    We are not as priveledged as our American friends when it comes to disclosure of invoice prices. In earlier discussions it would appear if you take 8% off the MSRP you will have a reasonably close figure to work from. Although I don't have the base model I have driven one and found it to be a great ride. Just received a copy of Liesure from CAA and it has an article on tests of the Sienna by everyday people. They gave it high marks on all models. If you can get a copy from your CAA office it maybe worth reading. I have a XLE and I am very satisfied with it. Hope your not in an Access price area or may not find any discounts. In Ontario you can buy for under MRSP. Good luck.

    I am new to this board and live in MA, as well Can you mention the name of the dealership in MA that gave you $900 off MSRP for a LE Package #7, or at least the city? It is the same one we are considering. Thanks a lot!

    Looking in Buffalo, NY area for XLE Sienna Package # 14

    Wantsienna, the times are reasonable. You might ask them to do what's known as an FRS request to change the color and package, however that may delay delivery if it is accepted.

    Myxplik, you may want to contact a dealer in Delaware or New Jersey as they will be getting package #14. I don't know about the New York area as they are in a different region than I am.
    Hope this helps.

    Thanks for your reply Mackabee. I'll ask the dealer about an FRS. However, he gave me the impression that he wasn't willing to make any changes for fear of delaying his allocation.

    Eventually, we may have to factory order our Sienna the way we want it because Chicago dealers don't seem to order them with DVD's. With a 3-year-old in tow, we would love to have it equipped that way. We are destined to wait until spring. This will give Toyota time to work out the bugs (with the fuel tank) and maybe the supply will increase to the point where dealers will discount off MSRP.

    In reading all your posts on getting deals under msrp I feel bad that all I was able to negotiate was msrp for a salsa red awd le #4 with gold trim due in early to mid October. I don't understand these discounts as Edmund's, Toyota themselves, and several other internet resources say that msrp is the going rate. Also why would Toyota sell for less than msrp when there are almost none on the lots here in the Chicago area and demand is enormous. I think it would be helpful to know some detail about the trade in side of the equation, as that might be where some of the discount off msrp might be coming from. Or in the alternative maybe I'm just an I'm an easy sell.

    When I was shopping, I found this site very helpful. Although it's too late for me now, I thought that I would ask some questions that might help those still shopping. Most of the information that I used was about price and how to get the best deal. After ordering the vehicle (Sienna LE Package #7, ~$900 over invoice) and placing $1000 down in the first week of May, I have come to realize price is not the only variable. What I hadn't figured on was how long it would take to get the vehicle. (I was told eight weeks, but I am still waiting). I had, and still have, little understanding of the allocation system. It seems that there are multiple variables, what is being manufactured, what is being shipped to the region, and what the salesman is willing or able to explain. Is there a link where information about production schedules and allocations to regions is available? At the dealership where I purchased the vehicle, it has taken four months to move from position 8 to 1 on the waiting list. It is difficult to know how much of this problem is internal to the dealer, and I have no idea if this is a normal or abnormal rate of change. Is there publicly available information about what has been historically allocated to a dealer? In such a tight market, this information might help people decide where the best deal really is. Clearly, promises about delivery dates from dealers can be misleading at best, and additional information would be helpful in making a decision about where to buy.

    I have the same frustration as phil412 and coloj. The only thing the dealers seem to know is MSRP and the “supply and demand” catch phrase. When I ask about the wait for what I am looking for (LE 8-Pass. Pckg#11) or whether they can get it, all I get is a list of what they have coming and a bunch of non-commitments. I get the feeling they cannot get what I want or they are hiding something. This is starting to leave a sour taste for Toyota with me.
      
    I am in southeast Michigan. I was willing to buy from Western NY at good % above invoice, but I was told that the list of vehicles Western NY can order from in September (which comes out a couple of days before the month) does not include LE 8 Pckg.# 11 but can only build pckg #1 or #4. I was told that Friday 29th. On the Toyota website where you can build your own vehicle, up to yesterday; the end of the month, I could build with pckg #11 using western NY zip code. Today 1st of September, pckg #11 is not available on the Toyota site, nor is pckg # 4! Why couldn’t I order Friday, I was still in August? If every month there is a new build list by region, then why is there a wait of more than one month?
    Why does one dealer in Michigan tell me that I should look on the Toyota site for vehicles available for my region and another dealer tells me I can order any vehicle I want?

