Replying to: kitland (Dec 15, 2006 2:26 pm) phillyfrontier: What a nice find!    Do you also get the leather seat? Our sales told us that the moonroof and leather seat come in one package. He also told us that V6 Limited are very hard to find, almost impossible.    Anyway, I will want the 3rd row, and the remote start is a must for me with the baby in the winter. So I might not get the same as you did. Any, congratulation and enjoy the driving.   No I didn't want the leather. The sunroof is a stand alone option. V6 limited are scarce, and we thought we would wait 6 weeks, but gave the salesman a couple of color options and bam, he had it there in 3 days. Our second choice color being the pacific blue (which we got), turned out to be a lot nicer than the darker blue. The 3rd row may add to the difficulty to find one. My opinion though is to stay away from the 3rd seat, it is really only big enough for a 10 year old. The space under the floor is big and useable.    I noticed on another forum, people are slamming the price, but price is only a part of having a satisfied purchase. This was the cheapesy of the 3 closest Toyota quotes and the least hassle by far. Plus we got more on the trade, and added the college rebate at the end.

Replying to: jayjay7 (Dec 12, 2006 1:29 pm) I wish I was in DC! I was shopping in NYC for V6 Limited 4x4 with Leather, Moonroof and JBL in Pacific Blue. Contacted about 15 dealers around here from Brooklyn, Long Island, New Jersey. Brooklyn and NJ did not take me seriously, kept playing games. One dealer in Long Island asked me to put down $500 deposit and they promised to find what I need with a $500 over invoice price tag. That sounded fishy, since there was no car to reserve, just a promise... The best quote I got in Brooklyn was $1000 over invoice. About a week of chatting with local dealers turned out to be useless and the dealer's games annoyed me. Luckily, I was closely watching the Fitzmall inventory on daily basis and at the beginning of December they got a decent increase in their inventory, including just the car I was looking for at a good price of $200 over invoice + 99 adv fee. The delivered internet price on fitzmall was 28,188 + 99 adv fee. I immediately put down $100 to reserve the car, which is currently on the boat from Japan, should arrive within a week or two. For me, it is much easier to drive 240 miles from NYC to fitzmall, DC than waste my time arguing with tri-state area dealers.

What is the right purchase price for 2007 RAV4 4X4 Base V6 7-seater no options in Northwest (seattle, WA)?   I have heard people say that now RAV4 are in stock and they are going below invoice - is that true ? Replies to this message: banjolaya1 (Dec 27, 2006 1:12 pm)

Replying to: jinman1 (Dec 27, 2006 12:44 am) Sorry to burst your bubble but not really. Believe it or not, that's one of the first things the salesman told me at the begining of the negotiating process. "We are not going to sell you this RAV4 at invoice." You know, maybe you could get some other cars on the lot (Camry, 4Runner or any other that comes with rebate, meaning it's a slow seller) but RAV4 sells. And it sells pretty darn well and fast. I found that Toyotathon doesn't mean anything when it comes to RAV4 (no price breaks) or the fact that it is end of year and sales quotas need to be met... No help. No pricebreaks. In the end, it is you and the salesman. If you're good, you'll get a "decent" price. Please note - I didn't say a killer deal. I found the negotiation to be just as difficult as any other day.
#1160 of 2367 2007 RAV4 4x2 Sport V6 - San Diego by gadgetgirl Dec 28, 2006 (2:22 am)
Hi everyone,   I'm posting this info in case it helps someone...I just purchased my 2007 RAV4 4x2 Sport V6. Here's the configuration:   FE - 50 State Emissions EJ - JBL AM/FM 6-Disc, In-Dash CD Changer CD - Tonneau Cover RL - Daytime Running Lights SR - Moonroof Z1 - Preferred Accessory Package (Mats, etc.)   Color: Flint Mica   I e-mailed and spoke with several San Diego dealers. All of them offered $500 over invoice. No negotiations on advertising fee or holdbacks. So...my price $25708 + tax, doc and license fees.   This is a huge purchase for me and I wonder if I got a good/fair price... Any opinions?   Thanks!
