Bought a V6 FWD with Convenient Package and Premium Package 2 for around $33,800. Excellent service before and after buying the car. http://lustinetoyota.com/Results.asp?xmake=Toyota&NewUsed=0&Make=1&selModel=Venz- a They got this Auto4Life program as standard http://www.lustinetoyota.com/displayContent.asp?keywords=auto4life Drove the Venza from Washington DC to Chesapeake VA and back. Caught in the middle of a snowstorm on the way back. No need for AWD, FWD handled the snow very well. I read about the stiffness in suspension. I don't feel it at all. Car got Michelin tires. Get the Voice Activated Navigation. Great sound system. Overall, it it a great car. Got people along the road giving me thumbs up! |

Bottom line--very pleased. I went cheap. V-6 in blizzard pearl, conv package and bumper protector, wheel locks, all weather mats, cargo net, splash guards and front window tint and mat package. MSRP was $30,450. Paid $27,500. I drove a 4 cyl highlander to test the engine. The 4 is powerful but not refined after driving the V-6. So no 4 cyl venza coming my way.. My guess is that real world gas savings will be 1-2 despite EPA estimates. We got 27.7 mpg on 100 mile trip home at 68 mph or so. Regular gas is a plus. Was surprise satellite radio standard even on non navi and non JBL model. Nice surprise.

Replying to: soonercat (Mar 04, 2009 10:01 am) Congrats. I may get the V-6 as well if the mileage spread is this small. What I'm really curious about is if the V-6 may even get better mileage than the I-4 at higher speeds like 75 (or even 80).

Consumer reports noted how the V-6 vs the inline 4 was so close on the RAV4 that if you have $1600 buy the V-6. Maybe Venza four will be civilized better...

Replying to: xualum (Feb 27, 2009 11:00 am) Because it's used there wouldn't be the normal dealer up charges, i.e., TTL and Prep fees, $32,499 would be it. MSRP was $38,444, that's a savings of $5,945 off MSRP and NO TTL and Prep fees. If I hadn't already bought one 2 weeks ago, I'd be on this one like a Duck on a June Bug even if I had to make a trip to NJ. If anyone buys it please post to the forum. Thanks, Gabill
