Replying to: wayside1 (Dec 02, 2008 6:26 pm) Do you get a loan or pay cash? If you get a loan, what is your APR?

Replying to: Thinkinghard (Dec 03, 2008 11:29 am) I paid cash. Toyota is not running any financing deals on the 2009 RAV4s at the moment. I saw your post on what you are looking for, and I looked on FitzMall. Based on the MSRP's that are shown, all of them have some options installed. All of the ones with MSRP of $23964 are just like mine - QV package and floor mats, and they are showing either$21703 or $21892 for the price (all with invoice price of $22261 - don't know where that comes from, it doesn't match what is on Edmunds ($21818), unless it includes the advertising charge, which Edmunds doesn't give). If you really want a stripped down one I think you might have trouble, I don't think dealers typically order them that way. Also, the invoice price of $20839 you mentioned in your post doesn't include shipping, which for me was $745, bringing the actual invoice price to $21584. To get one for under $21000 would be a really good deal. |

Replying to: wayside1 (Dec 03, 2008 12:37 pm) Thanks a lot for your advice. I did omit the destination charge at Edmunds' price.When I include QV and destination fees, the invoice price is $21692. ( I am at NH). It seems only '08 Rav4 may have good APR. Is there any design difference between '08 and 09 Rav4?

Replying to: Thinkinghard (Dec 03, 2008 7:51 pm) From the Edmunds 2009 RAV4 review: "What's New for 2009 A more powerful four-cylinder engine, a restyled grille and bumpers and the adoption of active headrests for the front seats mark the changes for the 2009 Toyota RAV4." I think the problem with an '08 at this point is that, unless you are going to keep it forever, you get nailed for an extra year of depreciation when you sell it. In three years it will be a four year old car, and no one will care that you bought it December 08 so it is really only 3 years old. If you are in southern NH, you could try expanding your search into MA. All the dealers around me (Framingham area) seemed to be right around invoice (as reported by Edmunds) or a little under.

Replying to: wayside1 (Dec 03, 2008 8:20 pm) I do appreciate your advice! My searching scope covers MA because there are not many dealers in NH. Thanks again!

Replying to: mazda626atx (Dec 04, 2008 7:57 am)  EVP (extra value package) is just one of the ways that some sites refer to QY or QZ. The QY is the one I got (no navi). I'm really not impressed with the JBL radio and kind of wish I had gone for the nav package instead, except that I really like having the Bluetooth on the steering wheel. I don't know if the BC is worth the money, but most of the ones I've seen with QY or QZ have had BC and TO on them already. Good luck with your search!

Replying to: ramarulram (Dec 04, 2008 3:51 pm) Simply put ,anything near the Fitzmall comparable auto price (up to $150 more) is a fair price. Find out what TTLD should be in your region. Simple enough Good Luck
