Re: Leasing vs. Toyota Touch Preferred Option [talmy1] by vehicula

 Whomever I spoke with at TFS was wrong.
 
From the Toyota brochure:
 
"At the end of your contract’s original term, you can elect to satisfy your final payment in one of three ways... 3. Return your vehicle to your Toyota dealer. Notify TFS in writing at least 30 days prior to your final payment due date."
 
Called TFS back and said (politely) WTF? No one could explain the practical difference between the Preferred Option and a lease. So I'm no better off than before.
 
But I did get this information: The Preferred Option is only offered in a limited number of states: AK, LA, NM, NJ, NY, RI, MD, CT and possibly one or two others that I can't remember offhand. I'll probably never get my answer but the question is moot, since I live in MA.
 
I'm guessing that it has something to do with variations in state law.
 
I'm not going to argue with you, talmy. If it was available in MA, the Preferred Option would have been less expensive than a standard lease, although not by much.

2008 Camry Hybrid by uncle_eazy

Hi all,
 
I'm not new to leasing (I've leased through Ford and BMW), but I feel the Toyota dealer is trying to take advantage of me. Initially, a '08 Camry Hybrid with the upgrade package was presented to me with a sale price of $25,998. With $2000 down, they said my payments were going to be $443/month. That about blew me backwards out of my chair. I mean, my lease payment on my '06 BMW 325 is only $350! And, of course, this price was only good on the cars they had in stock.
 
They offered me another car that had leather and heated seats and a few other things for around $27,500. With around $3000 down, my payments would be around $390. This still seems incredibly ridiculous. Not a single lease calculator I've been to comes anywhere near this price.
 
Also, they charge a $199 "Doc" fee and wanted a whopping $800 to purchase and install the Sirius brain for the car.
 
Thanks in advance,
Uncle Eazy

XLE Lease details by arm_jan

I helped my dad lease an XLE over the weekend. Here are the details. I did not have enough time to do extensive research so the deal could have been better, but here it is. The car was leased from a Sacramento, CA dealer.
Base XLE with floor mats 36 months 12k
 
Base MSRP: $25660
Floor mats and some other things $199
Actual MSRP: $25859
Cap Cost: $24000
Edmunds Invoice: $22910 without floor mats
They claimed they add advertising fees and their invoice is arround $23500 ($400 over edmunds)
Residual: 15250 (59 %)
MF: .00123
Bank fee: $575
Monthly: $308 + $22 tax = 330.00
 
Drive off was first month + license and doc fees, I think arround $575.
 
I could probably have done better negotiating the selling price. Any comments are welcome.

Okay, i need some rates and residuals on an 08 Hybrid.
 
im not to worried about prices, but i would like to know some rates and residuals.

Went to LONGO TOYOTA TODAY by nacho2

Hello,
I went to lLongo Toyota today and dealt with the fleet mgr, this is the deal that I was offered, please let me know what you think.
2008 Toyota Camry LE MSRP $21,93, $13067 is the residual(60%), with a cap cost of $19734, he say' selling price is $700 back of invoice, he is using a selling price of $19,184. Now with $494 down for 36months, 12k per year, I have a payment that comes out to $248.76 including tax. He also says that gap insurance has to be bought separate. for something like $699. My accord has gap included, do I have to buy it, or can I check with my Allstate Insurance. Also the LE does not have an alarm system. I told him I heard of people getting $19,000 OTD, and even $20.000 OTD from Longo he said no, perhaps it was last month maybe but no that is incorrect. I went next door to Honda because my lease ends tomorrow and I told the lady who works there, she used to work at a Toyota before and said you could get the LE for $200 including tax. Do you think I can get the payment including tax for $220 a month. Thanks in advance for the help, greatly appreciated.

ph yeah, just saw a commercial for a toyota camry 2000 down, 199/mo 36 month 12 k miles a year, didn't catch the dealer, I think it was a Toyota corp commercial. Only thing is that this was for an 08 Camry.
