#252 of 3148 Re: Pricing for RAV4 - WA state [yoyodk] by cynthia8 Feb 27, 2006 (6:29 pm)
Replying to: yoyodk (Feb 26, 2006 8:52 pm) I purchased from Rodman Toyota in Everett. The best in-person experiences were Rodman and Lake City (in-person). The best Internet experiences were Michael's (Bellevue) and Toyota of Puyallup. Rodman, Michael's and Toyota of Puyallup were willing to deal and were really the only ones I negotiated with.   I also test drove at Michaels but they are a volume dealer and have a huge bull-pen of aggressive sales guys. I would buy from the Internet Sales guy but not in-person. The guy at Bob Bridge where I also test drove lied about a couple of things (like being able to order a manual transmission) and started negotiating in the middle of the test drive after I said I was only looking.   Burien, Downtown Toyota and Kirkland seemed to have the highest prices. After telling him EXACTLY what I wanted, the guy at Downtown Toyota kept coming back with the wrong configuration and would I be interested.   The salesman at Rodman told me that the area dealers were becoming more flexible on price (up to a point). If I kept the game going a little more between the 3 dealers, I might have gotten a few more dollars off but I was tired of the whole process.   Hope this helps!

Replying to: cynthia8 (Feb 27, 2006 6:29 pm) Thanks, much obliged for the great information. Too bad about Bob Bridge because they are the closest to me, but this isn't the first time I've heard about them and their hard sells. I didn't even know about Rodman so I'll definitely keep them in mind when I'm ready to buy. Replies to this message: jimd4 (Mar 02, 2006 9:21 am)

Replying to: yoyodk (Feb 27, 2006 8:42 pm) I was offered a RAV4 V6 Sport or Limited V6 that were on the dealer's lot last week in NY for $500 over invoice after some discussion starting with $500 under MSRP.   The Sport did not have the curtain airbags which apparently not comeing to NY. Both cars were otherwise loaded except for no DVD, leather and 3rd seat on Limited. My dealer has a i4 limited that has been sitting there for a month now.

Midwest Toyota in Hutchinson, KS sold me a V6 limited 4x4 w/ a 3rd row seat for $500 over invoice plus the Toyota Dealer Advertising fee of $425. It'll take 10 weeks to come in. Looks like Fitzmall doesn't pass along the TDA, but from previous posts, it sounds like it's a legitimate charge.   They were very good to deal w/--also gave me a very fair price on my trade-in.
