PV50 mats, and AWAT alloy wheels.
 
NC sales tax is only 3%. Title and tag is $72. MSRP is $22,674. They did not take my offer of 20,800, but offered it to me for 21,300 OTD.
Was my offer really $500 off. Anyone else bought a camry near Charlotte, NC? I have seen a few deals on here that was better than my offer.

No, your offer was not really $500 off. It's just the way dealerships do business in the art of negotiation. Basically, you offered too high. They will always counter with something like $500 more, and then you counter, and then they counter, etc. At this point, it looks like you will eventually settle at $21,000, so when it's your turn to counter, counter low like $20,900 (or better yet: just say either $20,800 or you'll take your business elsewhere). Anyway, at least now, you have a "price to beat" of $21,300, and you'll need to get a few more dealerships involved and see if they can beat that price or match your offer of $20,800. With the next dealership, try offer a little bit lower like $20,500 or $20,000.

Camry to be delivered May 25 - Currently no VIN? by raleighpr

I asked Leith Toyota to give me a VIN number so I can switch my insurance before the camry arrives on the 25th. They responded with this......
 
Right now, there is just an (interim VIN). I should have a (real VIN) by the end of this week or beginning of next week...
 
I was under the impression that all cars have a VIN and never a temporary VIN. Am I getting a run around.

Ahhh...yes.
 
When I bought mine, I had ordered it w/VSC (which isn't readily available in the SE, let alone Raleigh). I knew when it was supposed to be built, and I could see it on the Toyota website when it was built. It was easy to track which one was mine, due to the model/color/features. I was able to watch over time as the manufacturing/shipping dates changed a couple days slightly, and finally arrived at the Anderson dealership. I went to the dealership, and knew it was there before the salesman was told. It had the exact same VIN number as when I first saw it on the website.
 
I suspect they either haven't taken the time to investigate it, or they're doing some dealer swaps to get your vehicle.

I was tracking it on the dealer website and it showed it was assigned to Leith and to arrive on May 25. It no longer shows up on the dealer web site and cant seem to locate on the toyota website. Interesting. I do not think it is a dealer swap since it was originally assigned to Leith. Thye probably just havent looked into it

Do you have the website you used to track your vehicle? I have a VIN and would like to search where my car is in transit .

The website I used was the main Toyota website, and then going in to the build a vehicle and check inventories section. However, I understand that the functionality of the website is substantially different based upon the area of the country and zipcode you are in. I'm in the SE.
