Today (6/28/08) I bought a new RAV 4 Base 2 WD (4430) at Toyota of Orlando with the following options (there was only 1 car on the lot with the third row, so not really options but already on the only vehicle on the lot, with almost no cars with a third row available anywhere): Car ------------invoice $19888 Roof rails----invoice $176 Daytime running lights--invoice $32 50/50 Split 3rd row seat---invoice $760 Toyota protection group--invoice $159 AM/FM 6 Disc in dash CD--invoice $250 17 in. 5-spoke alluminum ally wheels--invoice--$448 Floor mats--invoice 192.50 Fuel surcharge--- estimated invoice is 80% of MSRP- $27.50 A= Invoice price (with options) $21833 B= Holdback (in FL 2% of invoice price) $437 C= Wholesale reseve (1% of car MSRP $21500) $215 Dealer cost= A-B-C = $21181 Delivery charge $735 TDA at this dealer $700 (included dealer prep) If I had offered 3% above dealer cost, I estimate my price would have been $23900 I got the car for $21750 (which included the delivery charge) +700 TDA= $22450 + TTL. Oh, by the way I was initially quoted an initial price of $22995- got to the dealer, and the sale price was $21995, and they lowered it to a final of $21750) If my calculations are correct, the cost of the car before delivery and TDA was $21015, which is $100 less than the dealer's actual cost. Appreciate anyone's comments. I think I got a steal, but could be wrong. I was already told by the internet Sales manager that since this was the end of the month, the initial price she quoted ($22995) was subject to further reduction, and sure enough they were very eager to deal on a car with a third row that can hardly be found. |

I'm looking for a RAV4 base trim with V6 engine and 4WD, Options includes: - cargo area tonneau cover - daytime running light - towing package - carpet floor mats - and some dealer installed VIP package (the one that I don't like) The OTD price is 27500, which is kind higher than what I expected. I already tried hard with the dealer today. Any one has some ideas about this price. Is it fair or not? Thanks. BTW: I lives in seattle.

Hi I would like to make sure I am understanding the invoice price on this well: The best quote I am getting from a dealer on this car is $20928 + TTL (includes options, accessories, destination fee) Configuration I have: Base Model + Option B (MSRP $480) + accessory Carper Floor mats (MSRP $199) I do plan to negotiate this price down further but can you please tell me if this is a decent deal? How much lower should I offer to the dealer? Thanks Rahul

Does any one know if you purchase the car with a credit card?
