Eastern MA V6 SE by hyphaefungi

I went to IRA Toyota in Saugus first. All was well. In comes manager. They had a high pressure manager come in for me when I specifically told them I wasn't interested in purchasing the car for at least another 6 months, which was a lie but nevertheless.
 
I then went to Woburn Toyota. Got a V6 SE in silver. Added leather, heated seats. The car came with the 6 Disc In Dash CD which is not what the website or kelly blue book or edmunds.com says is standard, but it was. This was confusing as it's part of the premium package I was interested in. The new standard equipment in the V6 SE is slightly different from what's listed online/brochures, so keep that in mind when you do your math.
 
$23,500 including 400 recent college grad discount. 0% for 36 months.
 
V6 SE with premium package MINUS cargo net.
 
I also got suckered into the 6 year/100K mile extended platinum warranty. (I drive a lot) - ~$1300
 
And I got Lojack + Alarm system. - $795
 
Please don't tell me I got ripped off.\
 
Had a fairly easy time at Woburn. They started me off at 24,999. Invoice I think was 23,000 but I was confused with the equipment.
 
STEER CLEAR OF IRA. If you go, tell your sales associate to NOT BRING IN A MANAGER or you'll leave. It was very unpleasant.
 
Happy hunting!

20th Anniversary Edition? by alpha01

I have never heard of this? Do you mean the 2004 LE Limited Edition? If Toyota is calling this the 20th Anniversary Edition also, they'd do well to check the record books and find that the Camry was introduced for the 1983 model year, so technically, we should have seen a 20th Anniversary edition LAST YEAR. I really like the 16 inch alloys on the 2004 LE Limited, but disappointed that the car is only offered with the LE's same rear drums, and not the rear discs of the V6s, XLEs, and SEs.

I think maybe some Toyota regions have unique "editions" that are not available elsewhere. For example, I was visiting family in Columbus OH last summer & stopped by a local Toyota dealer. They had an "American Edition" which was some alloy wheels (really cool wheels BTW... not the V6 dog dish wheels), a spoiler & some other small stuff added to an LE 4cyl (some had factory moonroof, others did not). Back home in the Mid Atlantic Region, there are no "American Edition" Camrys anywhere.

Are not cool, IMO, and make predicting resale value of that specific model difficult. For what its worth, 18fan, the rather horrid "dog-dish" alloys of the 2002/2003 LE V6 have been replaced this year by much more attractive, though similarly smallish, 15 inch alloys.

16 inch wheels by motownusa

Can they be put in a 2003 LE V6? I think the 15" is too small for the Camry. When the time comes to change my tires I think that is what I will get if it can be done without compromising the ride and handling.

I am looking at getting the Camry. Not sure what model I want yet, but I do know that I want the side curtin airbags. Did anyone buy their car in Maine? Looking for a good deal. Thanks.

What information, exactly are you looking to get? Its hard to help you if you dont elaborate.... If you're looking for a good selling price, do this (which I said not 10 posts ago):
 
1) visit buyatoyota.com to see the Camry packages that are avaliable in your area. choose one, take note of options included, and the MSRP.
 
2)go to carsdirect.com. build the exact Camry that you built on buyatoyota.com. Compare the MSRPs, they should match. (sometimes they are off by a hundred bucks or so, no biggie, as mfrs. are constantly changing pricing). take note of the "Invoice" price, and the "carsdirect.com" price, which will include reginonally available rebates.
 
3) go to dealer and use information to bargain.
 
Best of Luck.

Hi,
What college graduate rebate is this? Edmunds does not seem to indicate any rebates for the camry now.
Thanks
