Rebates/Incentives/Best Time to Buy by maxxlady

I am planning on buying a Highlander AWD V6 and am trying to decide if I should wait for the '07's or buy now. Right now (until end Jul) there is the $1000 rebate. Do you think the rebate will continue until the new year is released? Generally, do the new year prices stay the same or go up? Do you think it would be advantageous to get an '06 when they are trying to clear them off the lot? I really need to keep my OTD price to 25K.
 
Thanks for your input, Eileen

Eileen:
 
The MSRP of HLs only goes up a small amount each year (a few hundred dollars at most) so this shouldn't be a major issue. I don't know specifically for HLs but in general rebates for cars gradually increase during the model year. For example for the Ford Ranger the rebates gradually increased from $0 to $3000 during the '05 MY, so if you bought near the end of the MY you'd have saved $3000 from what you would have spent if you waited for the beginning of the next MY. I suspect it's the same for the HL and as there are no significant design changes for the '07 HL I'd highly recommend buying now assuming you can find what you want. For the Ranger the rebates have never decreased during the MY so I highly suspect the $1000 rebate will remain in effect in the remaining months for '06 HLs, but of course can't be positive what Toyota will do.
 
To get the best price get internet quotes from several dealerships and then start by visiting the internet department of the dealership with the lowest quote and the dealership you feel best about.
 
24K - 25K before TTL is roughly the best price you can expect to get for a V6 AWD so 25K OTD may be a challenge. Ask for OTD quotes from the internet departments so they don't try to add any surprise fees when you come in; include your address so they can accurately calculate any sales taxes.

In our area the rebate is 1200 through 7/31, although we opted for the financing deal. '07 production starts next week for delivery in October, so stock may dwindle until then.
 
We decided to buy now b/c of the financing, we needed to replace a car and we believe that our excise tax - which is based on model year - will go down more quickly than if we waited for the '07s.
 
Good luck.

Wondered if anyone has any ideas on what the rebates might be for July on the 2WD Highlander?
 
Going back and forth between the HL and Santa Fe. Wondering about end of month, end of quarter deals vs waiting til July and hoping for a larger rebate.
 
Any advice?

The special financing (2.9%) or cashback ($2000) applies only to the 2008 Highlander gas model. There are no incentives available on the '09 model.