    How can one navigate this maze? Is there a basic summary about the ins and outs of ordering, availability, allocations, builds by region and this whole chaotic mess Toyota is creating? If the dealers are lazy or ignorant to navigate it, why doesn’t Toyota make it available to the public to navigate for themselves?

    Thanks to everybody on this site for sharing their ideas and experiences. Well done Steve!

    I made my deal and am really hoping it comes true. Placed an order on the other side of Florida because they quoted a fair price and a reasonable delivery on an XLE with package #7. Placed the order on July 28th and am told the van will be built week 38 or w/o Sept 15th with delivery at the dealership two weeks later.

    I'll wait and see.
  • zebra5zebra5 Member Posts: 47
    Can anyone update me on the status of Sienna production now? Has production resumed back to its previous level now since the halt/significant slow-down back in August?

    Also, is there any anecdotal evidence that the wait lists for Siennas are longer or shorter now than say two months ago. I'm wondering what effect the Quest might be having on the demand for Siennas (i.e., shorter backlog?). I realize Toyota dealers are still selling every Sienna they take delivery on at MSRP or close to it, but I'm hoping the situation for future buyers like me might improve in coming months.

    I am doing some research for my dad who wants to buy a Sienna LE without any of the option packages. Apparently he reached an agreement with a local dealer, put down a deposit and was told that his vehicle would arrive in four to six weeks. The deal was for an LE WITHOUT any option packages. He comes to find out (six weeks later) that the vehicle won't arrive without an option package, that it will have option package #1 and it will cost him more money (roughly $1000). Doesn't sound like anyone is trying to rip him off because he will be paying for what is extra on the vehicle, but his point is that he has no use for the extras. He and my mom have no need for the rear seat speaker (they always sit in the front) and the power sliding door doesn't help them. Is it a fact that the vehicle cannot be ordered and come without any of the option packages?
  • tmdeptmdep Member Posts: 12
    I made a deal (MSRP) for a XLE AWD on 7/20 and was told by the dealer in NY that it would be about 10-15 weeks for it to come in. They were supposed to find out about their upcoming allocation in August. However, when I talked to them last week, they still did not have any word on a estimated availability. I have read about the production delays due to the recall, however I am wondering anyone has heard of any other delays. Also, has anyone heard anything about the DVD package. I know they are only building them with the Leather package(#17), however I have heard mixed messages on whether you can package #18 which includes the DVD player. Any help or thoughts anyone has would be greatly appreciated.
  • murgatroydmurgatroyd Member Posts: 3
    I am curious which NY dealer you are working with. WE were offered package 21 once at one dealer and lots of 17- no 18. We have been screwed by at least one dealer and are being strung along by 3- I am hoping to have a car by mid month
  • phil412phil412 Member Posts: 4
    Excellent give and take on this thread today. I just wanted to add that I was informed by my salesman that they were manufacturing awd le in #4 package only and that they track allotments by region. I put down $500 and did not test drive vehicle as the dealership had none and expected very little "on the lot availability" for 6 months.

    My wife and I are both long term Honda owners (Accords) and love the vehicles. We rejected 2003 Odyssey as we agreed with one rating agency's report that the ride was a little firm at lower speeds and my wife felt turning was somewhat cumbersome. It also irritates me that Honda has refused to put stability control as an option in either Ody or the Pilot.(and no awd option on the Ody). I could not find out whether Honda will add awd and stability control for 2004 Ody. When Americans find out how important the stability control saftey feature is, (particularly in higher center of gravity vehicles), those vehicles without it will suffer a loss of demand. According to the Chicago Tribune, 2 out of 3 European vehicles have this feature already. Also 2nd and 3rd row side curtain head protection air bags were a great selling point for me as this vehicle's number one priority is to protect my family. I also count the run flat tires as a net positive despite increased expense. If you've ever had a flat in a gang infested neighborhood or during a blizzard or along busy I-80 (I've experienced all three) you would very much want the option of being able to drive on a flat for 100 miles.

