Wow!! You bought a Camry Hybrid for $22,995? How long ago did you get it? I'd venture to say that with gas prices at $4 a gallon you won't see that kind of deal now. At least not in my area of the woods. Thats assuming you can even find one. All the Hybrids are order only with waiting periods approcahing 4 months for the Prius. I wonder if thats the same everywhere?

Need honest opinion fast by steved192

Ok...I need some opinions fast! We're in the nitty gritty on negotiations on the 09 XLE I4 with the hail damage. It's MSRP is $26400, and right now we've got them down to $23,000. I want them closer to invoice, which is $22,300, but they're saying that is not the right amount for their invoice, meaning we've got it wrong. We've cross checked repeatedly on the internet and that does seem to be the invoice.
 
We really need them to come down $500 or so, otherwise we just can't do it. Are we wrong to think that they might be able to come down some more?

There's no 4.3K markup on the Camry...may be on a Lexus. If the MSRP is 26.4K, the invoice should be around 24K.

Look up the invoice price on Edmunds, or request them to show you the invoice price. Still, I think that even invoice price on hail damage is a rip-off, because they probably received insurance settlement for it. I don't think that you should be paying more than about 1 % more than invoice for a perfect, non-hail damaged Camry.
 
Good luck, don't be afraid to walk away from that dealer and try another.

Everything I am finding on the internet has the XLE 4 cylinder at $22,300. I can't find anything that shows a different number than that. I'm figuring they probably got about $500 for hail damage and $500 on holdback, right? So I'm thinking they have room to move. I asked them to include a spoiler and the XM radio receiver, but they won't budge on that at all either.
 
We're actually looking at Honda Accord's, too. I'd much rather have the Camry, but I kind of feel like I'm getting the run around with them. I guess I could be wrong, though.

2008 and 2009 Camry Hybrid's Availability and Price by kuvaszok

I was hoping to buy a 2009 Camry Hybrid, or even a 2008 model, for a good price - and in the next few days - but after reading steved192's comments in #6400, I'm beginning to think otherwise.
 
If anyone has some advice, or even an update on the 2009 and 2008 Camry Hybrids, I'd appreciate it.

In the Raleigh-Durham area, Priuses have a 2-month long waiting list but there are a few TCHes on the lots (this info coming from a dealer I spoke to recently). I don't know how deals are going down, though. I have this sinking feeling that I missed the window of opportunity that existed a month or two ago. That's OK - I can opt for something like a Honda Accord and try to drive frugally if the Toyota dealers don't want to deal. Another option: buy used - I've seen some decent prices on gently-used TCHes and Priuses. Better yet, I might just wait for the new 5-door Honda hybrid to hit the lots - if it is based on the FCX Clarity as alleged, it'll look a lot better than either a Prius or a TCH!

I don't understand. He's getting a $3000+ discount from a specific dealer on an XLE (with hail damage). What would that have to do with your decision to get a TCH

I was at a Raleigh dealership about a month ago, was sitting there waiting on service and my salesman walked by so I struck up a conversation with him. He indicated that the P demand was extremely high, and they weren't discounting at all.
 
(Now whether I had check in hand and was interested in one he'd not deal....I don't know)

Hail damage, again by steved192

So we're still dealing with the hail damaged vehicle. Does anybody know if something like that will go on a carfax report? If this isn't the right area to ask, will someone to direct me to the correct forum? Thanks.
