Am looking at 2007 Avalon XLS, 9000 miles, nav, does not have heated seats. Asking price is 27999. Does this sound about right? Thanks!

I have a 2001 XL purchased Sept 2000 using only the internet, and I paid $500 over invoice (based on Edmund's invoice info). I live in central Ohio and I emailed most of the Toyota dealers in Ohio (Attention Internet Sales Manager) indicating exactly what color and options I wanted and that I was willing to pay $500 over invoice. I had no trade in and no financing - a simple straight forward deal. Several dealers did not respond at all but one immediately responded and did not quibble with my price based on $500 over invoice. The car was delivered 100 miles to my driveway, for no extra charge. It was a great car buying experience! I am ready to buy another Avalon and am thinking of doing the same but am wondering what amount over invoice is appropriate now. Is $500 or $600 over invoice reasonable now? Whether you bought an XL, XLS, Limited or Touring, what was your price relative to invoice? And in what state was the purchase? |

Replying to: jmbklj (Jun 30, 2007 1:04 pm)  $500) but not incl. tax. MSRP was $32k. I believe this means I paid $1,252 below invoice. I test drove car then went online to see inventory & found one I would be happy w/then called that dealership to make offer then I also called dealership I test drove with to see what they could do. I went back & forth a bit but from home w/o pressure. Dealership I test drove w/were no hassle therefore they got my sale. I'm in the Atlanta area.

In the market for a new Toyota? BEWARE of Jim Coleman Toyota in Bethesda, Maryland. Recently I had a horrendous experience there. The long and the short of it is that they jerked me around on my trade-in by outright lying about its condition. And it wasn’t a “minor” lie that they tried to propagate. All of this was done to lowball my trade, I am sure. Why they couldn’t come out and tell me they would only offer X for it, and leave it at that, I don’t know. No, they took it one step further and manufactured a lie, a lie which took me the better part of a day to resolve, and in the process greatly upsetting my wife and I. These people are scum for doing that. I just wanted you to know. Avoid Jim Coleman Toyota of Bethesda, Maryland. |

Replying to: avalon2nd (Jun 14, 2007 5:56 pm) Just had my first oil change and 5K service. All seems to be working very well. I have noticed an excellent improvement in gas mileage. Highway miles 31+. Really pleased with the ipod connection installed by Best Buy. |

| Does anyone know if there will be any price incentives/rebates on the 07 Avalon? What are the chances of me getting near or below "invoice" prices on an 07? I live in northeast Pa. | |

Can anyone share their buying experience in the DFW area on the Avalon? I'm currently in the market and has just begun my research. THANKS!