    We did drive the neighbor's somewhat smaller 2002 Sienna and loved it. I drove 40 miles to deal with same salesman who sold my neighbor his Sienna, and he indicated that if I did not like the new 2004 Sienna better he would refund my down payment. Apparrently with their waiting list a vehicle from a "busted sale" only takes a matter of hours to fill. I don't mind Toyota making a handsome but honest profit on a splendid vehicle, but I am counting on them to be fair om my trade in. I ordered our vehicle on August 22nd and am looking at 6 to 8 weeks, 10 at the outside if I am remembering the conversation with salesman accurately. I hope this information helps someone as Edmund's service herein really helped us find (we think) the vehicle that was right for us. I will keep the thread informed as new information developes.

    Anyone who is feed up with the confussion of buying a Sienna should call Toyota's Customer Service number and register a complaint. I have called many times to find out what the "Truth" really is -- every dealer has a different story. I noted my dislike that package #7 (BW) was not available in my region in the beginning and is almost impossible to get now. I have found a varying degree of knowledge among the service reps too. I recently called to verify that pkg #7 was now available in my region (something a larger dealer told me but others denied). I was told by one rep that only the dealer would know that so I called back and had another rep put me on hold to check and and he verified that I could get one.

    There is no site where we can find out what is being built or is available in our different regions. I have found that some dealerships do know a lot more than others and have a better grasp on the allocation game. According to Toyota's customer service center, the dealership has to ask for the specific van you are ordering and most likely will get it in if you have left a deposit - they are filling deposit allocation requests first, but if they are out of a certain vehicle, they will sub. I have been told numerous times that they do not build vehicles to order -- they build vehicles and see if they match an order (which certainly does not seem to be the case when people are getting VIN numbers??)

    Regarding option package #1 requirement -- yes, you do have to have at least package #1 on a vehicle. Doesn't seem much like an option to me either, but that is the way it goes.

    I have my order in with Toyota City in Mamaroneck NY. I bought my 4runner there a few years ago and they were great. I still have no complaints other then I can't get a approximate date. All the dealers I talked to said #18 wasn't a option(this was in July). This dealer said they may be able to pull it out when the van hits Jersey and have it installed there and priced as a factory option..
  • lok888lok888 Member Posts: 1,788
    It is Toyota of Wellesley. It is not far away from your area. The MSRP for the LE, 7-seater with LE package #7 is $27800. They initial quoted $26900 (with 2 1/2 to 3 months wait) without negotiate. I have been dealing with Expressway Toyota with $1000 off MSRP but they back out the deal when the production was on halt. And most dealers insist MSRP and some offer only $500 off.

    I have been offered $1,300 below invoice by Jerry's Toyota in Maryland. They claim the can deliver in 8-10 weeks. When I mentioned this deal to another dealer he told me there is no way I can get it sooner than 6 months and that they would ask for a non refundable deposit on a non existent vehicle I am looking for and XLE with option package #1. has anybody done business with Jerry's toyota.
  • ncflyerncflyer Member Posts: 28
    Just be prepared for a long wait everybody, I put down deposit for my Sienna in Cleveland area, early June, and am still waiting, XLE with the works, except Nav. Dealers quoting 6 months are probably the most realistic at this point! The production problems in August really slowed things down. Dealer told me I'm a lock for next allocation, so at best maybe I'm a month away. So, it's a long wait, but I'm glad Toyota has such high standards for their vehicles, if it were a VW, it would take years of consumer outrage for them to fix the problem!! I figure to get the vehicle I want, it's worth a few months, though it did tick me off that I just had to spend $200 to fix the vehicle I'm trading in.

    We really wanted the dvd put into our Sienna, even if it was put in at the dealership once it came in. However, our salesman, who was extremely helpful, assured me that they weren't coming in that way, and that to pay the dealership to put it in was silly. Especially since we were leasing-we were going to pay an extra 2k for something we were going to turn in in 4 years. So, we actually went to Best Buy and found a portable one with a 10 inch screen and detachable speakers with 2 cordless headphones, for $799.(an Audiovox) And, we can actually take it with us when we vacation into the hotel, etc. It has the straps that hook on in between the seats, and has a bigger screen than they offered installed. It was a good compromise as I have my Sienna XLE,taken from incoming inventory, love it, and have the dvd to keep my 3 kids somewhat quiet!!Just a thought for some of you looking for that option.
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    I think if a dealer asks for a non-refundable deposit, you should ask them to reconsider. It's not like you're special ordering some unique ride that no one else in the country will want if you back out when it arrives.

    I suppose a non-refundable deposit does discourage people from putting up deposits with several dealers.

