#1443 of 1474 Re: New 2008 Avalon XLS for $30,287... a good deal? Need your opinion! [bobgwtw] by vivaretro May 09, 2009 (5:28 am)
Replying to: bobgwtw (May 08, 2009 7:50 pm) bobgwtw, thank you for your message. It's helping me a lot! I think I should be more careful with this deal... If it were 09 model, I would have taken it, but it is an 08! Its value will drop so fast like you mentioned.   Now, I was looking at 09 models too, and found something disturbing.   For the same model, let's say 09 Limited with Nav option, edmunds' price is $37,935.   However, on the dealerships webpag, the same car is listed at $40,295 as MSRP.   Is this possible? Can they just jack up the MSRP like that? I thought MSRP was set by Toyota.   Whatever MSRP they have, I can pretty much claim TMV price ($34,642) right?   Oh my ignornance...

Replying to: vivaretro (May 09, 2009 5:28 am) What the dealer calls MSRP probably includes a package of overpriced dealer add ons. I'm always going to try to better TMV, & I've usually been able to do it. In this market, if I were you, I'd start at dealer invoice & grudgingly move up from there. It really is a buyer's market out there.
#1445 of 1474 2009 Avalon XLS by birdyboy May 10, 2009 (5:24 pm)
I got an offer from a MA dealer for a new 2009 Avalon XLS with JBL radio and memory seat options for 29,900. Looks like this is about 700 under invoice which seems like a good deal to me. I'm not in a hurry, is this worth doing now or should I wait until the 10's come out? Replies to this message: toyofan3 (Jun 10, 2009 3:29 pm)
#1446 of 1474 2007 SLX Purchase Price by clarkkent May 10, 2009 (9:44 pm)
What is a fair price?   I'm buying a 2007 SLX with 64K on it. It is Black with light gray leather.   It has everything but memory seats.   It has leather, sun roof, ele, heated seats, Trac control, 6, dis. cd, side molding, new tires (50 miles on them.) + all the standard SLX stuff. Climate Control, etc.   Oil changed every 3K (I have all the records) washed every day. (yes every day) sales person. All highway miles.   I have never seen a cleaner car with 64K in my life and I have had a lot of cars.   Not a scratch. Two sets of Toyota floor mats as this sales person put in new Factory mats every year. One set being used, one new. He has already gone through two sets.   Car is perfect.   The book says 19K+ price, but I don't think you could get that.   I know the owner. He is a fanitic about his cars.   He paid 32K 2 years ago.   What would be a good price?
#1447 of 1474 shopping For '09 Limited by 06graylimited May 13, 2009 (6:47 am)
Been trying to buy an '09 Limited with a sticker price of $36,400 and so far the best quote I have is $33,600 which I don't feel is low enough. I will continue shopping to see if I can better this. I would appreciate any input from others. Replies to this message: simon7 (May 13, 2009 6:57 am) 06graylimited (May 13, 2009 7:38 am) tpalmer1 (May 28, 2009 5:10 am)

Replying to: 06graylimited (May 13, 2009 6:47 am) Did you order one with the Nav system and Laser Cruise Control? If you did and the quote is $33,600, I think it is a good price and below invoice. I ordered one last month without the Nav but with the Laser Cruise and paid the exactly the same price you were quoted. I love my Avalon Limited!

Replying to: simon7 (May 13, 2009 6:57 am) The one I am shopping for was a Limited without laser cruise or navigation. So far I am offered about $2,750 off sticker price and I am thinking a better price is possible. I am curious how you like your laser cruise control. All but impossible here to find laser cruise without also buying the navigation. Replies to this message: tpalmer1 (May 28, 2009 5:10 am)
#1450 of 1474 08Leftover Touring by toyofan3 May 27, 2009 (2:36 pm)
I have my eye on a few 08 Leftover Avalon touring models. VSC, Sunroof, heated seats. Sticker is a little over 32K. They have been sitting around for over a year...WHY? Anyone have an idea what a dealer would take for these cars? is 25K plus tax, title and registration reasonable?
#1451 of 1474 Re: shopping For '09 Limited [06graylimited] by tpalmer1 May 28, 2009 (5:10 am)
Replying to: 06graylimited (May 13, 2009 7:38 am) I have an '06 Limited with laser cruise and navigation. I really like the laser cruise. It is a great safety feature on the highway. I wish my other cars had it. It doesn't work in the rain, though. As for the navigation, I really like navigation systems and I would not buy another car without it, either. However, compared to the Honda, it is inferior unless they have improved. You cannot select or change your chosen destination while moving. Still though, I like the navigation system, but this is one shortcoming. It is much better than an aftermarket, though, and you don't have to worry about a factory navigation system being stolen.
#1452 of 1474 08 Touring Price by stoneybroke Jun 03, 2009 (6:28 am)
I've been looking for a new 2008 Touring with stability for some time. Finally found one with the following:Leather, heated seats, stability&trac, carpets&floormats, special paint (Blizard Pearl), moonroof, touring pkg. and wheel locks. Msrp was 33K. Dealer wants 28K + T&T. Deal is straight up with no trade. What do you guys think? Replies to this message: toyofan3 (Jun 04, 2009 5:02 pm) jamesewells (Jun 05, 2009 5:45 am)
