#2941 of 3148 Re: On 7/25, fueleconomy.gov changed EPA estimate [ecarbuyer123] by don_michaels Jul 28, 2009 (6:02 am)
Replying to: ecarbuyer123 (Jul 25, 2009 10:28 pm) YES! This happened to my car as well. On 7/11/09, my 1991 Audi 80 Quattro was listed with 18 mpg combined, now it is listed at 19 mpg. I didn't know exactly when it changed, but you saw it change on 7/25/09, so mine apparently changed on the same date. Have you found any other references to these changes? Any other info?   Thanks, Don. Replies to this message: kirstie_h (Jul 28, 2009 7:55 am)

Replying to: don_michaels (Jul 28, 2009 6:02 am) Hi Don, there are several consumers who have had the exact same experience - from 18 MPG prior to the 25th, to exactly 19 MPG on the 25th. You can check it out in our discussion titled Cash for Clunkers - Does it Work for You?

Replying to: greytautumn (Jul 24, 2009 4:48 am) Thank you, this was very helpful. The twenty-two thousand you paid was OTD right? Replies to this message: greytautumn (Jul 29, 2009 6:29 am)

Replying to: cableman2 (Jul 29, 2009 6:19 am) That was the price of the rav itself- Minus trade, Plus 5% tax, + title and transfer of tags ($110) and $250 doc fee.   Base model is fine fo our needs, We'll be ordering Weathertech mats soon. We've got them in our Sienna and love them. Best investment I've ever made in a car accessory.

Replying to: deepseabio (Jul 27, 2009 8:53 am) Okay, finally got the car...   FWD Sport Model 4 cylinder with Leather Premium Package, Back-up Monitor, QX Value Package, and Mats. Sticker was $27,074. Price agreed upon was $24,700 minus the $500 factory rebate = $24,200. This is before any taxes, licensing, ect.   On top of this, we used the CARS rebate. So total OTD was $21.8k or so....   This was about $500 below invoice.   I'm not so sure that good deals are going to stay though, I know the dealer I went to sold 96 cars over the weekend, and 2/3 of them used the CARS rebate. If demand stays high and inventory drops, it will be hard to negotiate a price below invoice. Replies to this message: kenleslie76 (Jul 29, 2009 9:15 pm) deepseabio (Jul 30, 2009 2:57 pm)
#2947 of 3148 Re: 2009 RAV4 Sport 4x4 model 4443 [thearchies] by sirjubjub Jul 29, 2009 (8:15 am)
Replying to: thearchies (Jul 18, 2009 5:15 pm) Veronica,      I just purchased this same SUV here in Kentucky for $26,073 OTD. The dealers like to play there little games with “my manager said this and that” but if you persevere you can get a great deal. If you not in a hurry to purchase the vehicle I would wait until the end of the month or even better the quarter and they will come crawling back to you with a deal of a life time. Good luck and I hope you have a better experience with the car than I did. It’s been in the shop more than it’s been on the road.   Alonzo

Replying to: deepseabio (Jul 29, 2009 8:15 am) Wow....that's a awesome deal you got out from the dealer. Which dealer do you brought from? I know I got mine for $400 under invoice from LONGO. I was consider to get that package similar to your but I changed my mind and ended up with a base with 3rd seat/bluetooth. Let me know which dealer is it. My cousin might be interested this weekend to but one too. Replies to this message: deepseabio (Jul 30, 2009 2:57 pm)
#2949 of 3148 RAV4 prices by alex91 Jul 30, 2009 (9:38 am)
Any advice about RAV4, prices in southwest Missouri? I tried 1600 below sticker but dealer wanted full price which I found quite funny. Thanks

Replying to: kenleslie76 (Jul 29, 2009 9:15 pm) Toyota of Carlsbad...   I did want to let you know that I actually negotiated further down ($700 below invoice) to start with and we had an agreement at that price ($24.5k). This hit my OTD total of $22k. But both the guy I was dealing with and myself got a pleasant surprise about 1/2 way through the transaction ....it turns out that CARS rebate was NOT taxed. This saved us $400 in taxes. Thus, I volunteered to add $200 back into the price of the car and we would split the unexpected savings. I thought this was fair because it still came $200 below my OTD cost.   From then on, I was treated great! I didn't get pressured for any backend items.
