Toyota MSRP $18,804
Toyota dealer invoice $17,228
Edmunds.com dealer invoice (excludes ad fee) $16,920
Edmunds.com TMV $18,337
quotes from seven dealerships range from $17,128 to $16,891 ($100 to $337 below invoice)
quote from eighth dealership $16,427 ($801 below invoice)
The eighth quote comes from a high volume dealership located 80 miles away (some of the other seven are not small either). High volume means more wiggle room, but the eighth dealership's price seems out of line with the others that I am curious why it is so desperate for my business. Their salesman called this morning to lower the price by another $100, from $701 to $801 below invoice, after I sat on the original offer for almost a week, and offered to deliver half-way between the two cities (I did not agree to this, not having seen or picked the vehicle). Even if there is a sales quota bonus from Toyota, I doubt that he needs to sell this one car at such a low price to an out-of-town customer just to meet quota.
So I am wondering whether this low price might be a red flag of some sort that I should consider more carefully as I weight the net $400+ savings against the risk of having to deal with a dealership 80 miles away if a problem arises with the vehicle, which would be a great inconvenience for me. I am not asking anyone to decide for me, just wish to know whether this might too low that it should raise concerns? Thanks for any feedback.
What's the lowest OTD price that people have paid for the 2009 Corolla LE?
Is that a good price?
Toyota's $1000 cash rebate on the Corolla was supposed to end on Monday 01/05 but was extended until Wednesday 01/07. On Wednesday evening it was announced that the cash rebate on the Corolla is now $1500 valid until Monday 02/02. The 0%-financing offer did not get extended beyond 01/07; it is now 2.9%/36 months, 3.9%/48 months, 4.9%/60 months.
Where does it say the cash rebate was extended? does it apply to nebraska?
Is anyone able to match or beat those prices?

That is all fees except for the sales tax that I will pay in arkansas to tag it.
List was 18554, options were, cruise -ev 6cdchanger, ck heated mirrors, keyless entry, and mats.
The dealer lost a lot of money but they let me have it after I almost left several times.
Options: FE,CK,SX,VS,DK. Is that a good price?
Sounds good, I am looking at the same car with SR sunroof.
I think they have a $1300 rebate now. list $20,064--- no-haggle price $16,708 + TTT and $99 PC fee. I am holding out for less if I go with the Corolla.
The wife wants to test drive again, she noticed the loose steering.
Also looking at Honda Civic EX waiting to see if they offer a rebate.
I am looking for the same in Tampa FL. Can you give me the breakdown and the dealer you bought it from. Thanks

Bought the 09 Corolla in Tampa Florida.
LE Auto with carpet mats - no additional options
OTD $15400
This includes the sales tax (6%+$50), title/tag, cash rebate of $1500.
The SET administrative fees /SET destination fee from SE Toyota is just profit. Do not pay it - I did not pay it.
(1) Window Tint
(2) No Keyless Remote (going to pay $195-$245 extra for the remote)
(3) OTD $15800 (this includes the sales tax (6.25%), title/tag, cash rebate of $1500.
I would like some help with buying a new 2009 Toyota Corolla LE. I am in Northern CA and would like to know what is the lowest price paid OTD for a new 2009 toyota corolla LE? Thanks.
I goit a quote of $15997 with options
options were, cruise -ev 6cdchanger, ck heated mirrors, keyless entry, and mats
This does not include 6% tax that i have to pay in arkansas.
Is this agood price or.. does anyone think I can get a better price?
Just add the invoice price for cruise -ev 6cdchanger, ck heated mirrors, keyless entry. Then see what is the total price.
Do not pay any SET administrative, dealer fees, etc. That is pure profit. No need to pay for carpet mats either.
I've been shopping for pricing on Toyota Corollas (S with automatic). I've found a dealer that would sell to me for $1 over invoice. The problem is the invoice pricing on edmuns does not match.
MSRP / Invoice
(per Edmunds)/ (per Edmunds)
Base Corolla S Auto $17250 / $15783
SX - Sport Package $1495/ $1196
CF - Carpet Mats $199/ $126
Destination $720/ $720
Total Costs $ 19664 / $17825
Rebate -$1500
Invoice minus rebate $16325
The dealer is stating a MSRP of $19719 and invoice minus rebate of $16828. I can deal with the difference in MSRP, but the invoice difference of ~ $500 is difficut to digest.
Does anyone have specific knowledge of Gulf States toyota pricing on a Corolla?
I'll be visiting the dalership tomorrow, and will look at the invoice then.
Dealers here are not willing to negotiate much.
thanks for all your help.
Wait a few days and get quotes from dealers around (closer big cities are the best)
You will be amazed how willing they become
UPSHOT: Keep at it ( do your homework and get it down to 3/5 great deals) and don't burn the bridges.
Sometimes just working with them over time will set up scenarios more to your circumstances. Sometimes just the fact that you have come around or called (more than once) will either put you in the category of PITA looker/tire kicker or what I suspect you are, serious buyer. Just let em know what problems you are trying to solve and you might just be surprised when they actually offer good to great solutions. You can always so no. etc. Just as people brush off salesman, dealerships, etc., turn around is indeed fair play.
I have been surprised on two occasions (actual cars bought) , that absolutely the best deals were the closest (location) oem dealers !!!!
'09 Corolla LE auto with mats + keyless remote
15,422 OTD
Orlando dealer told me that I would never get this deal from them.
Thanks for the info
Pat
The price was $15,500 + doc fee $129+Tax. It has 16" alloy wheels ,cruise control, six cd changer and all. I am also paying them $1200 to put leather interior.
This web site has been a great help.
From reading the rest of the entries on this thread, it doesn't seem like I'm getting that great of a deal.
I would think they'd be pricing the 2009s lower by now, since the 2010s are coming out in a few weeks and Toyota's MSRP is supposedly going to be the same on the 2010s as for the 2009s.
Anyone have any opinions on this?
If you have a few minutes, we would greatly appreciate your participation in a quick (and fun) exercise on how best to organize our site information.

I have emailed a few salesmen and asked what they thought about the 2010 MSRP being the same as the 2009...none of them have responded...
I bought a 2009 Corolla LE on Monday. It's an automatic with cruise control and remote keyless options (pretty common configuration, MSRP 18,314). I bought from Toyota of Huntington Beach (Minh and Scott in the internet department were pleasant and did not play any games). OTD price was $16,412 (taxes were paid on 16.3K, so it was a bit under 15K after the 1500 cash back). I live in LA county, so the tax rate is 8.25%. The last $300 was the hardest - a number of dealers would offer the car at 16.7-16.8K OTD.
-Tim
Just to clarify: when people say OTD are they including TTL or not? I can't really tell...
I've been looking in the SD area and the best deal had been 14,995.
Note: all these prices reflect the 1500 rebate being used against the price.
By the way, Toyota is currently offering $400 instant cash rebate for college grads! (Must have graduated in the last two years.) All the salesmen are keeping this one quiet, I found out through a friend.
