I don't know what level 3 package is. Mine is package 2 in US, which included everything plus subwoofer. I consider it is a win-win deal if you can strike a deal $3,000 below the MSRP as an invoice price.

Got this offer from Universal Toyota yesterday- I am still a week or so from buying, so I didn't haggle as much as I normally do
 
Auto 4x4, Upgrade#2, Cnvc pckg, curtain airbags, applique, XM, lusterizer, tint...MSRP 33177, they quoted 32,000. I figure I can do a lot better, and with 6 Toyota dealers within 30 miles, I am going to shop around.

Definitely shop around. The MSRP with the factory options you listed is less than $30,000. All that other stuff (applique, lusterizer, tint) is dealer-installed profit margin.
 
The MSRP on your vehicle is not $33,177. That's probably a total price with dealer addendum sticker, not the MSRP.

Toyota of Richardson - special order Fleet Sales. Sweet and painless. It was all done in 30 minutes.
 
Black Cherry 4wd auto, Convenience, Upgrade #2 (no sub), side curtain ABs, roof rack, rock rails, towing, skid plate, arm rest, tire cover, rubber mats, and the lusterizing pkg. MSRP 31984~ ordered for 29,024 which was supposed to be 200 over invoice. I'm almost happy. Happy is when it gets here!

Black Diamond.. 4x4. ..6m.. Convenience Package and Upgrade Package.. and some other misc. accessories.. MSRP - 29,514.. got the dealer down to 26,486... plus getting the KBB 'Excellent' value on my trade in... does this sound like a good deal.. the 26,486 is almost 2k below edmunds TMV so my initial thoughts were that this is pretty good..any inputs would be appreciated..
 
thanks a lot!

My sister recently bought her FJ Cruiser at up in North Cal. for $27K out the door. At the time, the vehicle didn't have running boards...only the rock rail (which she didn't need). We asked the dealer if they would exchange it for a pair of running boards. The dealer wanted to charge us $1K for the dealer added on!!! What a scam! We bought the FJ and bought an aftermarket running boards instead. Now, her FJ is completely accessorized.
 
If anyone need after market running boards, don't bother going to the dealer. They will scam you.
 
I found these boards on the internet...

finally someone that knows how to buy a new car.... everyone paying 30,000 is crazy..... the sticker on the window is what the dealership placed. go to consumerreports and purchased the new car buying kit.... then go to edmunds and get a rough idea. you have to know the true cost of the fj to the dealership then contact the dealerships through the internet departments... it seems that this car is hot and they are just simply pushing the price up just like when the mazda miata came out..
if ready to purchase, contact dealerships 4 days before the end of the month and if you go inside... take print outs of the true cost for dealerships to get the car in their lots .... dont simply run in and accept 30k otd...........thats not what this car is worth or what everyone should be paying for.. good luck.

the FJ should be selling around 23,000 for the fully loaded package. these dealerships are asking for 28,000.. saw a yellow one in santa ana mall today for 24k .... i am going to check it out tonight to see what is the deal. no matter what you are planning to buy... wait untill the last 4 days of the month before you get into it......good luck..

ok the truck sale numbers for june are out. -25% combined for the FJ 4RUNNER AND SEQU. maybe now these dealers will settle down on the FJ prices and actually be consumer oriented and match the actual price they should be selling these trucks. good luck.

What dealer did your sister go to - I'm in North Cal and most won't budge under 29500 out the door!
