rchen9 -- Hello. Do you mind sharing the MSRP for your Rav4?
 
I looked up the MSRP for your listed options on Edmunds.com and I came up with $28,865. If that's right, you managed about $2600 off MSRP. My dealership (salesman) says the most he's seen anyone get off is $500 (Boise, ID), but I think that's BS. I'm trying to figure out how low I can reasonably go and still feel confident that there's a reasonable profit in it for the dealership. Thanks!

pmschneidau:
Boise isn't all that far from Lewiston, and I was able to get almost $2500 off MSRP there from John Uhler at Roger's Motors. You might want to give him a call; tell him Chuck from Spokane referred you, and that you want the same deal I got: $500 over invoice. Good luck!

homerfan -- Thanks! That's just the kind of info I need. I know I can get $2250 off a Camry from this dealership here, but they have about 20 Camrys on the lot and only 2 Rav4s right now. I'm not sure how relevant the number of vehicles on the lot is in this case, though. I'll give John at Roger's a call if I need to go that route.

Only found one dealer in Prairies discounting Toyota: Funk Toyota in Steinbach, Manitoba, about 900 miles from Calgary.
Just bought a new RAV4 Limited V6 from Prestige Toyota in Billings, Montana, MSRP of $30,868, invoice 27,988. We paid 29,500 all in, for a saving of about 2,600 over Calgary price after allowing $400. to fly to Billings, stay overnite and drive back. Aklso got the interior colour we wanted and a bluetooth connection -- both unavailable in Canada. Vehicle arrived in Billings about three weeks after we placed the order. Dealer was first class. A very good experience. Billings about 500 miles from Calgary.

How I got the deal was I contacted Costco Auto Program. They locate me a dealer within a couple hours of drive who participate in their program. They give $500 over Invoice on RAV4s. MSRP-500 is not a good deal at all. The sticker price on the model I had was around $26,500. Invoice my dealer gave me was $24,692. But I got them to go below that for $250. The longer the car stays on the lot, the more they are willing to go below invoice. Usually, it's over a month or two on the lot I heard.

rchen9 -- I made a typo in my first post. The MSRP I came up with for your vehicle was $26,825, so that jives with your "around $26,500" sticker price, and it's still over $2,000 off MSRP. I'm glad to hear you had good luck negotiating below the CostCo price. I'm in no hurry, so I think I'll use that to my advantage and keep an eye on how long the RAV4s are on the lot. See ya'.

I cant believe I got it under invoice. I went in prepared, I did my homework. I had one dealer say he'd give one to me at invoice and another emailed me that I could have one 300 under (but that was in dec, they currently had none on the lot, no V6's). This dealer tried to get me 500 over invoice and I stood up to leave and he went back to his mngr came back 200 less and I said no and then got up to leave and my husband said wait lets talk, he said lets offer them 24K and see what they say. Well the guy went to his mgr again and 5 min later came back and tried to see if we'd finance with them and we said give us the final offer and they agreed to the 24k and the RAV was ours. We did not finance with them.
It is for our son and he is estatic over finally getting it.
 
Cheers to the RAV4
ps - it is our 4th toyota
we have a Avalon, Sienna and Highlander

Good job, toyotafam. Where do you live? Did you buy your other Toyotas from the same dealer? Maybe you got such a good deal because you were a repeat customer. At any rate, it is good to hear you got an invoice price going thru a salesman. Usually, keeping the retail salesman out of the picture will produce the lowest prices. Hope your son enjoys the RAV.
