Replying to: md_outback (Feb 11, 2009 1:40 pm) Thanks to all the posts, I know to ask for Michelin tires and not accept the Goodyears. I've got Michelins now on my HL and they lasted over 50K miles. |

Once I discoverd the Venza back in December I sought a forum that had real life buying stories and this is it. I too have contacted several of the dealers mentioned through out the forum plus a half dozen more in and around the Atlanta area (home). I must admit that the Maryland dealers; #1 Fitzmall and #2 Laurel Carmax seamed to have the best prices by checking the web and calling them. In my case I was looking for a 2812 (2WD), Fitzmall is loaded with 2822's (AWD) which I don't need in the south. Laural #2 has a good mix of 2812's. I was just about to close a deal until I contacted my local dealer once again; Toyota Mall of Gerogia to force a deal or walk away. They like many dealers have had cars sitting for awhile. Dealers are ready to move stock especially if they know it's do or die for them. Here's the deal I made Saturday which beat Laurel's price. . Model 2812 (2WD) . LX - Prem Pkg 2 . NV - Voice Nav Pkg . SR - Pano Roof . TO - Towing Pkg . XY7 - Toyoguard . PV50 - Prem Mat set MSRP was $37,798, I got it for $33,606, thats $4,192 off MSRP or 11%. I was really shocked, I simply told them they have to meet or beat out of state dealer prices or the game is over. Hope this tip is helpful to others.

After over a year of looking (starting around the time when the 2008 Highlander was released), I completed my search. I picked up my Venza V6 AWD with Premium Package #1 and JBL Synthesis audio yesterday. I also added a reverse sensing system (Echomaster) and some accessories (wheel locks, carpet mats, rear bumper protector). It's Magnetic Grey with Ivory interior. I'm very happy that I went with the Ivory interior -- it contrasts nicely with the grey exterior. I paid approximately $2.8K under an MSRP of just over $35K (with accessories, but before tax, title, etc.). I'm in Honolulu, Hawaii, but purchased from a dealer on another island. Over the year and a half, my "decision" went from Highlander to 2009 Murano to Highlander Hybrid, and finally to Venza. All of these are great vehicles. It really does depend on your needs and wants and how each of these choices stack up against them. |

Replying to: gabill (Feb 16, 2009 9:09 pm) I'm from the metro ATL area - and we're ready to negotiate on a Venza. Trying to decide if it's worth waiting for the 4 cyl. Did you price include GA tax? Thanks

Once again I am forced to buy out of state to avoid the useless Gulf States Toyota add ons found in OK, LA, TX, AR. A nice leather, JBL, Conv pack, Venza FWD for $32700 MSRP easily lists for $35,200 in OK. You get remote start, paint sealant and the list goes on. Or drive 100 miles and get one in MO for $30,000 even after a $2700 discount. This makes no sense to me.
