From Toyota's site, you cannot buy a base Venza V6. To get the V6, Toyota requires you to also purchase one of three option packages which start at $4050.00. Does Toyota really want to sell the V6 version?

Price: not knowing exact options/accessories $36k looks like MSRP. If this is true, how much negotiating happened? With this economy, both dealers and auto mfg's are over a barrel. Sales are down double digits even for Toyota and Honda. Dealers are going bankrupt. Honda just pulled out of Formula One Racing due to auto sales. I think a a below MSRP deal is possible even with a new car like the Venza. Besides, there many other cars in the $36k range.

It is approximately $2,200 off of MSRP. It is model number 2822 + LX, PC, NV, & SR. Unfortunately Toyota doesnt have any lease programs on the Venza's so the money factor converts to an interest rate of about 6.9%. While my intent was not to buy, I figured with a 5.1% loan and as long as the down payment is doable, I decided to buy instead. We also get the 1/4 point deduction coming off of a current Toyota Financial loan (encore ?)
 
It is a tough decision on paper, you can get a Highlander that MSRP's for 5K more for the same "price" since they are being discounted. However, the two vehicles drive and handle so differently and we couldnt go back to the Highlander once we drove the Venza. Now we wait for delivery....

Hi Folks, can someone tell me which is Model code # 2822? I am assuming that it is the V6 AWD. Thanks.

"Unfortunately Toyota doesnt have any lease programs on the Venza's so the money factor converts to an interest rate of about 6.9%."
 
Could you please explain what you meant by the above sentence while Toyota has an option on their Venza website for leases? Thanks.

Not sure what these are :model number 2822 + LX, PC, NV, & SR.
V6 AWD + DVD Nav + Package #2 = $36,905 MSRP.
 
Does it include Rear Entertainment or Panoramic Glass Roof?

So I will do my best to answer these questions but I can only base off my order form. I believe model 2822 translates into V6 and AWD. LX is the name of the Premium package #2, PC is the pearl paint, NV, is nav, and SR is the panoramic roof.
 
Regarding my comment on no lease programs, by that I meant there are no special subsidized lease programs like there are on other Toyotas so the money factor is much higher than others (normal rates).

Purchased Venza by macpro

My wife and I purchased a Venza earlier tonight. We bought a V6 AWD Magnetic Gray Metallic fully loaded minus the rear entertainment center. The MSRP was $38,444 and we paid $35,288 (plus title and registration. no tax paid, since we had a trade).
 
Only had it for an evening, but will write a review over the weekend. We really love it!

Where did you purchase the AWD model? We are in Northern California. They say they won't have an AWD model out here until mid-January.

We purchased it from CarMax in Kenosha, WI They are an authorized Toyota dealership. After going to just about every other Toyota dealership and only getting about $500.00 - $1,000 off MSRP, someone suggested going there. They have one price, so there is no negotiating, which in this case, worked out well since they were $3,100 under MSRP.
 
We know if we waited a couple months we could have done better, but we needed a car for the winter and the Venza is everything we were looking for - AWD, Toyota quality, in the mid 30's, nice interior and exterior (in our opinion).
