You did great!
You paid Invoice price for your car!
Now if you got 0% APR for 3 years or 1.9& for 3 years, it would be even sweeter!
Enjoy Your new ride!

GREAT deal on '07 Corolla S by kzturtlegirl
Feb 27, 2007 (1:35 pm)

I just arranged a deal for a new 2007 Corolla S manual with ABS, side-curtain airbags, and the EVP #1 that includes alloy wheels, power windows, remote keyless entry and cruise control AND those stupid carpet mats. (I think this means at least AB, CK, Z1,BE... I don't really know all the codes, just the features - edited, I found the codes: FE, BE, CK, AB, VP, CT).
 
Price out-the-door, including $750 cash-back, all fees and our hefty 7.75% tax in southern Nevada: $16,500.
 
I pick it up tonight!
 
Story: I wasn't all that sure that I really wanted to buy a new car, vascillating all this month. I had contacted the dealer earlier this month for a quote, getting a quote of $15,395 (including $750 cash back), without fees and taxes. More vascillating, more angst, I often woke up thinking about the car. A different dealership (Findlay Henderson) quoted me $16,000 (including cash back), plus an additional $700 fees (VTR and documentation), and then I'd have to pay taxes on top of that. Hem, haw, fret fret fret. So today, I totally low-balled the first dealer (Centennial Toyota - Las Vegas) at $16,000 out-the-door, taking advantage of the end-of-the-month sales quota frenzy, almost hoping he would tell me to take a hike and make my decision for me. They came back at $16,500... I can't pass it up. Dealer invoice alone is $16,645. Taking into account our taxes and the exhorbitant documentation fees Toyota adds on here, that's close to $1,000 BELOW dealer's invoice, PLUS my cash back. All done by e-mail and phone calls.
 
Yippee!
 
Now I just have to sell my Kia Sportage. 2001. Excellent condition. Any takers?

Congratulations! Not only is the price good, you got a manual transmission, which is a big plus in my book!

That and ABS. Which is a hard combination to find. I feel much better having the side airbags, too. We've had a few cars with automatic, and everyone (including a Toyota - Celica - what a waste of a sporty car to put an automatic in it!) eventually ended up with debilitating transmission problems. Our manual '88 Toyota 4WD truck, however, with 265,000 miles on it, just needs a new clutch every 70 - 100k miles, which we can do ourselves. With front-wheel drive, and a much lower clearance, the Corolla may be more difficult to do a clutch job on than the truck, but it's still better than finding myself 100 miles from anywhere, in the desert, with a failing transmission.
 
It's also peppy! I loved driving home in it at 65 miles per hour, with the tach at only 2200. 40 miles later, my fuel guage was still pegged at the top!
 
We're planning on this lasting a long time - in just ten years my oldest will be driving (eeeeks!) - it will be a good car for her to learn stick on. Every driver should learn how to drive stick, IMHO. You never know when you'll need to know!
 
BTW, price for the car, without tax, doc, VTR, etc was about $14,300. We did buy the extended warrantee, adding about $1200 to the price, but since we drive our cars to the ground (except this Kia we want to get rid of), it's worth it to us.

Corolla 2007 LE automatic by slhm

Just bought a new 2007 Corolla LE automatic today in Savannah, GA, and thought I would post the price in case it would help someone else:
 
For the car (includes audio value package / cruise control):
 
$16,000
 
PLUS $369.00 fees, and tax, tag and title. $16,500 OTD, with 3.9% APR financing. They offered a price of $16,000 OTD, but I would have had to finance at a much higher interest rate. Hope this helps someone!

'03 Corolla vs pre-'03 models by bottgers
Mar 07, 2007 (8:01 am)

I currently have a '99 5 speed Corolla with 105K trouble-free miles. My youngest daughter will be turning 16 next year and wants this car as her first. Our office secretary informed me that she would probably be looking to sell her '03 Corolla 5 speed around that time as she will be looking to purchase a new Civic. I need to know if there's anything about the '03 model I should know about that would be of concern to a '99 owner. I don't know much about the current Corollas, but I sure see a lot of them on the road.

The only thing I have ever heard bad about the '03 was something about the serpentine belt tensioner. I think I remember something about a TSB to correct a problem.
 
Good luck from one '99 5 speed Corolla owner to another!
