This is going to be the hottest car on the market!!!!

Test drove i4 by toyotaslast

I just test drove the i4, and im a little surprized after reading some reviews, that this was an excellent experince. It was smooth and very powerful for a i4. The engine noise was what i would say normal. I will be getting mine soon, i can't wait. I'm looking to get about 10% off the MSRP, is that about right?

The best way is to compare apples to apples and OTD price.

Does anyone have a sense of dealers willing to deal more on the 4 cyl now that it's been out a while ?

I am being offered a Venza with 3000 miles on it for the same price of a new one $31,500. The most they would take off of the price is 300....10 cents a mile! Does this sound like a good deal? New Orleans, LA

I put a deposit on a new Venza but lo and behold when the car was set for delivery I was notified that it had 3,000 miles on it and they would only go down $300 for the demo that I was set to buy. Does that sound fair to you?

Dixiejill,
The current Federal Tax deduction on milage is $.50 per mile.
I would accept nothing LESS than that deduction FROM the best price you had negotiated for a NEW version.
I would offer $2000 less than your negotiated price as you are offering to buy, in effect, a USED Venza, albeit, slightly so.
Also, keep in mind that I'll bet that this auto was not properly "broken in" if it was a demo, with lotso "lets see what'll do" on many freeway on-ramps...
Cautious is how I would proceed.
Best of Luck.

The tax deduction is supposed to encompass all costs of driving the car.. Depreciation, finance, fuel, insurance, maintenance, etc.. If that is the discount you want for demo mileage, then you might as well give it up, as that will never happen..
 
Heck... if that were the case, I'd look for a demo with 50K miles... At $0.50 per mile, I'd get the car for free!
 
When you lease a car, the penalty for going over your mileage allowance is usually $0.15-$0.20 per mile... You'll do well to get that. If that isn't enough, then a demo probably isn't for you. (It usually doesn't work for me, either.. )
 
regards,
kyfdx

Rather than worrying about the deduction rate of mileage, I would be way more concerned that you put a deposit down on what should be a new vehicle. Isn't that the real issue here?
 
Or is your dealer trying to offer you a lower-cost alternative to the new Venza that you were going to purchase? In that case, it's totally up to you to decide what's fair. Imagine you were trading in a Venza with 3,000 miles -- I can guarantee that the dealer would consider it a used vehicle with much more than $300 worth of depreciation.

What do you think? by uhuhbigfan

Two different cars and there is a difference in their options. Let me know which you think is the better deal. Color (Black), 4 cyl., FWD.
 
Option A- Has tan cloth seats that are going to have leather put on them after market. The car has the comfort and covenience package. I believe with this option, because the leather is after market the front passenger seat is not power or heated. MSRP is 28,944, leather, taxes, title, doc fee, processing take price to 30343. Offered to us out the door at 28000.
 
Option B- Same vehicle except leather comes with this so passenger seat is power and heated. MSRP is 30039. Dealer claimed to give invoice pricing of 27318, then add doc fee of 250 title 25.50 and tax of 2136.52 giving an OTD price of 29730.02.
 
Are these good deals? Which one would you pick? We negotiated with A pretty heavily. B we didn't really negotiate too much with. Any help would be appreciated.
