Hi Everyone, I am in NYC, researching prices in the Lake Worth, FL area for my mother. Plse let me know if this is a good deal: Camry XLE-4cy $21076.00 $36.00 fee $1264.00 (6% tax) $175.00 (tag) $22515.00 (without rebate of $750.00) If this is high for the area, where should the pricing be? Also, is roadside assistance part of the warranty? or should she purchase the Toyoguard, offered at $240.00? (from this dealer). I just read alot of these posts and found out that this dealer is also the authorized dealer for Costco, so it will be interesting to see if he comes up with a better price now. I will also investigate some of the dealers in South Miami that were recommended to other people here. Ahything else you can recommend?? Thanks in advice for any help you can give me! Gerri |

This is the awe place to get the useful information from folks and I also would like to share my bad experience with folks to let people keep alert when they deal with the same or similar situation. At about 11:00 AM on March 20, 2004, I called the salesman in Jim Lynch Toyota Dealership in St. Louis, MO and asked him if he could beat the price $17228 for a 2004 LE, 4 dr., 4 cylinder, automatic silver Camry with ABS, JBL system and floor & trunk mats. He said he COULD and he had an exact car I was looking for and offered me at $17128. At about 1:00 PM on my half way to the Dealership, I called that salesman again to make sure that Camry with those options still available. He said YES. At about 1:00 pm I met the salesman, did the test drive and sat down with the salesman. He filled out the purchasing form with the price that he offered me on the phone, then he went to the general manager to get approved. At this moment I was happy to get a good deal. However, two minutes late, the salesman came back to me with the price $17687. I was shocked and asked the salesman what was going on. He said the general manager approved the previous price at $17228 for me when I called him on the phone, but he didn’t approve now and increased price with $559 more. I told him I wanted talk the general manager. The general manager came in and told me I didn’t know how to negotiate the price. I said, “ If you told this earlier on the phone, I don’t bother to come to your dealership now.” At 2:37 PM, I left Jim Lynch Toyota Dealership with disappointment. I finally end up with Seeger Toyota Dealership in St. Louis, MO for a 2004 Camry. Seeger Toyota offered very good price and service. They are very professional and honest! I highly recommend !!! |

What's up with Sunnyvale Toyota? I saw their sign: new owner! new management! Are business not good there? Aren't Toyota dealers doing so well that they can turn away customers? Last time I went out for a Camry, I went to 4 Toyota dealers. The first one, a sincere saleperson tells me the sticker price is the price that I have to pay. The second one, we loved a used camry, the manager told us he had no problem selling it since it was in just one week ago and refused to take my offer, which is 500 below his bottom line. The third one, the manager very politely told us we should go to the other dealer after we told him another dealer had a lower price than his. The the last one, S Toyota, everything was fine except a sales person wanted to sell us a new camry with 109 miles on it. So here I am wounded up with a Honda Accord. |

| I guess you would be "wounded" if you bought a Honda instead of a Toyota. | |
|
Definitely "wounded", but not by the 03 Accord. Will try my luck next time at some other Toyota dealers. |

Be sure you send Lynch Toyota a link to your complaint on Townhall here, so they know that there is a price to be paid. To reduce the chance of similar experiences in the future, be sure you speak with/deal with the Internet Sales manager. They are MUCH more honest than Joe Floor salesmen who like to play those games. |

| When one purchases a new Camry is it normal for the dealer to charge an additional fee for advertising? I have heard this before- that all Toyota dealers charge this fee. Is this correct? I am in the mid-west. | |
