sport trim

[yingwei]

i've got a quote for the solara sport trim 2.4L for 20,000 (inclusive dest. n handling, excluding tag n tax). is it a good deal?

[NotDads]

Paid 23,300 for mine, and its a sport with the V6 and 6 dic in dash cd changer

[yingwei]

NOTDADS> was that inclusive of tax?

[NotDads]

After tax it was about 24,600 But i recently had my 2003 Hyundai Tiburon totaled so with purchasing a new car within 30 days my insurance coverd the tax.

Out the door was $23,000 and that includes tax and extended warranty for 75,000 miles. Hope this helps.

$600 back of invoice put me at $22k and change. Sticker was $25,500 and change. If you're getting $23k out the door on an SE Sport V6 with all the goodies, you're buying thousands under dealer invoice. Amazing!

$21,800 was the deal for my SE Sport with all the goodies including 6 disc changer and without a sunroof. My dad and I walked into the dealership with invoice price I rec'd from the i-net and the price another dealership quoted. The dealership gave me $100 below the other dealership and made a few hundred dollars to profit. They didn't have an SE Sport without sunroof, so I had to put down the $900 which is dealer price and paid 22,700. The invouice for the sunroof is $700 (now I know). I would highly recommend Team Toyota because they sell in volume and don't play around. Most dealerships will stick with a price and give you the run around on how popular this new car is and inflate their invoice price. Most don't move vehicles like Team Toyota. They have won many awards on vehicles sold. Trust me! Also, if you have AAA, you can call them and get the dealer invoice and pay $500 over invoice guaranteed at their participating dealers. They will mail you a certificate to guarantee you that deal. Just another perk of being a AAA customer. Think I'm lying? Give them a call, you'll be glad you did.

I can get anyone the same deal I received (if interested), $600 BELOW invoice which put me roughly at $22k WITH a sunroof, JBL, compass, etc. I bought it at Tempe Toyota (Phoenix area).

Why don't you post how you did this Weedo? I would be interested in learning how a dealership would rip themselves off. I am absolutely pessimistic about this because it simply doesn't make sense. Why would any company buy a product for lets say 20,000 and sell it 19,000? People are in business to MAKE money, not LOSE it!

You mention up here that you paid 22K and change, exactly what I paid for my car. How in the world is that below invoice? Invoice isn't sticker price. I hate to break that to you. Invoice is also not what the dealer usually says it is. There is no way the invoice for an SE Sport is $25500. If you are getting an SE Sport out the door for 23K with all the goodies, the bottom line is that you spent a few thousand over invoice. Check for yourself if you don't believe me. The V-6 SE Sport comes with standard features and few options like 6 disc CD and sunroof. Everything else is pretty much standard. I remember the invoice price being in the upper ballpark of 21,500. Go to invoicedealers.com and find out. There are also other sites that will list invoice. I know for a fact that the invoice is no where near 23-25K. If you want to believe that, go ahead, no dealership in their right mind will sell you a car under invoice unless you work for them or know sopmeone who does. It's just not coomon sense nor business sense.

how does that work? So you can get discount on insurance rate if you buy a car within 30 days?

Call Sherman Weekes at Tempe Toyota: (480) 598-0000.

Ask him what he sold the last two Toyotas we bought for. He'll tell you exactly how much below invoice ($900 & $600). My name is Andy Wheaton just so he'll know who you're asking about. He can give you the same deal. They're the #1 Toyota dealer in the nation.

Don't get all huffy puffy, just call him and ask him. Of course if you don't live in the area, you're going to have to fly down or ship the car back. But the savings might be worth it.

Hey Weedo, I know I got a good deal. It's just making sense since you are claiming you paid the same amount for the same car I bought but say you bought it for thousands under invoice. My argument to you is the invoice price. I believe you got a great deal like myself. But, under invoice, hardly. Invoice is in the upper 21000 ballpark. Look it up.

Let's be done with this, just call him, quick arguing! Again you're not reading the posts. Where did I claim that I bought a car for thousands under invoice??????? Again, $600 below on the Solara, $900 below on the Sequoia. Another thing you obviously don't know, invoices are different for different "regions". Thus, your exact invoice can and will most likely be different. Have you heard of TDA? Other regions have higher or lower TDAs, which will show up on the invoice.
