Ask what they think the dealer paid for that van. Several dealers hang out in that thread, many who buy cars at auction all the time.
Tell them its CPO because it does cost the dealer more to recondition and certify it (and get that 7/100 warranty), so don't expect to pay what the dealer paid. It'll be $2 grand or so more than they paid, I'm guessing.
Good luck.
Can anyone guide what typical requirements are to qualify for zero % or low APR?
e.g. FICO score ? or income ? or down payment, etc?
Also, can cash to dealer be negotiated for reduced price on top of zero % or low APR promotion?

I am getting a quote of about 25000 + tag ($150 and tax) with LE#2 and alloy wheels for LE 8 passenger siena . Dealer says that he needs to custom order it and to do that I need to close the deal and put some refundable advance to him. Delivery will be in a week to to 10 days.
Q1. What is your comment on price with above options.
Q2. Is it normal to go through ordering/advance as above if exact color/configuration is not available in hand?
Please advice asap.
for 25300 + tax and fees. I think with alloy wheels you are getting a good deal
but probably it depends on the location.
Where is the dealership located in ?
27200 (all inclusive) + tag transfer (119) + tax 1632 + 80 (Doc fee)
With 0% APR in South FL.
What you guys say about deal? Bad? Good? OK?
-s :confuse:
MSRP 32,705 with these options
EVP#2
Fog Lamp
JBL speaker
floor mat/door sill
17" wheels
Got it for $30,000 plus tax, title, license
I believe invoice on the vehicle was around $29,087 but throw in the factory advertising charges, etc, then the invoice was around 29,800.
Took me a while but basically emailed a few dealers in the area (Iowa) and gave them a list of options and said I was gathering quotes from dealers and was going with the lowest one. The Des Moines dealership won out. The Iowa City dealership didn't even want to deal with me. Long story on that one but basically emailed their GM and asked why bother having an internet department if they're not willing to provide quotes via email??
Hope this helps anyone else looking and good hunting!!

on 11/1/09, i bought a 2010 sienna, LE 8 pass. w/ evp #2, tow, mats... msrp 28k, sales price 25.5k, 28.2k OTD. south coast toyota in Orange County Ca.
I think the best measure would be to use edmunds and get the appraisal values. Most appraisal calculators will give 3 values, retail, private party, and wholesale. IMO the value you should use is wholesale for an ebay sale, not retail and not private party. That should give you an indication of the value. I did not do that but you can easily and should.
You should also do a carfax before sinking that kind of $ into a car that you have not seen.
Might also look locally via craigslist.
I spent a lot of time looking at both the Sienna and Odyssey but the pricing difference in Atlanta for the same options (minus a few minor things each way) is between $3,500 and $4,000.
I've had it for a few days now and really like all the additional features, color is Silver Shadow Pearl. A very sharp looking car with good acceleration and a quiet ride.
The buying experience was easy starting with various internet quotes, I found a dealer that was about $1,000 less than any other local dealer.
Pkg #3
Fog lights
Mats
Tow Package
MSRP=$32,590
My price=29,678 + tax and title
for 24977+ tax on 11/25/09 with 1.9% APR for 60 months.
Dublin Toyota gave me a quote for $24988 but they did not have
the color I wanted.
MSRP is $41220
Current offer is $500 over invoice, $38,300 + tax, license,etc.
There are no rebate incentives in California.
Thoughts?
Btw, when people refer to OTD price, does it include tax and fees?
Thanks!
How on earth did they get 52k miles on a 2008?
Price is low for the year, high for the miles, so it must be fair.
Add (probably slightly higher) MSRP for the new model it will be flying out the door for and the difference will be substantial between new and old as is without any additional discounts.
I personally like this redesign a lot but I really expected a hybrid option instead of the underpowered four-cylinder engine that burns almost as much gas as the unchanged V6...
It's the cheapest way to get in a nearly new 2008, though.
Tough call. Good luck either way.
But let's keep in mind they said the price would be lower for the big 2.7l 4 banger. Mileage is +1 mpg city and +2 mpg highway.
The V6 is already so good it's hard to make any improvements at all.
If they really can lower the price, the 2.7l Sienna could compete with the Mazda5, Kia Rondo, and Dodge Journey. I think it would kill those, no offense to any of those brands (I own a Miata).
Highway vs city miles will make a difference in regards to brake wear, etc.
Will the seller allow a 3rd party inspection?
Car Fax?
The interior and exterior condition are probably cleaner than my 2009 since most agencies clean them up between rentals.
I recommended that my son purchase a 1991 Camry with 30K miles in 1994. He still has it today.
So you're probably right, transactions prices will be higher. No doubt. MSRP will also likely be higher.
When an LE gets a backup cam and a power hatch and 2 power doors, it may arguably be worth a lot more, though.
I'm very impressed with the update. All I really expected was the 6 speed, and big whoop, the 5 speed has been more reliable.
No discounts on the 2011? I am mad....I am really banking on the fact that I may be able to get one for about 1000 over the invoice...I don't want to pay anymore?
Is that how all new car launches are?
Is there any trick over there, any suggestion are welcome. Thanks,
Remember how long the Ody commanded full MSRP? My cousin bought a 2002 model and paid full MSRP for hers. 2 years later you could buy an EX-L for the price she paid on a plain LX.
Depends on demand, supply, and what the actual prices are.
I was shocked by the long list of upgrades, and I would be just as shocked if you can deal down that far in the first few months or so.
Wish we could afford a new Sienna or Odyssey, but the price is too steep for us right now. I live in the Pacific NW and there is huge demand for the Siennas and Odysseys. On the used market the cars list for well over KBB retail. I am in the process of getting a Certified 07 Sienna CE from a dealer out of California with only 40k miles on it for under Nada or KBB trade- in- value.
That car would sell for retail book up here since they seem to go out the door quickly when a dealer has a nice one. Its another story in Southern California where unemployment is sky high and Siennas are sitting on the car lots.
I used Authority Car Concierge Service to negotiate our deal and take care of the details including shipping. Even after their fees and shipping costs we are 2 or 3 thousand ahead. Not to mention I did not have to deal with the haggling hassle. Using somebody like this makes an interstate car buy easily do-able and while I haggle pretty well - these guys are pro's and they know the car business.
I read about Authority in the Edmounds tips and advice section. Just say'in its really good to have somebody working on your team to get you the best deal with less stress.
By the way, here is my deal-
07 Toyota Certified Seinna CE with 40k miles - 14,950
Shipping to my house in the Seattle area was a hair over $500.
