A reporter from a large newspaper is looking to speak to consumers who traded-in a larger vehicle for a small compact car to save money on gas, but spent money on options to get something more comfortable and appealing. If you’re interested in speaking to the reporter, please contact Chintan Talati at ctalati edmunds.com with your daytime contact information no later than July 9, 2008.

I am a new customer buying a new 09 Corolla LE with cruise, keyless and preferred accessory package (floor mats, trunk mat etc). My dealer is offering me 17750 out the door including all taxes/fees etc (16200 before taxes). Do you think this is a good deal for the San Jose area ? Anybody with previous experiences with Toyota dealers in SJ - please respond. |

| Wanted a 2009 Corolla XLE fully loaded, all dealers in the Lehigh Valley section of PA area have few 2009 Corollas let alone a XLE loaded. They tell me Corollas are flying out the door. Dealers don't get many XLE's anyway. Most people(unlike me) just move up to the Camry if they want a Toyota equipped well. I, on the other hand, prefer to stick with a Corolla for it's economy and then get it loaded the way I want. They said they would try to locate one from another dealer but basically I just think they just ordered one for me. I wanted moon roof, spoiler, stability control, JBL sound system, alloy wheels, body side moldings, mudguards and carpeted floor mats. Ordered it for around $500.00 under TMV or $1000.00 under MSRP. Not the best deal but the best I could do. | |

Replying to: rospotte (Jul 08, 2008 4:25 pm) rospotte Thanks for your response. I got concerned when jaanbaz posted that he got a Corolla LE for an out the door price of 16.3K. That is more than $1400 less than the deal I am getting. I do understand that people are talking more about gas saving cars. On the other hand, the dealers are overplaying it too much - no matter how you try to bargain, their response is always about gas saving !! I am trying to get a feeling of what offers others are getting in california, specifically the bay area. Any help there is greatly appreciated.

I was made an offer over email for a 2009 Corolla with an MSRP of $16909. I wasn't given any additional info, but according to Edmunds, this MSRP happens to correspond to a base model with AT, mats, and destination charge. The price I was given was $14999 (there was some sort of dealer discount of $1910). If it is indeed a base model AT with mats, is this a good price for this car? According to Edmunds, this is below invoice.

Just spoke with Don McGill Toyota in Houston. The guy in fleet refused to take 1 penny off sticker price. Said that is what they are going for. Not even a thought to pay sticker for me. May have to start looking for another brand.
