Here's the story, actually i was looking to buy 08 Rav4 limited v6 leather seat AWD but they try to persuade me to buy limited v4 FWD which they have in stock. So i made an offer 26000 OTD with leather seat plus trade in price for my car 9500 and i will put downpayment for 4000. after i made my offer they call manager to deal with me and surprisingly after a big while of talking he said yes with 26000 OTD with leather seat. Then he passed it back to the finance person. The finance person didnt say anything and start to ask me to sign the paper. I was wonder all a long and asked to see the detail of the price and the amount that i have to finance. When i saw the total amount that i have to finance he put 19,xxx so i asked him why the total amount to finance come up to 19000 because the deal we agreed is at 26000 OTD so the amount we finace should be 26000-9500(trade in) = 16500. So the finance called manager to come in again and then i ask this guy the deal that we agreed is at 26000 OTD riight? why 19000 came from? the total to finance should be only 16500. The finance guy try to convince me that i dont need to look at that amount if i can get co sign, the monthly payment will be less. But i keep asking about the total amount to finance So he pretend to calculate and look in the computer and then tell me oh that was because of the extended warrantees if you dont want it i will take it out for you. (I have no idea when i told him i want extended warrantee and he put it for me without my permission)Then he passed it back to the finance guy and this time i signed everything and came out from his office to go get the car suddenly my bf reminded me about hey whay about 4000 downpayment that we put!!!!!!! I totally forgot about the downpayment and they didnt mention anything the second time that he fix the finance amount from 19xxx to 16500. The amount to finance MUST BE 26000-(9500trade in+4000downpayment)=12500. So i ran back to the office and ask what happening here? why they doing business like this,it ridiculous!!!!! We been dealing with them almost 4 hours and at the end i found out they try to rip me off. Then the manager guy just tell me oh no no no i coulndt give you 26000 OTD. It's the totally different story when we made a deal. So i cancelled everything. I am very disappointed and angry on how this dealer doing business, SHAME ON THEM

I bought a RAV FWD Base 4 Cyl model with factory installed standard options (roof rack, daylights, cargo cover and net, CD AM/FM etc.) for $19,850 from Fitzgerald Toyota in Maryland. the only thing this price does not include is taxes and registration, which should come to about another $700. Because I said I will register and title the car in VA myself, they waived the $99 processing fee, and gave me a 60 days temp tag for $15. I dealt with Harry Dayal and he was great. I did this entirely on line, contacting pretty much all the dealers in Richmond and DC area. With Fitzgerald, it was pretty much what you see is what you get - no gimmics, no hidden fees etc. When I sent Fittzgerald's quote to the next two cheapest dealers, they both said we can't match this price, so if you can get it that cheapely, go for it, so I did! Do you guys and gals think I got a good deal?

Hello to all, I just joined another great forum. I have been lurking for a few days, and am not sure about this deal. I live in the northeast tri-state area and have been getting prices for the 2008 Rav 4 v6 4x4. The prices I have been quoted seem rather hi, but I just got a lower offer and wondering if anyone thinks it's a ok deal. One dealer gave me a price of 25 k, and another 25,248. The most recent price quoted has been $24,345 after $500 rebate. The only other fee's would be 6% state tax, and $194 doc fee. Base rav v6 4x4 CD Tonneau cover RR Roof Rails AW 17"spoke wheels RL Daytime Running Lights TO Towprep Package Z1 Accessory Package The kbb and edmunds invoice on the Rav, with all options is $24,355, and $24,360 respectively. Does anyone think I can do better at the present time in the market? Any responses or recommendations would be much appreciated...thanks The MSRP on the sticker is $26,987.

Replying to: rupter (Sep 06, 2008 11:21 am) Thats a $1800 difference so if all else is equal your deal is much better than mine . You are getting $2642 off on the $24,345 off the MSRP of $26,987. I am just starting my research but I would appreciate you PMing me with your dealers name if you do not mind. Is that even possible in this forum ?

Replying to: mazda626atx (Sep 06, 2008 4:44 pm) I would think that you should be able to get $3000 off MSRP at this point on that vehicle. What does edmunds say the invoice price is on the car with all options? Also..if you are not picky about options or color..when the 2009's come on to the lot in October they are going to discount the 08's even more. Right now though on 08's they are running 0% financing for 36 months..you can't beat that. If I buy now..I get to pick color and options. If I wait..the supply will become more limited..but the discounts will be more.

Replying to: rupter (Sep 07, 2008 7:31 am) They are within 25 miles of each other. According to the Edmonds site there are no TOYOTA incentives at all . So thankfully you know better than Edmonds at this particular moment Thanks
