#383 of 407 Re: highlander hybrid limited [womble] by paunch Jun 12, 2009 (12:09 pm)
Replying to: womble (Jun 10, 2009 12:16 pm) I'm in the market as well. I've been told that the money factor offered by Toyota Financial for this month is an extension of the deal they offered last month and it's 0.00042 or 1%. Using your numbers for MSRP, negotiated price, residual and using this MF, I get a monthly that is more like $583+tax so your number seems quite high. Also, you might check carsdirect.com. I plugged in a set of options on a Limited that puts the MSRP up at $45,785 and the price that they offer is $42,823. In my experience, when you get routed to a dealer internet department via this site, they will match that price. If you shop that price, often you can beat it so the opportunity to go even lower exists.   Good luck. Replies to this message: womble (Jun 12, 2009 8:58 pm)

Replying to: paunch (Jun 12, 2009 12:09 pm) thanks, paunch. I've actually leased two other cars through carsdirect.com and had an amazing experience there. I went to the toyota dealership to drive the car but, of course, got the whole sales pitch and its easy to see how people make snap decisions when they just show you they've knocked thousands off sticker. Confused re basic drive off costs though. $800?
#385 of 407 Good lease deal on Highlander Limited FWD? by carbuzz101 Jun 16, 2009 (9:42 am)
I have excellent credit and live in Texas. I like to change my car every 2-3 yrs, but drive a lot of miles. I was told that I should lease... I wanted to know if this is a good deal (offer from private lease company -- see below) or can someone tell me what deal I should expect for credit score of 785? I wasn't able to negotiate this down any further...   New 2009 Highlander Limited FWD Lease Offer Options: Navi pkg (pkg #8), floor and cargo mats, mud guards, wheel locks, window tint MSRP: $38,488 Purchase Price: $35,597 Dealer Invoice: $35,347 Lease for 48mos/60K (cuz of my driving habit) Money Factor: 6.84% (I think this is high) Residual Value of $11,670 First payment of $728 ($728/mo lease)   Note: I plugged in the numbers provided to me with Acq fee of $795, Doc fee $50, Title fee of $180, I didn't get the $728 pmt quoted by the lease agent (it was roughly $700).   I keep on hearing that we shouldn't put money down on a lease. However, I can get a 2.99% balance transfer rate until paid off with my credit card with a maximum transfer fee of $100. Note: I have an excellent credit and pay my bill on time. Should I consider this option as a down payment (it looks like I will save on finance charge)? If so, how much should I put down. Replies to this message: houston_man (Jun 27, 2009 11:00 am)

Replying to: wease944 (Jun 26, 2009 2:43 pm) Which dealer quoted you this deal? I am looking for the same vehicle (also in northern NJ) and am beginning to hate all Toyota dealers in the area....   If you landed this deal in the mid 400s please let me know.   Thanks
#390 of 407 Lease End Questions by brentp Jul 20, 2009 (11:48 am)
Lease is up next month on a 2006 Highlander. I think the car is clean (few chips, scratches less than an inch, etc.) and will be under the allowed mileage. That said, this is my first lease and we will be turning it back in to Toyota - no replacement.   Does Toyota publish what is considered "normal" for wear and tear?   What are your experiences with returning a lease through TFS - are they reasonable? Just don't want to be surprised in a few weeks after the inspection to find they want big bucks. If it helps, we live in the New England area.   Besides pre-return photos - any other tips for lease returns?   Return to any Toyota dealer - or is there a benefit to returning it to the original dealer (80 miles away)? I have gotten different opinions on this. Replies to this message: Car_man (Aug 13, 2009 2:27 am)
#391 of 407 carman- current m/f & resid pls on highlander ltd by a64marc Jul 28, 2009 (3:50 pm)
carman: wondering if you can tell me current m/f and resid. for   current highlander ltd (fwd) 3 years 12k miles per year   I had thought it was .0007 and the resid should be above 45% (but I have a jerky socal dealer telling me it's 38%) loaded with just the nav/mnrf pkg and msrp'ing at 37,779 what would be a decent sales price to you in So California?   and rather than post a separate message could you also tell me what it is for the mazda cx-9 grand touring fwd same miles and years w/nav and mnrf as well   big thanks Replies to this message: Car_man (Aug 13, 2009 2:36 am)
