STONEYBROKE. I too have been looking for the exact car in the last 2 weeks.
found a demo for 28500 with 6 k miles, found several dealers out of state with the same cars, all wanting 28-30K. AND that is with a 750 cash rebate. The NADA book on this car with only 5 miles is only 25K. They will not budge. So as soon as you leave the lot there goes $3,000 bucks. ..they think the touring is so special...It is special, especially as a rental car..Check EBAY. What it is is they are stuck with these cars they have had for 18 months and cant sell and now insisting on getting everything they have into them.
I am now on to an 09 XLS for under 31K. for $3,000 or less more than the 08, I am getting a brand new 09 with all the same options and the JBL stereo.

I bought an '09 XLS last September and paid $30,300 for a $34,700 car. No Nav (didn't want it) no JBL ( would have taken that). I really wish the Avalon's suspension was a little more taut and the car handled better. The tires are not made for spirited driving either. All that said, it's a great car, so says the primary driver (my wife).

What dealer was that and did they have a 1K rebate in May?

05 LTD, Low miles, Good Deal? by poley

We're looking at an 05, 32K miles, loaded. Problem was, we took it for a test drive and within about 20 miles, the check engine light came on along with the VSB light. At one traffic light it lurched when I accelerated from a stop. Upon returning and idling in park, the tac went down about 5K and seemed to want to stall. Any experience with this? Is it costly to fix, or under warranty? Asking price was about $20K. We are concerned because it is Certified - shouldn't they catch and fix this before putting it on the lot?

Either run the other way or have them fix it and then take another test drive before making an offer.

Because there are not a lot of Avalons available now and it appears the model will not change for 2010, you would do well if you get 8-10% off the MSRP.

2008 Avalon Touring by toyotron

Has anyone got a good deal on a 2008 Avalon Touring recently? I saw a couple of dealers around Houston advertising $19900 for those with around 35k miles on them. Is this a good deal? Should I try initial offer of $18000 or is that too low? Thanks in advance.

When i was looking for a 2008, in the beginning of this year, i saw a lot for about $24k with less than 30k miles. I ended up buying a '08 Limited with 18k miles for $24500.
 
I think $18k would be a good offer to start with.

No sure how your numbers can help us. Did you buy from a Certified Toyota dealer? Location?
