Replying to: toyotaslast (Apr 20, 2009 2:37 pm) I ordered my FWD V6 Venza and got about $3500 of MSRP. I'm also elegible for any incentives that come out when the car is delivered. It helped that I shopped around and talked to Fitzmall and Carmax so I was able to bring those prices to the table. Just got a note from my dealer that the car I ordered on March 13th will be built in early May and should arrive about the 3rd week of May. Yea!

Replying to: toyotaslast (Apr 20, 2009 2:37 pm) I started with figuring out the car of our dreams and then used this site (Edmonds) and this site: http://www.carbuyingtips.com/ to help me come up with a true INVOICE price. I drove a few Venzas in the meantime trying to figure out which powertrain we wanted and then went and talked/negotiated with the dealer for price. This is the post (#170) from the "prices paid" I made a few weeks ago: "In the works soon... A RED with grey leather, FWD V6, Premium #2, Pano Roof, JBL Audio, Mats and Bumper protector for $32,400. From a very nice Kitsap County, WA dealer. Now the wait!! THIS will be the tough part.." My thought (flawed??) is that a dealer would LOVE to SELL a car, on the lot or not AND if the car never sits on the lot, they never pay Toyota to "rent" it in the interim - sounds like profit to me... Best of luck to you...

Replying to: toyotaslast (Apr 20, 2009 2:37 pm) We just placed the following order, 4cyl, FWD plus, JBL Premium Audio (EJ) Convenience Package (CQ) Security Package (SA) Floor/Cargo Mats   Price was $26,500, plus $100 dealer fee, plus TTL   We were happy with this price especially for a built to order vehicle, although I am sure you can do better. We live in MD and so the Fitzmall prices set the mark in this area. Of course that means you get a good price but it also sets a floor for the price in this area, it is hard work to do much better. In the end the comparison to Fitzmall was $26127 for the same car without the Security package and Edmunds lists the Security package at $460 invoice and $570 MSRP. That puts us just above invoice on a built to order car, so we got a reasonable price and the car we wanted and the dealer gets their holdback plus a few bucks. Of course now we just have to wait!

Replying to: toyotaslast (Apr 20, 2009 2:37 pm) The dealer in Missouri that I am working with pulled up the Edmunds TMV tool, looked what the TMV price was and said he would match it. It is above invoice, but about $2000 below MSRP. It may not be the best deal since I did not take a Venza off the lot, but I am happy with it. He also said that if any incentives came out while I was waiting to take delivery of the car, I would be eligible to take advantage of them. Same with my trade in, I am trading an 07' Camry Hybrid in, and he said if gas prices jump before the car is delivered and the value increases they will give me more on the trade too (the based the trade on Kelly Blue Book). Hope that helps!

Replying to: qs933 (Apr 18, 2009 9:51 pm) Sorry, but nobody, at least I myself, didn't say anything about a private discussion, but I was addressing someone else with my question, that's why I replied rather than posted a separate entry. No harm done in either case. Maybe one of these days I'll figure out how these forums are supposed to work!   To your other comment, I consider the Murano very ugly. Actually, these days I'm more interested in the Hyundai Elantra Touring wagon/hatchback/whatever. It's very nice looking, outside of the awful color choices, and I hope to actually sit in one soon to see whether it sits too low for me or not.   Thanks for the advice, though.
#971 of 1078 Venza Seat Comfort - Question for Current Owners by md_outback Apr 24, 2009 (9:44 am)
Hey Venza Owners, I just completed a 30 minute test drive in a V6-AWD Venza and was quite impressed. I think my only concern is with driver seat comfort: It wasn't bad but it almost seemed like the seat cushion padding was kind of thin. I'm pretty slim myself without much "built-in" butt padding, so I would like to hear of your experiences when taking long trips - does the seat remain comfortable after a couple hours of driving? Thanks in advance for your replies.   MD Replies to this message: normvenza09 (Apr 24, 2009 9:52 am) liners (Apr 24, 2009 9:54 am) deepsouth (Apr 24, 2009 2:11 pm) md_outback (Apr 24, 2009 4:03 pm) and 1 more...

Replying to: md_outback (Apr 24, 2009 9:44 am) Already made five 4 hours long trip from Washington DC to Virginia beach and back without discomfort. If you adjust the seats ergonomically like the height, the back, distance to the steering wheel and lumbar support, you should be fine.
