Forget it. Corolla is for city commute. I just test-drove it a couple of days ago. It even doesn't have enough power to over small hills. The power looks like less than my 95 Camry (122hp), maybe, the smaller size of cyliders. You should get 4WD SUV. Sequoia definitely works fine but, maybe, it's too big for you. If you want sedan, you have few choices - Subaru.

See my reply in Toyota Corolla Maintenance and Repair, post #3010. Believe it or not, it makes it over long, big mountain grades (8%) just fine. I have made 10+ trips to this area of WV.

How's this for a price:
  
08 Corolla S, Manual
Extra Value Package #1
Out-the-door price (including rebate): 15,323.55
 
I am not in hurry to buy, I am wondering If I should wait until the end next year, for better deals just before the new model comes up but I have no idea when the new model will be available !
 
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your response mcdawgg, so do you think we are seeing the best prices right now?

February 11, 2008 is the date the new Corolla (released as an '09) goes on sale. Obviously, the best prices on the '08 model will be after Feb. 11. However, I would think that their would not be too many '08s available, because production of the '08s has already stopped. The longer you wait after Feb. 11, the less selection you will have, but the lower the price. I would bet that by April you won't see any '08s available anywhere.
 
If you really want an '08 S with a manual transmission (a manual, good choice!!!) and package #1, then you might not want to wait too long after Feb.
 
As for price, I am not sure. Just look at invoice price and TMV price here on Edmunds and compare to your quote. I would think 1-2% over invoice would be fair, especially on an in-stock car. I am sure that they would like to get rid of a stick, because no one seems to want them .
 
Good luck, let us know how it goes.

Invoice + tax and fees? by hbcorolla

Thanks again for your response mcdawgg.
I am a little confused because Edmund's invoice is $15,451.
You mean that 1-2% over invoice would be fair + Tax and fees?
Or 1-2% over invoice TOTAL OUT THE DOOR. With tax and fees include?

If your price includes tax and fees, it is very good - go for it. The rebate must be putting it below invoice price.