  • chief321chief321 Member Posts: 19
    Toyota has high standards, but ANY of the auto manufacturers would have rushed to fix this problem. When fuel leaks in a crash test, particularly in a popular family segment like minivans, any car company out there pulls out all of the stops to get it fixed.

    I'm planning to buy a Sienna soon, so I'm not out to insult anyone here, but it amazes me that so many people spin a Toyota safety issue into a positive. If this were an incident involving a GM or Ford vehicle there would be dozens of messages on this board bashing them for their incompetence and calling it a dangerous design flaw.
  • readyalreadyreadyalready Member Posts: 22
    If you are looking in northern CA then I would call Valley Toyota in Sanger for great pricing, although you might have to wait. Ask for the fleet or general manager.
  • sbell4sbell4 Member Posts: 446
    the purpose of a non-refundable deposit is also to protect the dealer from having to "roll-back" a reported sale. When a vehicle is reported sold it expedites the delivery process and the dealer can get a replacement van quicker. If a person changes their mind the van will not match with the person's name it was reported in. This system prevents dealers from reporting all of their vans "sold" before they really are.
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    Thanks Scott. I'm not a believer in non-refundable deposits myself - seems like there should be a better system that doesn't take advantage of the consumer like that. Lots of unexpected things can happen in 6 weeks to cause a sale to fall through that have nothing to do with buyer's remorse or finding a better deal elsewhere.

    Just a little insight on supplier/affiliate discounts. If you read the Nissan Quest board some have received discounts from the VPP program for employees of direct suppliers/affiliates to Nissan. Well I searched the web and found list of companies that can receive the discount. And my wife's company was on there. So I thought I would search and I eventually called and found out that Toyota does not do the same for their suppliers/affliates that they deal with. Also for Nissan VPP program you do not have to directly work on a Nissan property/facility you just have to be an employee of the company on the list. So someone from NJ who does not have any direct contacts with Nissan, as long as you work for the company on the list you can get the VPP discount. So Toyota is very tough in that sense. But still hoping for a 2004 Sienna just have to wait longer. I kids would scream if we couldn't open their sliding door window, that the Quest does not have. And the split fold rear bench is the other seller for me.
  • ncflyerncflyer Member Posts: 28
    Well, according to what I read about the recall, the Toyota only had a problem in one crash test at 40MPH, one that couldn't be repeated, one that never happened in the real world, one that was generated using a much higher standard than is required by law-- at least that's my understanding.

    Chief321, you have a shorter memory than I, there was Audi sudden acceleration problem in the 80s, there was the Ford Explorer tires, there was the recent VW starter problems-- those automakers didn't issue a recall without kicking and screaming, they finally relented when they were assailed by the media, this recall by Toyota is so very different, and it's cost Toyota a bloody fortune to slow production for a vehicle with more demand than there is supply.
  • chief321chief321 Member Posts: 19
    You're correct when you say the Toyota recall is very different...it's also a very different situation that the others your cite. The 94 Sienna problem came to light roughly 6 months after introduction, with relatively few vehicles built (approx 34,000). That's important for two reasons...(1)you don't risk tarnishing the image of a brand new vehicle design and most importantly (2) it's cheap to fix compared to what it would cost to repair a vehicle line that has been in production for years with hundreds of thousands or even millions of vehicles on the road.

    This leak occured in an IIHS test and they are brutal when it comes to negative publicity. Considering the cicumstances, the recall was a no-brainer for Toyota.

    Steve - I know this conversation belongs on one of the more generic Sienna boards, but I'm not sure how to move it.
  • tmdeptmdep Member Posts: 12
    I received some updated news from my dealer today...they said they are receiving about 1 XLE AWD in a month and it doesn't look like Package #18 is available. I am going to try to call Toyota Customer Service tomorrow to see if I can find out anything more as to when package #18 will be available. I'm roughly 3 months out before I get mine and I would almost rather wait until the DVD player is available(if I can get a ETA).
  • steverstever Guest Posts: 52,454
    Chief321, a little topic drift is normal and tolerated, but this board tries to focus more on wheeling and dealing.

    Try the main Toyota Sienna 2004+ discussion or the Toyota Sienna 2004+ problems one for more about the recall and general Sienna info. Thanks!

