I know I can get the 84/100k/0 "online" for $880, but I have another opportunity from my dealer. Just was wondering what your thoughts are. I negotiated with my dealer to get LoJack and 84/100k/0 "out the door" for $1500. The trouble is, I am not sure I want LoJack. LoJack lists for $695, and I am not sure what a realistic street price would be. But, if I pay list for LoJack, my extended warranty comes out to: $1500 - $695 = $805 (out the door!). I checked with my insurance company. LoJack will save me $17 a year (I was quite disappointed with this number). Without LoJack, my dealer will not go below $1200 for the warranty. Anyone think LoJack is worth it for this car?

Replying to: hamm3r (Jun 07, 2006 5:25 am) In effect the question you should ask is: 1) is the warranty worth $1200 and 2) Is LoJack worth $300 (not $695) because in effect that is the deal the dealerr is offering, reguardless of how they break it out on paper |

What is Lojac?

"Without LoJack, my dealer will not go below $1200 for the warranty." Did you try another dealer ? If it's a new car you can buy it at a later times . You can't use it during your first 3 years anyway - the new car factory warranty covers you during that time. I plan to buy my Platinum warranty from a dealer in Virginia - $550 . |

See if this link helps: martinf, "Toyota Camry: Prices Paid & Buying Experience" #3018, 14 May 2006 10:24 pm Also message 3314 here: martinf, "Toyota Camry: Prices Paid & Buying Experience" #3314, 6 Jun 2006 10:28 pm I think these 2 posts are very helpful.

Replying to: just1guy (Jun 07, 2006 3:14 pm) Platinum for $550 for what time period? Which dealer? toyotawarranty.com doesn't list the TCH as an option. I am not sure I understand all I know about this yet!

Replying to: bnewins (Jun 08, 2006 7:40 am) I think what it comes down to is that you just need to call around and ask. Every dealer charges differently. And this particular warrenty is backed by Toyota, so you can pretty much buy it from any dealer in the US. As far as the coverage goes, I have no idea how the 8 years is determiend. Maybe you might find more information on Toyota site.

Replying to: bnewins (Jun 08, 2006 7:40 am) This is a true statement. You get 3 years manufacturer warranty with the initial purchase. If you buy an extended 5 year warranty, you get only an additional 2 years. If you buy an extended 7 year warranty, you get only an additional 4 years. Incidentally, I don't think Toyota sells an 8 year, but I know that third party warranty companies do. I personally would not trust a hybrid warranty to a third party. I called one of the the MidWest Superstores Toyota in KS today to inquire about the $520 warranty, but the finance manager was not available and has not called me back.
