#736 of 781 Re: 09 Corolla rebate/incentive? [marxsd] by mcdawgg Sep 23, 2009 (7:43 pm)
Replying to: marxsd (Sep 23, 2009 6:37 pm) No one knows until it happens. Toyota corporate keeps this info secret until the day the new incentives start.   I have heard that some dealers will give you whatever is better if you are going to pick-up the car on the Monday the new incentive starts, in this case 10/5. I don't know for a fact that this is true, but I do know that the dealers don't know until it happens. The $1,500 sounds good to me, even though the 2010s are out, but I'd still see if you can get the dealer to go really low on their price due to the old model year car you are considering.

#742 of 781 2010 LE for OTD 17200 is it great deal? by tory77 Oct 01, 2009 (8:45 am)
I'm in indianapolis area and I got a deal 2010 Corolla LE for 17200 (OTD). It includes my college graduate rebate 1000. So without the rebate it would be 18200. The car I made a deal has cruise and 6 cd changer but not floor mats and other things. Should I go for it or is it bad deal?

I have only been negotiating with two dealers over email, and i play them off against eachother to see who is going to go lower than the other. It is a buyers market right now, they are desperate, you should be able to get them to go down to at least 16,000. i know a lady whos deal started at 17,559 and she got them down to 13,999!!! Im hoping i can get down to at least 14,999. you just gotta keep haggling them to go lower, to them, some money is better than no sale at all so if they just wont budge, just say that another dealer you know is going down (say 500) less than them so you are going to go there if they cant go any lower. even if its not true, they dont know that and they arnt going to want to lose your sale. hope that helps, just be confident, dont let them screw u over. the features you are getting are fine though cuz they come standard but they should be able to go lower if they really want the sale.   Amy Replies to this message: corollafan2 (Oct 13, 2009 12:35 pm) hhjane (Oct 15, 2009 7:33 am)
#744 of 781 2010 Corolla LE vs. Corolla S by corollafan2 Oct 09, 2009 (10:25 pm)
I am set to purchase Corolla within a month. I am looking for feedback in a couple of areas such as:   How effective is submitting online quote requests to several dealerships in terms of price? Does online shopping produce their "final" answer or must one still negotiate a price? I am curious if some dealerships are aggressive and see this as an opportunity to reap some rather quick and easy sale potential via this route.   I live north of Boston, MA. I am trying to decide between a 2010 LE with MSRP of $17,950 and Corolla S MSRP $18,705. My best online deal to date for LE is $16,157. Corolla S $16,837...   Then, I got a little full of myself and decided to include a sunroof. LE model had an increased MSRP of $18,840 and price at $16,878 with sunroof. Well, that inspired me to really consider splurging for heated leather seats. I realize they are installed after market, and want feed back from anyone who has gone that route. Was it worth it and did any problems occur given it is an after market item.   I would appreciate feed back on my quote for LE at $16,157 since that was my original comfort level and best price quoted. If possible, can some one out there guide me in terms of negotiating for sun roof and/or heated seat option and how much extra I should pay for these options based on the LE quote of $16,157 for a very nice car, but no fun stuff included ie. sun roof or heated seats ??   Finally, what is the verdict for 2010: A Corolla LE or Corolla S ??   Best # for Corolla S MSRP of $19,595 which includes options CF,CK,FE,QC,SR is $17,732. Quote from another local dealership for a loaded 2010 Corolla LE w/ Moonroof MSRP: 18,840 including adding leather heated seats option was $19,081 That sounded expensive to me and brought me back to reality.   I am hesitatant on S model since 16 inch tires translate to higher expense down the road in terms of replacing. Should I let the 15 vs. 16 inch tire dictate my final decision? Thanks!! I keep my cars 7-10 years so I end up replacing tires three times at least..

Replying to: corollafan2 (Oct 09, 2009 10:25 pm) Online quote requests through Edmunds are quite effective in getting you in touch with the Internet Sales Manager at local dealerships. You can decide which dealers to get the quotes from and work with them via e-mail and phone. I have done this with 2 recent car purchases. You still have to negotiate the price but it is a lot easier doing it on your terms from your home or office than going to the dealership and having them manipulate you. Make sure that you don't get any Salesman involved in the negotiations; otherwise, his commission will have to be added to the price of the car.   I leased a 2010 Corolla S a few weeks ago and am happy with it so far. My son wanted manual transmission and leather which is an odd combination and was very difficult to find. For this reason, we could not negotiate a lot on the price but we were able to take advantage of the special lease rate with a MF of 0.00038. I posted the deal in a previous message.   I would recommend going with the Corolla S vs the LE. The S has better looks, nice rims, better handling, and larger tires. The price difference between the 16 inch vs 15 inch tires will not be significant.