    Hello

    On July 28th I signed a buyer’s order for an LE 8 passenger with option package #7, floor mats and cargo net for 26,876 (1,283 under MSRP). This does NOT include the 389 “doc” fee, and 26 for title and New Car Warranty Act, and 7% tax. I took delivery on August 14th.

    After calling Toyota I learned that ours is NOT one with the problem gas tank.

    My impression is that this is a fair deal considering the market in our area, and the fact that we got our van in 2 weeks is outstanding. All in all, I’m very happy.

    Roswell Toyota, Atlanta: Pretty smooth sailing. I dealt with the leasing/inventory manager there, who seemed a straight shooter; cannot tell you what the salespeople are like because I do not know. His initial offer was pretty much straight MSRP (just like the other dealers in this area) but I shopped around and got a better price, and when I went back to them he beat the best offer I had by 200 and I stopped there. (Might have kept playing, but from what I was reading this was “ballpark reasonable” for our area and I did not think I could do significantly better within a reasonable distance from our house). Also, this person seemed more optimistic about his ability to get a van within 2 months (at that time) than the others I spoke with.

    Thank you to the participants on this board who encouraged me not to pay MSRP (I would have otherwise). I saved a little money and feel better about the deal because of this discussion.

    By the way, I was quoted 27,594 (plus tax, 21 title, and NO doc fees, etc.) from the Costco program, FYI.

    Took the van on 2 trips, (mostly highway) and got 25.6 mpg on one trip and 21.5 on the other. On the second, we drove 75 mph for hours on end, while we drove at lower speeds on the first trip.
  • jxg123jxg123 Member Posts: 6
    We placed an order for XLE AWD (option #17) for 1k under MSRP (+tax) this week. Probably could have gotten a bit more under MSRP but we're satisfied with this deal. Now comes the hard part - waiting. We're told about 6-8 weeks wait. Is that normal or too optimistic? We certainly hope get it before thanksgiving.
  • tmdeptmdep Member Posts: 12
    Congrats on the van..where did you purchase it...I have mine on order but it's at least another 12 weeks and best I could do in NY/CT area was MSRP..all dealers were the same..I'm working on trying to get package #18 installed...I am waiting to hear back from the Toyota Regional manager(hopefully Mon or Tue)
  • ncflyerncflyer Member Posts: 28
    Unfortunately, no dealer can predict the future, even if they are trying to in an honest fashion. I was told 6-8 weeks on June 1, here it is Sept 5 and no allocation!!!! So don't hold your breath. I'm looking at the Quest this weekend, hopefully I can get my $500 deposit back if I decide that's the better route. Quests seem to be easier to come by in my area.
  • rbell2rbell2 Member Posts: 180
    Do your homework on the '04 Quest. You'll no doubt like the way it handles, drives, and accelerates but here were my complaints:

    - Rear Air Completely inadequate. Be sure to seat on the 3rd seat and crank the air up.
    - Too many rattles.
    - Cargo behind 3rd Row noticeably less than Ody and Sienna.
    - Buttons on dash to operate all the various controls required quite a bit of searching/fumbling
    - Rear seats seem a little flimsy
    - Cup holder for front is very inconvenient
    - Was a noisier drive than Ody (slightly) and Sienna.

    Look at overall reliability for Nissan products - they easily trail Honda and Toyota.

    my 2cents
  • vanshopper7vanshopper7 Member Posts: 21
    If you do decide to go with the Quest, your $500 deposit should absolutely be refundable. In most states, I believe it is illegal to take a "non-refundable" deposit on a vehicle. If they try to keep it, check with your state's Atty General's Office or Dept. of Consumer Affairs for guidance.

    Are you sure you don't want to wait for a Sienna????? Just kidding. But they are in high demand for a reason.
  • viskhaviskha Member Posts: 35
    I live in Nebraska and am looking for a good price on an XLE with DVD & Navigation. So far I have $500 off MSRP from a dealer in Iowa with delivery by January ($35,310 with leather, heated seats, & vehicle skid control - MSRP is $35,810 he says). Anyone have any recommendations for dealers in Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri or South Dakota?
  • ncflyerncflyer Member Posts: 28
    thanks for the info, I was wondering about that. The bit of a snag is my dealer provided me a minivan loaner for 2 weeks, which I am very appreciative of. THey rented it from Enterprise, so I imagine their out of pocket was $500 or so, who really knows.

