Thanks for your assistance.
Yes that was with an excellent rating from Kelly Blue Book, with dealership tradein. Of course the private party trade in was much higher, and wish I new someone would've liked to buy it so I would have just have had to shop around for price. They always try to stick it to you on the trade in.

I put no money down but will be giving them a $7,800 refundable security deposit, (the proceeds from my trade-in), which I will get back at the end of the lease.
I am paying $1,000 up front which will cover registration, $400 bank fee, $410 first payment, plus some minor taxes and fees.
The monthly payment is $410.
I have two questions:
1. How is that monthly payment look?
2. They said that GAP coverage is not automatic with Toyota Financing and it is not the law in NJ that it must be included in all leases as it is in New York. They wanted to charge me $17 a month but I got it down to $10 a month (in addition to the $410).
Is this true about GAP coverage in NJ and Toyota Financing?
Thanks for the help
If you simply purchased a $31,000 XLE with a $2000 discount and had $8000 downpayment (your trade) then your payment would only be $406/month for 5 years. However in three years you would owe $9100 if you wanted to sell it. You own it! You drive all the miles you want with no penalty.
It appears that in essence you have indeed given them a $7800 down payment (not a security deposit) and they are simply guarenteeing they will see that much back in "value" when you give it back.
I don't know what your residual is, but if owning it for $400 a month means in 3 years it's yours if you pay off $9100 then I would want to compare that number with what they would allow me to purchase the car for at the end of my lease.
Now if you leased for $400 no money down and gave them the car back in 3 years then I'd go for that.
Also leases don't get tax credits on hybrids, not that you're interested in that.
I've always been interested in leasing but perhaps I just don't see the light in leasing. I would like to lease for 2 years max with 15,000 miles a year and keep a new car. However for my TCH I just purchased I need to keep it three years to keep the tax credits I'm claiming.
The lease route works for me because it makes it easier to deduct the expense for my business. A lease also allows me the option to give the car back if I am not happy with the car after 3 years or purchase it for about $17,500 which is an option since my son will be turning 17 in 3 years.
I purchased a Maxima 5 years ago and was not in love with it but would have had to take too big a hit if I sold it after 3 years so leasing is a little more attractive to me.
Lastly, when you put no money down with your lease and have gap insurance, (an absolute must for a lease), if the car is stolen or totaled, you are only out title & fees, (in my case the $1,000 which included my first payment) and payments you made and your insurance deductible. The GAP insurance takes care of the diference between your financial obligation and the insurance proceeds.
The downside to the lease for me is that I would have to watch the miles/yr or pay a big penalty.. Then again on a purchase if I only owed $9000 after 3 years and could sell it for $17,500,.... Oh well I guess I don't understand the business expense side of this.
Anyway, enjoy your Camry
From what I can tell, after reading thousands of posts... the car market is pretty competitive in California.. I don't think you'd have any trouble making a good deal out there..
Driving across the country wouldn't be a problem, but why put all those miles on your new car?

Maybe you could get a response by going through Toyota's own website?

My Hybrid only cost me $30,000 (got a $589 discount) and it's loaded (roof, Nav, leather....)Additionally I get $6300 in tax credits. My deal looks better to me every day.
The car arrived at the dealer last Friday, May 12 and they had to install the side mouldings and heated seats. Hence, they had the car for 7 days.
We get to the dealership and after about 45 minutes of NO ADDED value selling of the additional maintenance, etc., I just say, I want the car. This is at 4:30PM and we have a long weekend here in Canada. We get to the car and it is washed and sitting in the service area which is very dark. I check the exterior and it is free of scratches, etc and the ONLY thing that is missing is the aluminum pedals.
No problem.
WE get into the car and drive off. We hit the Expressway and are stuck in traffic with the Long weekend beach traffic and we notice that there is so much grit and dust in the car that everything you touch has a layer of it everywhere!
They did not even clean the car when it arrived at the dealership! Here in Canada, we pay over $1200 for dealer prep, delivery/freight and they only washed the outside!
Thanks Toyota! Maybe I was expecting more, YES I WAS!
I haven't named the dealer, as they are CLOSED on Saturday(Anyone ever heard of this?) and I can't speak to anyone until Tuesday.
Well, I have vented. Tomorrow, I will spend a couple of hours and clean up the car and decide where I will have this car serviced.
More to follow, but you will have to wait until Tuesday;
Base Model: $17733.00
Moonroof Package: Power Tilt/Slide: $752.00
Preferred Accessory Package(Mat + First Aid): $159
Destination Charge: $580
TDA: $499
Gasoline: $10
Dealer Holdback: $410
Shsl. Financial Reserve: $205.00
Total: $20348.00
Saleman say I can get the car for additional $300 + Total: $20348.00
Any device?
Thanks.
$20,648 would be $300 over dealer invoice. That's what they were going for 7 weeks ago.
I wanted to know if the remote starter is a dealer installed or factory installed option? I'm considering getting the LE with just the JBL stereo.
Thanks in advance

I was quoted a price on a 07 Camry recently over the phone at this dealership and was told that this was the priceI would pay when I came into the dealership.
When I arrived today, I went for a test drive and decided I really liked the camry. After we went to the salesman's desk, he came back with a printout of the alleged agreed price that I discussed I discussed over the phone with the interenet sales department.
Well, it turns out that the price on his printout approximately $1350 dollars more than what I had negociated over the phone.
Think it can't gey any worse, hold on to your hat.
The color I really liked wasn't in stock at theis dealer so I asked if they would order one for me. We are talking Base LE with the automatic.
The saleman goes to the manager, comes back and tells me that they can get one for me but it has the sunroof and I have to pay for it. So I tell the salesman that I would be willing to pay for the roof in order to get the color that I want so I ask him to find out the price of the car with the roof. The salesman goes to see the manager, comes back and tells me that the roof and just the roof adds another $1200 to the price of the car.
I will stay clear of this dealership and advise the same.
Hads a really bad experience with Boch Toyota in Norwood, MA yesterday regarding quoting one price over the phone and then selling for another price in person for $1333. more than I was quoted for an LE auto with no options. Boy did that piss me off.
Anyways, I went to another dealer today and got the Camry LE auto/no options for $18600. Im feeling really good about this price.
Word to the wise, Boch Toyota uses dishonest sales techniques over the phone and not worthy of my business.
First time poster here.
Could someone tell me what is a fair price for LE V6 in Seattle? How much over invoice?
(Options = JBL CD changer, vehicle stability control, moonroof, aluminium wheels)
Thanks.

In a recent JD Power study Toyota dealers ranked #33 out of 36 makes tracked based on dealership/sales experience.
Why anyone would want to continue to feed the Japanese when they view us as sheep just boggles the mind. :mad:

I don't care if a certain manufacturer's dealers are ranked 36 out of 36....if they make the best car at the best price for me IMO, they get my money. If someone's a jerk to me, I can be a jerk right back. It's not the car's fault.
For the record, I've never had a bad experience at a Toyota dealer and I've bought 2 new cars and 1 used car through two different Toyota dealerships in my "buying life" (four different if you count test drive experiences). I understand Toyota dealers have a bad rep, but they've always been fair to me.
Ira in Danvers and Boch on the automile have always been able to undercut any price I've been quoted elsewhere. They are by far the largest dealers in the region and probably have exactly what you want in stock at all times. I love getting them to bid against each other.
Uhhhh, remember too that many of these "Japanese" cars sold by the American dealers are made by American auto workers in plants located in America.
