Guys
Can you post the information about the dealers, As I am looking for Base Highlander with V6 Engine and Tech package. Most of dealerships in Rochester and Buffalo are giving closer to MSRP or above invoice. Could any anyone suggest anything from your experience in dealing with these dealers.
Thanks
Everyone has experience of buying 2012 Toyota Highlander SUV Base 3.5L V6 in Houston, TX. Please share.
Price + TT&L
Or OTD price.
Thanks in advance.
I'd like to buy my wife's new SUV (Highlander (AWD) SE or Limited). Can anybody share what target price range will be acceptable at upstate New York area?
- Limited (AWD): $35,000~37,000
- SE (AWD): $33,000~33,500
The above prices found on Fitzmall and are they reasonable prices? Can any dealership beat the price around NY, PA, MA, OH area?
Also, can anybody what trim I should go to? AWD is deifinitley required in here because of long, cold, and feet high snow winter.
Please share your thought, buying experience, and driving experience.

What is a good sales price?
What is the current money factor on a 36 month/12-k lease?
What is the residual factor for a 36 month/12k-year lease?
Narrowed search to Highlander or Murano LE. Excluding the 3rd row issue, anybody have preference comments?
August money factor is .00055.
Residual on an 2012 Highlander V6 AWD with Nav, MSRP of $41,218, is 55% to $22,820.
There is a $500 cash rebate on leases.
Going with the Highlander. Sales price, without the cash rebate was $38,100.
I recently bought a Highlander limited edition AWD
Paid 36.5 K OTD price. (Including Tax, Tag, Title, Dealer fees)
MSRP for the car was close to 42K.
Traded in E320, had 90K + miles on it. (Got 10K for that)
Financed it for 0% for 60 months.
Thank you
They might have a dealership in Harrisburg too, but I am not sure. I have only dealt with the folks in Hamburg.
Exactly what you're looking for well below invoice & no need to negotiate. Prices are clearly marked on their website.
They're also a Nissan dealership. Bought a new Nissan Altima there in 2011. Several thousand (literally) off of the MSRP. No dealerships here in Western PA could come close. Not sure on trade-in values...was coming off of a lease and decided to buy this time.
If you go through Fitzgerald, call & arrange an appointment, especially for Saturdays. Very busy and understandably so considering their prices.
I am looking for a Limited AWD w navigation and leather seats. Did your price include that as well? Can you please provide dealership name and state. Thank you!
$37,800
out the door with 7.25% sales tax, title, docs, etc = $41,000
purchased on 8/15/12 in Elgin, IL (Chicago suburb)
Got to love it!

Is that in the ballpark of what I should be paying for this vehicle. Have they left any fees out that will surprise me later? Thanks for any feedback.
It seems like you got a very good deal. I am trying to buy the exact same model. Can you please share the dealer information, sales person and purchased data with me?
thanks

Highlander SE, 4-cyl, Blizzard Pearl/Bisque leather; tow prep, clear paint protector, iPod/USB adapter
Paid $31,080 OTD.
The tow prep, clear paint protection, and iPod/USB adapter are options we didn't ask for, but just happened to be on the vehicle that the dealer located for us. A $460 bonus there.
Friends, Out-The-Door is the only way to shop a vehicle. It defeats the dealer's Three-Card-Monte pricing games and levels the playing field for the consumer by giving you only one number to compare from dealer to dealer. You don't even need to break out the calculator!
It's an alternative to the predatory pricing scheme that most dealers prefer, where they quote you a price to get you in their showroom, then heap on dealer fees, destination fee, tax, title, tag, etcetra, which can add another $2-$3,000 to the price. These fees vary from dealer to dealer.
Out-The-Door pricing gives you a single number to work with and compare one dealer's bid against the next. You tell them what options you want on the vehicle and that's what they bid on. Apples to apples. Let them do the math.
In my case they ended up finding a vehicle that had extra options on it. I told them, "It's okay if it has extra fluff on it but I'm not interested in paying for it." They didn't try to up the price at all, so apparently a few hundred dollars worth of fluff doesn't cut too deeply into the profit margin.
Bottom line: traditional price negotiation favors the dealer, OTD negotiation gives the advantage back to the consumer.
I should have mentioned that I got 0% financing for 60-months, although that offer may only be available from Southeast Toyota.
The Highlander is my wife's car and I have yet to drive it. . . but she tells me it's quite nice!
Negotiated MSRP $34,640.00
ON THE ROAD PRICE - $37,337,34 with $14K trade
It is a Mica Limited tan interior with Nav, Tow, Cargo Mats, Crossbars and Exhaust tips. Rear seat DVD's
Good price. Several dealers around would not even touch this.
Will appreciate if someone can share their experience for 2013 Highlander i.e how much off they got MSRP?
Thank- You
