We called 9 dealers and asked for the names and e mail addresses of the fleet manager. We sent out the letter that AOL recommmends in their buying tips for a quote. 5 responded. Mossy and Toyota Carlsbad were the lowest. Classic Silver exactly as specified. We arrived on saturday at ten am as per our appointment with the fleet manager. We were met by a salesperson who gave us the keys to the car and it was freshly washed but still had the plastic on the mats and stickers on the windows and he sat in the back seat and we took it for a 20 minute drive. We came back and he said do you like it and we said we will take it and we went in his office and signed the paper work and the price was exactly as quoted $20,066. We had to take our rental back to enterprise and so he followed us up to the car rental and brought us back to the dealership and our car had the final detail finished and we went to the finance guy to get the DMV sticker and listen to his 5 minute sales talk on GAP Insurance (dont buy, get it added to your insurance for pennies) 5 year warranty (buy online later for 1/3 the price of the dealer) We said no thank you and he said may I ask you why? I said it is a personal reason of a financial nature, are we done? We left the dealership at exactly 2 minutes to 12 noon after one of the very attractive young women gave us a complete run through of the operation of the cd player and all the nobs and trick things the camry has. Let me know of anyone that can purchase a vehicle in less than two hours. You can do it at Toyota Carlsbad but you have to do your homework first.

Has anyone gotten a good deal on the LE in Houston, TX? If so, please let me know what price you got it at and which dealership you got it from.
 
Also, is it better to buy the '09 right now?

Here's where I'm going... by scottc3

I recently bought a Prius, 2008, package 5, list price was $28,464, I paid $24,504 BEFORE all taxes / fees. This was 86% of the list price. Using the same logic on the Camry (for my wife), the list price is $31186 - this is a leather, Nav, heated seats, ... car, so taking 86% of this puts me at $26,847. I will pay $800 for the 100K extended warranty, tax will be $2282, Doc Fee, $55, DMV electronic filing, $28, License, around $250, puts me at $30262 out the door. I will have a trade in also, -$3,500, so my cash price will be $26,762.
 
Anyone see anything wrong with this thinking?

Using the same % off of sticker for 2 different car models with different markups and different incentives from the manufacturer probably won't work.
 
Also, that is the first heard of paying $28 extra for "DMV electronic filing."
Might as well let them file by mail. There is no rush and, if anything, they probably should be discounting it rather than charging extra since it's a convenience to them.
It's only a few extra dollars in a $24K transaction, but that actually makes it that more annoying for them to nickel and dime that fee since they can pay a flat $200 per month fee for all their cars.
 
The $55 doc fee is already supposed to be paying for their time spent submitting the DMV paperwork. Now you get to be charged two fees.

Most maxed out 2008 Camry's are going for a few hundred over 27K (which includes the $1,000 cash back). That's before tax, title, license. If you can get it for $26,800, good for you - and share the dealer, as that would be a great deal.
 
I agree with jaxs1 that comparing % of list price across cars does not work well. You have ot look at each model, and see what the market is for those.
 
Right now, I have seen $4K off MSRP for 2008 and $3K off MSRP for 2009 Camry Hybrid (fully loaded). That should be the starting point for your negotiations. I've heard some people improve upon those numbers, depending on the region and the desperation of the sales force/dealer to make their sales numbers.

Just bought a used 2007 Camry LE by graffixx

We just bought a used '07 Camry LE 4D today in LA county. It has 28163 miles on it.
Sticker was $16,988+fees
 
The manufacturer warranty is 3yrs/36K so we knew we only had another 8K miles on it. We were offered an additional 4yrs/48K extended warranty for $1500.
 
After haggling with the dealer for a bit, we were able to get the car for:
 
$14,500+tax 8.25% (license fee was already covered for 1 yr)
$1500 extended warranty
 
Total: $16000+tax
OTD: $17330
 
What do you guys think? Did we walk away with a decent deal?
