Replying to: mikec (Mar 10, 2008 1:13 pm) The warranty starts on the day the car was first purchased regardless of the "model year." A 2008 purchased in April will have more warranty time available in two years than a 2009 purchased in February and it makes sense to get the one with the most warranty time and mileage remaining. It makes no sense to pay more money for a used car that has more miles, less warranty remaining and has no changes or improvements to it. Even if they were both exactly the same and purchased on the same date, you still will not get the extra $1000 (from loss of rebate) back at resale (or even $500). |

Looking for a 2008 Camry LE w/ leather, sunroof, and VSC for $22.5K OTD. Any thoughts on whether this is a good price? Thanks

Replying to: frankrom22 (Mar 11, 2008 6:59 am) They make some aftermarket leather kits that are designed to work with airbags and will probably still work normally, but no one will take guarantee it if it isn't factory stock.

Replying to: mikec (Mar 10, 2008 7:42 am) Dealer in Marin California has been running an ad for 2008 Camry Hybrid with $4521 off MSRP of $31119 for a sale price of $26598 plus a $1000 rebate for final price of $25598. I have never bought a car there and made the mistake of giving them my phone number. They never called when they were running these ads( I wanted $4000 off MSRP last Nov) but did call all the time when they were priced higher. Good price but don't give them your phone number.

Replying to: 3150lsd (Mar 11, 2008 7:44 am) I had had extensive conversation with both, and there is no way they will even get close to that price. Based on conversations I've had with friends who have bought there, they do a little bait and switch/teaser activity. Suckering the supposedly rich Marinites tends to be their MO. Moreover, I have visited both of these dealers in person (I am in the SF Bay Area), and they won't budge much (at least over the past month). Most are in the 28,500-28,900 range (before rebate on 2008). $4,000 off MSRP on a 2008 or $3,000 off MSRP for a 2009 might be tough, but you can get $3,200 off without much fuss ($2,200 for 2009). (2009 MSRP of a maxed Camry Hybrid is $31,070) The lowest I've seen is $28,200 for either 2008 or 2009. (not inlcuding $1,000 rebate for 2008.) I guess the "slow" economy isn't affecting these cars much; I know if I wanted a Chevy Malibu or Ford, I could deal. |

Replying to: frankrom22 (Mar 11, 2008 1:26 pm) That would be about 27,575. Not sure what state you are in; in CA license and doc is about $350. So that would be about 27,200. You may be able to get a 2008 for that price, (including $1,000 rebate), but not a 2009. If you can get a 2009 for that price, you are getting a great deal.
