I want this car so bad, but I can't afford over 28k.
Seriously, another $600 adds a little over $11/mo to a payment. If you're living that close to the edge then you really should be looking at something even less expensive (or an 08 leftover)
Be smart. If you can work a deal, fine. If not, it wasn't meant to be. In this buyer's market however, stand firm at 28K and walk if they won't do it. Remember, your salesperson could be at a Chrysler or GM dealership right now. They're motivated to get your business, because some good sales guys will be dropping resumes off soon.
I am shopping for a 2009 Highlander with V6 and 4WD. Just curious, the price you paid includes Taxes, destination and other charges?
Like to know what others are paying for this model?
Good Luck with your new Highlander
I would like to buy a Limited and all I'm finding are empty lots. The state's largest Toyota dealer has 3 base models and 6 or so Hybrids. They have a 9-acre empty lot out back.
I have been looking for 2 weeks around Richmond Virginia and west as far as Harrisonburg in the Valley. Also checked web sites for dealers in the D.C. area and at the beach. Two here, three there, and nothing but ugly colors and oddball option packages left. IOW, no I don't want a Limited with the standard stereo and no XM.
What a waste of time. I finally called Toyota about when to expect the 2010 Highlander. She was pleasant and didn't have a clue. She didn't even know there was a shortage of Highlanders.
I wonder if the Lexus dealer has an RX on the lot?
Aw, what the heck, my Avalon just turned 37,000 miles. I don't need a new Toyota and they certainly don't need me.

Fitz Auto Mall currently shows a Limited "On order" with a $5K discount from MSRP
Thanks
MSRP $41,200
$7000 off for being a demo
$2000 for using Toyota financing. ( already have my credit union ready to refi and lower the rate about 3%)
It was the advertised memorial day special in the paper. I was lucky i got there early as there were two other pending offers from folks that saw it after i starting working the numbers with the sales guys.
Overall I think i got a new car for a used car price.
I just bought a Highlander sport V6, FWD with Value package 5, Sun Roof, Tow package, anti-theft for a 0%, 60 month drive out price including all options and taxes for $33, 877. The dealer had tinted the windows and pinstriped as well as filled the tires with Nitrogen. The car was bought for $3000 below MSRP.
How much did the dealer get me for? Is this a fair price? The car was bought in phoenix.
I live in Chicago Area.
Thx
And I got 2 quotes:
First one:
MSRP: $40,975, and sale price: $36,412 (price includes $1,000 rebate from Toyota) before TTL, I think
Second one:
MSRP:$41,548 and sale price:$36,174 also before TTL.
I guess the second one is better than the first one, but is it a good deal?
Also, Toyota offers different incentives in different parts of the country. For example, last fall, there was a $5,000 rebate on Highlanders in the Southeast region -- it was much lower (I think it was $2,000) in the mid-Atlantic region
I need the invoice pricing for these two options, which i don't currently see on Edmunds. Here's the MSRP:
Carpet/Cargo Mat - 3 Row Seating ........... 275.00
Mudguards .................................. 99.00
What should she pay for these items? Thanks,
Elliott
Is this a good price or I can possibly go lower?
Just wondering if you bought yours and what is the best price you reached?
I live in Ohio
Go to the following website - and see the quote

Good luck and do leep us posted.
I also believe that maybe no one had the color or request that we put in...but like I said the whole purpose of this was to avoid visiting several dealers and waste his time or the sales people's time...
enlighten me,,,please!
It's like anything else in a vehicle transaction - if you're not happy with the service / response / flexibility from one dealer, RUN (don't walk) to the next one.
Not to rub salt in a wound, but when I bought my '08 HL LTD AWD last year, everything except my trade-in appraisal was done via e-mail ahead of time, and was as we negotiated it when I got there...no surprises. This was at Brian Bemis Toyota in DeKalb, IL.
Thanks and good luck with the Highlander...how do you like it?...
I visited the dealer's own website and the exact vehicle I wanted was in stock....options, color, everything. I couldn't have factory-ordered it any closer to what I wanted, so that was a bit of luck. This dealer had a "click here to make an offer" button for each vehicle on the lot, so I went that route. I was then contacted via e-mail from the internet sales manager, and after about 30 minutes and some minor back-and-forth, and we had arrived at a price.
Two days later, when I arrived at the dealer, the sales manager was waiting for me with the vehicle pulled from inventory and ready for me to test drive. My wife and I were sent out alone (no salesman) and they appraised my trade while we were gone.
After the test drive, we haggled (although I wouldn't really call it that) over my trade allowance for about 5 minutes, and then were at a number we could both live with. He then honored without delay the price for the new car we had agreed upon earlier in the week, and that was about it. Saw the finance guy to do the paperwork, and we were off.
This is the best vehicle I've owned bar none. My only issues so far are the lack of availability of memory seats (although I knew that when I bought it), and the two extremely poor tire choices in the 19-inch size in winter weather. I live in the Chicago area, so this is a big deal to me. I'll probably upsize to 255/55R19 when I replace them.
Two, more local, dealers weren't as enjoyable to work with, so they each lost out -- Pauly Toyota in Crystal Lake and Schaumburg Toyota.
We went to a local Toyota dealer and no sale man care about us, so I go into the manager 's office directly and the fleet manager helped us. He give me one and said his price is the best one in the dealership.
MSRP: 28710.00
His price:26838.4
And I do not think his price is the best, since there are plenty of better prices in this forum.
Thanks.
I also read that it is true that the prices offer by the fleet managers is usally the best since he respond only to the delaership owners and makes no commissions..but they are also hard to reach....maybe in your case hesaid that he was the fleet manager and maybe he is not,,,good luck to you
Yes, I checked online and he is the fleet manager.
The price he gave me is the "dealer invoice + $200". And he showed the "invoice" to me. But I did not believe him.
Based on what I learned from this forum, some people did get the price below the dealer invoice.
Thanks,
MSRP:$26,935
Invoice: $24,761
E-Price:$23,261
Is there any more room to lower the "e-Price" further ?
Thanks.
I think this price is almost the best compare to what I got.
You can ask whether highlander qualify the new graduate discount program if you are graduating/graduate within 2 years. We know definitely not, but they may give you some off by asking this.
BTW, could you let me know which dealer did you get your quota?
Quoted 30303 before rebate and trade (almost fitzmall's price for a very similar car)- opinions? This is from Copeland in Brockton, MA that I bought my 2007 Sienna from before. I've been very impressed with the way they do business- the Sienna was a painless purchase and a great price. Other dealers, not so much. I had one bad experience lately where we had a deal on a base evp2 moonroof in Waveline Pearl, and they (Boch South in N. Attleboro) backed out at the last minute after hours of setting up the deal. We had the price set, trade set, a few throwins (oil change and a free detail) all nailed down. A new manger got involved at the end and killed it. My wife and I were not happy, my 2 year old was beside herself, and they lost out on selling my in-laws an Avalon at the same time- we went in together for force in numbers. However the salesman was great, and we're not convinced that the price was the issue. They conveniently produced emails with a different quoted price time stamped after we were at the dealership. Needless to say I won't be going back there again, nor will my in-laws.
I sent an e-mail to ask what options that 4x2 has and the next day it was gone from their web listing. Just my luck I guess.
Thanks and will keep searching and keep posting more questions here
Sincerely,
