| I'm thinking about leasing a manual tc, no options added. What am I looking at in terms of monthly payments with roughly $2,000 down? Credit score 710. | |

Hi all, I got my new Scion TC last month and I love it as much as you all do. I was talking to my Dealer(Service tech) today about this auto doorlocking system which is the most common feature even in the basic cars and which is not in Scion TC. I mean when we shift the gear, the doors should get locked automatically right!!! which does not happen with TC which I am not able to digest. Is it really true or do we need to do something to get it activated? Thanks. |

This will insure that you are really interested in going further... after that go to any car shopping web site like hmmm edmunds.com and proceed with new purchase. 1) build your dream 2) add the options 3) send the info to your local dealers, I recommend also to use a different zip code to further your search especially if you are in a big city. After that you'll start to get emails from dealers. It does help if you're starting your search near a holiday or the middle of the month. I think this is due to the fact that most dealers see 2 weeks of exchanges before deals finally drop. Let them know that you are serious and will be purchasing within the 2 week window and you do want to begin a long lasting relationship with them. Being that Scions are "Value Pricing" let this work to your fav. Tell the internet sales guy you're working with that if "VP" is at all the dealers, then there is NO reason for you to go out of the way to buy it from him and you'll just buy it from the closest dealer or someone that will provide you some "incentive"! Really, its the same old BS when negotiating any deal... Don't forget, make sure that you reinforce that you are ultimately wanting to establish a great dealership relationship as you'll be "Needing" service down the road. My deal... 2K off MSRP. So a little additional info to what happened for me. My guy initially said that I'd be able to get 2k off any tC. When he provided me 3 choices of tC's and their options, he came back with discounts of 800, 1600 and 1900. I told him that I was very disappointed.  If that was what this dealer does, bait and switch, we are done. He did come back with the actual 2K off that I wanted  Guys hold your ground... and good luck!

Tell them what you want and follow what I've posted prior. It will work. Especially now, end of the month, and money is hard to come by for the dealers good luck! |
