Interesting thoughts! I guess it remains to be seen, then what with all the layoffs, whether potential buyers and the market will continue to bear a $30K+ car or not. Happy driving!

Excellent! Well done! Making them sell below $30K is great. Still costs too much, but well below what they wanted for it. This will make the fleet or program car prices very reasonable. This is where a broker's services would be invaluable, for those potential buyers who don't want to play games.

Thanks for all post of prices, great to have knowledge to go into battle. Since we are costco members, going through auto program, just starting to get into choices of packages before I can strike deal..Dealer must show 1.Member only price sheet.
2.MSRP. 3. Manufacturer's invoice.
My question to owners of Venza, Options. Package #2
Is it worth the extra charge? I do have to have leather, but the camera, sound system and etc.?
 
thanks again. Customer with a mission. Totalied my honda accord last week, so also without car..cracked 2 ribs..so not in any hurry. On my knees with thanksgiving to God.

Package 1 gives me everything I want & need, including leather & the bu camera.
Initially thought the camera was a little bit of a gimick; but after driving a Venza & seeing what it does for rear vision & safety I won't buy a car without it.

I agree I would not by another vehicle if it didn't offer a rear camera.
 
We purchased our Venza about two months ago and are really loving it!

The back up cameras are a necessity but only because most SUVs, and many cars, today have terrible rear vision and dangerous blind spots.

Antioch Toyota by venomshot629

For anyone who lives in the Bay area of California, I would HIGHLY recommend buying from Antioch Toyota:
 
http://www.antiochtoyota.com/special.cfm?ID=152&P=Map|/|Directions
 
I just bought my Venza from them yesterday, and the whole process was just flawlessly smooth... From start to finish, they were the ones who were able to get me the lowest price (as I stated before, $73 over invoice), and the salesperson and finance person I worked with didn't pressure me at all... They were friendly and informative, and laid the options all out on the table. If I said I didn't want something, that was that.
 
 I told them when I was coming in to buy the car, and when I got there all of the paperwork on their end was already done, all I had to do was inspect the car and sign my name on the lines. The whole process took just about 45 minutes, would have only taken 30 if I opted to not let them teach me a few cool things about the car and sync my phone via bluetooth, but that was helpful as well.
 
As far as discounts, I got the initial discount of $3,458 off of retail price, + an extra $100 discount for paying in all cash, + discounts on the maintenance and extended warranty since this is the first model of the Venza... basically a discount for being the first to take that leap and try something new.
 
If you are interested in buying a Venza (I believe they sell Toyota, Scion, Nissan and Lexus there as well), feel free to send me a message here and I will give you the name of the person to work with to ensure you get the same great experience I did.

How much are the above 2 items go (what kind of coverage/term) for and is it by Toyota or 3rd party warranty?

Firebird,
 
I just purchased my Venza yesterday and didn't buy the extended warranty, but while with the F&I guy, he said because it was the last day of the month, the Toyota (not 3rd party) warranty was on sale. I don't know if it ever sells for more or less than the "sale" price, but we were talking about an extention to 7 years or 75,000 miles and the price was $985. The 7yr/100,000mi one was $1280.
 
I've never bought an extedned warranty for anything in my life, so I wasn't particularly interested - even though with a brand new product, some may want to consider it. It would be intersting to see what others have paid for a similar extended warranty to see if those prices are reasonable.

Looking at my paperwork, I got the 7yr 75,000 mile warranty for $1007.10, and the 4yr 55,000 mile prepaid maintenance for $875. So it doesnt look like they were giving TOO much of a discount off normal pricing. My dealer did inform me, though, that since the Venza is a 1st year new Toyota model, all Venza get warranty discounts (as opposed to a Camry, which is now 2-3 years from its "redux" new version).
