Purchased on Sat in Atlanta area by Latenter

I'd done a lot of research last week and had competing quotes from most of the Atlanta area dealers. Thought I'd share my results. Finally made a purchase this weekend and I'm very happy with it.
 
I ended up with a new LE sedan with cruise, keyless entry and carpet mats for $15,868, out the door including 6% local sales tax. Most dealers were quoting $16500-16800 out the door. I paid cash so I was able to get a $1000 discount (already included in total.) It's a great car and I like it more now than I did when I first picked it up! I do have to take it in this weekend though as they didn't actually have the cruise control in stock and will install it when it arrives.

I am from Atlanta, and looking for the same vehicle. Would you give me the name and location of the dealer you bought it from?

I got my car at Cobb County Toyota (in Kennesaw, up 75), they were very friendly and not too pushy. Sandy Springs Toyota said they would match, they weren't as convenient for me. Also check out Cherokee county - they quoted to within $100 of the others. If you send out email requests to each of the dealers in the area, you should be able to see and compare who has what.
 
Another nice thing about the emails is that I could forward them on to prove better offers available, so the dealers could compete against each other. Just make sure you get total out the door prices so they don't try to stick you with the extra doc fees/destination charges (several didn't include in their quotes.)

Negotiating? Used vs new '09... by tinkup

Hi all. We are pretty much ready to buy a '09 Corolla LE if we find the right price. We do have time to look though if that would help get the price down. We originally looked at used '07-'08 Corolla's with low mileage, but then the dealer showed us an '09 program car with appr. the same mileage (16,000) that was very nice. It was more than what we were planning to spend originally, but doable. We were ready to buy it yesterday after looking at it a second time, but decided to sleep on it. The price we got down to was $16,305, list price $17,488. Now after discussing it & researching Edmunds we're thinking new is the better way to go. (didn't think we could afford new in the beginning so hadn't considered it at all) The dealer shows new '09's LE's on their website for 17,469 (just one) to 18,314 (a large selection). Our hometown dealer lists them at 18,314 with a few at 18,214. We are within 60-75 miles of a lot more competition, but would prefer going with one of these two local dealers.
 
In order to make this work for us, we need to be down under 17,000...the closer to 16,305 the better. What is the best way to approach a dealer with this? Ask for their bottom line, or flat out tell them where we need to be? Also, since we do have time to wait, would it be more likely to get this price later on in January/February? We like the $750 cash incentive, but think that there will be more coming later on if we miss out this time. Or should we just go with one of the used program cars?
 
I apologize if these are all elementary questions, but we are very new to this. I don't see the point in buying a used '09 that had 16,000 miles put on it in under 6 months if a new car could be had for about the same price. This is all pretty overwhelming even with the research available here! Thanks in advance.

I think I am getting shafted on this offer... by OrangeMoon

I am negotiating online for a 2009 Corolla LE auto with remote keyless entry, cruise control, carpet mat set and 50 state emissions (fairly basic car). My best offer so far is $18,500 out the door. This offer sounds piss poor to me compared to everyone else's offers. Opinions?

Check out the new car section at www.overstock.com. I was able to price a 2009 Corolla XLE for around $15800 for 92801 zipcode.
