2009 Toyota RAV4 Sport - 4Cyl - 4x4 by kderobertis

I haven't seen any recent post on a 2009 RAV4 Sport - 4Cyl - 4x4.
 
I'm looking on Long Island area and I'm seeing MSRP - 27,014, dealers are only offering 25,194 - 25,550 (w/dest).
 
I think there crazy and told them all keep it.
 
How much discounting are people getting, and are there any dealer incentives, or financing deals?
 
Appreciate any feedback.

I'm glad to find this forum. Here's what I am looking at: 08 V6 Limited Classic Silver with RL running lights $40, TO tow prep $160, T tint $179, DO extra mile D pkg. $1733 ( mats mud guards, etc.), P4 sealant $349. See if this all adds up: $25670 plus $800 delivery/handling plus options of $2461 equals sticker price $28931. I would like to do the 2.9% 60mos option and am thinking of offering $25900 plus TTL. I am in the Dallas Fort Worth market. Thanks for any info.

PLEASE look at my post 2422. I am BEGGING anyone for information on their 09 purchase costs (excluding TT&L) relative to invoice (including destination). Without knowing the invoice cost, it is difficult to determine what kind of deal you have been offered. I would *guess* the invoice cost on the sport you are describing in around $24,500--but that is just a guess. Can you determine (from Edmunds or elsewhere) the actually invoice cost of the Rav you are pricing and post it.
 
So far, the one "solid" offer I have in for a RAV 4WD, 4-cylinder with special value package #1 and backup camera. Invoice (including destination) is $25,898. My offer is $27,200--a shocking 5% over invoice price. I sure would like to know what someone else has done relative to invoice, so I get some idea what is feasible to shoot for.

A lot of our members use fitzmall.com as a baseline price, if they don't have any comparables listed in the Prices Paid forums.
 
You can search their inventory, and they list the MSRP and invoice of each unit, as well as their no-haggle price..
 
Most of their '09 units seem to be priced around $2500 off MSRP, for units in your basic price range.
 
Check it out!
 
regards,

You can get the Invoice and MSRP price right here
 
http://www.edmunds.com/toyota/rav4/2009/index.html
 
  It is accurate and checks out with either Fitzgerald site or 2 other dealers that have sent me offers.
 
  I have been offered invoice at one dealer and $300 below invoice at another.
  You should have no problem getting any model rav today at invoice and prolly up to $300 less.
   Have you not read previous posts ?

They are prolly lying in their invoice. Use Fitzs or Edmonds as mentioned before , and even that may be high. NO one is buying cars.
  My local dealer is offering me $100 under invoice and I have not even started negotiating with him yet.
  Dealers sell at below invoice all the time, and still make money. Read back for the last 3-4 pages ( not 3-4 posts) and see how they work.

I have read ALL the posts. I understand what actual dealer invoice is and the holdback. Many of the posts refer to "estimated price," MSRP, or something else that makes it tricky to understand how well the buyers are doing. As I posted previously, the dealers are printing me their two-page "dealer cost" which ADDS the holdback into the price, plus advertising and other miscellaneous expenses I don't even look at. Then they offer to sell at 3% above the phony cost, or about 5% above true invoice.
 
If you are getting offers to sell to you at below invoice, you're lucky or doing a good job. Fitzmall is offering $300-$400 below invoice on the Limited I am looking for, but out here in Oregon, I am having a difficult time coming within $800 of invoice.

Hi Cyclist_Chick:
 
I hope that you really enjoy the ride and still checking this forum for awhile. I got the spreadsheet ready and came to SM dealer tonight but it did not work out. Therefore, I would like to ask you again:
 
1) T.M.F (Toyota Marketing Fund) ~ $770. I removed this. Did you pay this fee?
2) PIO (Pre Install Option) Holdback? How about this?
3) 2% Holdback MSRP? I assume that this fee was taken out?
4) 1% Finance Fee. You said that this was taken out
5) Destination/Handling fee ~$740. The spreadsheet tells me it's required?
6) What is your Dealer profits %?
 
It would be great if you could list out.
 
They also asked your "last" name or last 4 VIN# & purchase date to match those options above and I was stuck because the manager could find "Chick" on the list? Would you please help. I learned that you were a new buyer but you picked up and close the business so fast. Thanks a bunch.