    I will hold out, but I am disappointed it's taking 2x longer than I was told (so far). ANd, I have a very bad feeling the dealer will reneg on the money he promised me for the trade in-- any idea if they can do that, vanshopper? As it is, Ohio taxes have gone up 1% since I put my deposit down!

    Hi--

    I only discovered these Edmunds msg boards in the past few months but they're been a great resource. It helped me to decide to buy the 2004 Sienna instead of the 2003 Odyssey (both great vehicles in my opinion). So, now I have my new Sienna so I thought I'd share my experience with anyone that's interested.

    In mid-July I sent out 30 emails to the Internet Sales depts of dealers in California-- about 20 to SF Bay Area dealer (where I live) and the rest to dealers in the Sacramento, central valley, and LA area (to get some regional baselines). I received about 15-20 emails in return. Prices varied from a high of MSRP from LA dealers to a low of $500 over cost from Sacramento and central valley dealers. The Bay Area split the difference between MSRP and cost. My best offer was $500 over "cost" (cost was defined by multiple dealers as their invoice price plus Toyota Dealer Advertising, which was $492 for the Sienna being sold in northern CA). The "cost" was quoted at $30,185. The MSRP for the XLE with CF (floormats) and GH (Pkg 14) is $33,811 (this is the only reliable, consistent number). I paid $30,685. I brought my lowest offer to the dealer, he verified it, and then he found the Sienna we wanted in his in-coming inventory sheet. We ordered the car in late July and he said it would arrive mid-August. We gave him a $2000 deposit (he only required $1000 but I wanted the frequent flier miles earned by using my credit card-- $2000 was the max they'd do!) and he signed a contract that he would deliver the Sienna to us by some certain date. It arrived exactly on-time. In addition to $30,685 I paid $250 for California vehicle licence fee (this will nearly triple on October 1 due to our State budget mess!!), $45 doc fee, and 7.25% CA sales tax. The total was $33,207.93. I didn't get the extended warranty or any type of protection program. They discussed everything and encouraged me to buy the extras but were not obnoxious about it. This was a great buying experience! Good luck in your search for your Sienna!! Steve

    I am in the Orlando area and am looking for good Florida dealer suggestions. None of the dealers here in Orlando have any Siennas at all. All are quite smug about supply/demand and pricing and only one is mildly interested in contacting us when the model we want comes in. I am ready to buy NOW, but want to find a van to drive and colors to choose from. Please let me know of any good dealerships to look into. I just hope we don't have to buy an Odyssea or Quest for lack of interest on the part of Toyota. Thx - Rob R.

    Steve,
    I have the same question as want_sienna.
    Could you let me know which dealer you went to? Would be a great help. If you prefer, you may reach me at yeomanflood@hotmail.com.

    Thanks for sharing! I agree, this message board is excellent.

    I would suggest Gettel Toyota over in Bradenton. There internet sales department seems solid and will give you a good experience. I can't say they will get a van any sooner than the others, though.

    they are a bit of a "screamer ad" store but they do the volume pricing to make up for their advertising tactics. They should be able to take care of you. I have been to a few functions with some of the people there and I can give you a little heads up info on who to speak with there if you chose to contact me.

    We recently ordered a '04 LE 8Pass with pkg BW/CF. MSRP was $28,011. We settled on a price of $26,700. I am very pleased and the delivery was just about 4 weeks out. We are scheduled to take delivery on 9/22.

    When I purchase a vehicle, I first determine all of the options and then call 3 dealerships. I inform them that I don't play games and am a serious buyer. The best price back wins the deal. One shot only. I received prices ranging from MSRP + $100 to to $26,400 from the dealer that originally wanted MSRP+!! Sorry, I don't play the games and stuck with the best price from round 1 or $26,700.

    Boy, I really wish I could even so much as negotiate a dollar off at the Toyota dealers here in British Columbia, Canada.

    Here the dealers have something called Access Pricing. Apparently, all dealers charge the same price on a vehicle, and although they are allowed to sell for less, they NEVER do. So most consumers in Canada pay prices that are way above TMV.

    Any one of you who has comments on this please share your thoughts with us at the discussion "Toyota Canada Access Prcing". You can find this under "Sienna".

    If anyone got a good deal on a Sienna from a dealership in North Carolina, please share the dealership's name. Thank you.

    Anyone know the price for a RF "rear spoiler" on 04 LE Sienna? Is there a picture somewhere I can see how it looks like?
