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.

Replying to: xualum (Feb 23, 2009 10:47 am) I thought about waiting for the 4 cyl but weighed in these factors vs the 6 cyl; > The new I4 is already available in the Highlander which I heard was underpowered for the larger vehicle. I also understand the Venza is heaver than the Highlander, although I didn't verify the weight. If it's true, then the I4 could be underpowered on the Venza as well. > The V6 has been in the Toyota family  for a few years and has good reviews, especially in the Avalon. > I4 is new, which scared me a little. Keep in mind the MPG difference between the two engines is 1 MPG different. > I plan on using the towing option, therefore the V6 makes the most since. We've had the vehicle for almost 2 weeks now and love it. Took it up to the mountains over the weekend and put it on some 40 +/- degree inclines and this thing pulled great. Check with Fitzmall again, I got a call from them yesterday, they are now pricing Venza's at $269 below invoice. Old price was $400 above invoice. They are going to be hard to beat. Good luck!

Replying to: gabill (Feb 26, 2009 6:58 pm) You make excellent points about the 4 cyl vs. 6 cyl. I've been thinking about the weight of the vehicle as well, and another point is the 1 mpg difference. We're trying to decide if it's worth it to wait it out and test drive the 4 cylinder. One dealer may have one by late next week. (here in metro ATL) On the other hand, I'm hoping that they're ready to make some decent deals this weekend, being the end of the month and all. Thank you so much for your advice. I'll look into Fitzmall. I did check in with Car Max in MD - just asking a few questions, etc. It's great to hear that you're enjoying your new Venza. I test drove it last weekend, and I like what I'm seeing.

Hello Folks, Just purchased a brand new 2009 V6 AWD Venza from Darcars Toyota of Silver Spring for $33489 plus TTL. The MSRP was 37K odd and dealer claimed invoice was 33,889. It may not be a great deal but I am glad that my search is over. This car drives like a tank. Very study and stable. I liked the options inside and it is very easy to get in and out of the car. I was replacing a Lexus RX330 and this was a OK compromise as it was a little cheaper. The only thing I missed was the moon roof and seat memory. I did buy the extended warranty for 875 for 8 years and 100,000 miles. The finance guy offered me a platinum protection plan for 1600 and when I said I don;t want it he reduced the price to 875. Note I am sure you all will be able to negotiate this as well if needed. I may have done better if I had searched and done my home work. But I needed to replace my car quick and I had actually not considered this car before seeing it in the show room. Thanks PSP |
