Just purchase a new '08 Corolla LE on Saturday. Installed options include: (FE) 50 State Emissions (CK) All weather guard package (VV) Audio value package (AB) Anti-lock brake system (BE) Side bolster & curtain airbags Purchased the vehicle through Fitzmall. Listed price was $15590 + tax, title, and $99 dealer fee. Total OTD came to $16331.70. I did spend about $60 in gas to travel to Maryland to get the car. This OTD price was around $1000 less than any local NC dealer could give, so it was worth the travel. For those that are wondering, the process of buying through Fitzmall was painless and hassle-free. You do not have to pay Maryland sales tax if you do not live in Maryland. Fitz will collect the sales tax for your state of residence, collect title and tag fees for your state, and charge you the $99 dealer processing fee. Your tags and title will then be processed by them in your state of residence. You will leave the lot with a 60-day temp Maryland tag. I took the 5.5 hour drive up there to pick the car up. If you are unable to drive, they will meet you at a local airport and seal the deal there and you will drive off with the car from the airport. I looked at this option also. A short flight from Raleigh to BWI would have cost me about $56 at the end of the month. After arrival, it took about 30 minutes total including a 10-15 minute test drive. We arrived, inspected, test drove, and signed the paperwork. 30 minutes later we were on the road again. For around $60 gas and a 1-day road trip, I saved close to $1000 from what I could have bought locally. Very pleased with the car and the car buying experience from Fitzmall. I would recommend them to anyone.

Just got a (as it turns out hard to find) 2008 LE 5 speed with the following: (FE) 50 State Emissions (CK) All weather guard package (VV) Audio value package (AB) Anti-lock brake system (BE) Side bolster & curtain airbags (CF) Carpet floor mats (4 piece set) MSRP 17,590 Total before TTL was 15,000 even. This is net of rebate and there were no bogus dealer fees tacked on. I used Bill M. at Jones Junction. Had I not gotten it there, I would have gone with Fitz. This was actually a better deal. He got the car on the lot without even a deposit, and did not try to play any games with added fees. Plus it beat the Fitz price. Oh, and it includes lifetime free oil changes and Maryland State Inspections. I would highly recommend them. (The Fitz salesman seemed like a nice guy too. He was just a little too late and more money.)

I think I am obliged to report my purchasing for a new '08 Corolla LE, automatic transmission on Saturday. Installed options include: (FE) 50 State Emissions (CK) All weather guard package (VV) Audio value package (AB) Anti-lock brake system (BE) Side bolster & curtain airbags Purchased the vehicle through Dunning Toyota at Ann Arbor, Michigan. MSRP $18,390. Total OTD came to $16700.00. Compare with the price at fitzmall.com, this OTD price was pretty close. The price of the purchase by madrasputin #1767 at $16331.70 is comparable with my purchase, as the tax rate at NC is 4% while MI is 6%. This would have made a $300 difference. Thanks for everyone who provides information about the purchasing prices/methods to get good deals.... |
