If you are buying the LE, Friday and Saturday newspaper. There are usually AD cars on the weekend selling for 18995+TTL. Also try to get those Asian newspapers. I am sure you'll get a good deal vs paying sticker of 22k+tax
I need some help and guidance too.
I'm planning to buy a brand new 2011 Camry SE. I spoke to a couple of dealers.
These are the features I want in my SE:
1. Leather interior.
2. Sunroof
3. Bluetooth
4. Smart Key (Push Start).
The best deal I was offered is $25,000. This is a 4 cylinder engine.
I recently started searching for deals. Looked like a good deal to me, but I want to search some more in the neighboring states to find out.
What do you all think if the above price?
Thanks!
J.

-No Push Button Start
MSRP- $31,608
Sale Price- $25,299 plus TTT
You must negotiate hard on the accessories and base unit and bring it to less than that . Ask for 23k and you should get it between 23 and 24k.
All the best.
Cheers....
Thanks you guys for the info.
The dealer and even some websites say that the $2000 or $1500 incentive ends on May 2nd, which means it is no longer valid!
Is this true?
I hope it extends longer.
I guess I gotta wait and see.
I was going to get Conicelli Toyota to price match to Fitz's price and while they were going to match Fitz, I wasn't going to get the 0% APR because they had the $1000 incentive. When I said how about you give me the 0% and the $500 that is on the site, they came right out and said "it is a dealer incentive and we don't have to give it out". I didn't buy the car because they tried to screw me for $500. I will wait and if they don't provide better incentives next month may buy from another manufacture.
MSRP : $23,490 { with alloy wheels(premium accessory package) + remote start }
Toyota's Rebate : $2000 ( or 0% APR for 60 months )
Toyota College Graduate Rebate : $1000
These two she got upfront without us even asking for it.
Final Sale price : $18,700
APR: 3.64% 48 months ( she didn't take the 0% offer even though they did pressure her to take it )
That's $4790 below the sticker price.
She had no idea about the invoice price.( she still doesn't). She just haggled for $18000 and finally got it for $700 more. She almost walked out twice only to be called back in.
And for all the EDMUNDS or TRUECAR fans out there.. NEVER EVER TAKE THEIR TMV OR BEST PRICE OR GREAT PRICE AS YOUR STARTING POINT FOR NEGOTIATION
also DONOT EVER BELIEVE THEIR INVOICE PRICES and consider it as the DEALER PRICE ie , the price the dealer pays toyota. There are lots of incentives that dealers get from toyota (for meeting targeted sales figure, customer satisfaction etc.) which the we buyers will never know. And among the two Edmunds is more closer to reality than truecar ever is. You can check that yourself.
Also Don't believe CARSDIRECT prices either You can always get a better deal if you have the patience and perseverance to send mails to 5-10 nearby dealers and make them compete for your business.
Its your Hard earned money. So dont be lazy and throw it away. And there is nothing to be ashamed of in bargaining for your car . What others think about you is not your concern. So haggle as hard as you can.
Check out link title. This is the Best site to go to before buying any car. Make sure you read up the articles by Mr James Bragg before you step into any car showroom.
I'll be very happy to give you the name of the dealer we bought the car from. You just need to ask
Thanks and have a great day.
Thanks, Rich

Total: $23,522.61
Down: $10k
1.9% for 60 months on the balance.
Per the invoice pricing, can I do better? I beleive the destination charge is fixed, can't do anything about that. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
“We haven’t announced the next-gen Camry, (but) I will tell you (the current) Camry is very close to the end of its lifecycle, and a fall introduction is a pretty good educated guess,” Bob Carter, Toyota group vice president and general manager, told Ward’s.
(To Moderator: This topic probably does not even belong here, but i did not know where else to put it)
the dealer is asking for $15K
I figured I'd start negotations at $13K and would be OK at paying up to $14K, or is $15K fair?
The car has under 20000 miles on it
Great forums! So, I am within 2 weeks of closing in on a 2011 Toyota Camry.
Truecar Pricing said I can get one for $21,400 with a Moonroof. A dealer contacted me in my area and said that this was the price plus tax, plate fees, etc. So, how much on top of the 6% tax should I expect to pay?
If Truecar gives me a price of $21,400 what would YOU expect for the total OUT THE DOOR price including everything?
Would it be unreasonable of me to hope to get the car out the door including tax, and ALL fees, for $22,800 as my final top price?
Keep that in mind because Toyota doesn't do a good job of telling you this until you are ready to buy it at the dealer.
I got a Camry XLE for $24770 plus Title, Tax and Doc fee (154) with MSRP of $28500. Also if you are a preferred owner, you will be getting $250 off.
For an LE, the best I got was $20490 for the base LE and with Bluetooth and Alloy Wheels the best I got was $20950. Hence decided for an XLE which is only a three grand more.
The prices I got was for 0% for 60 months. If you are a Student then you will get $1000 from this price.
I purchased my car at Naperville Toyota and they are very nice. I have gotten two cars from there and the service dept is awesome.
Also for accessories they will give you a 20 - 25% discount if you buy a car from them.
Just got a quote for a white 2011 camry xle i4 for $24,432 (plus $400 doc fee). Is this a good deal???? I live in greater Pheonix area. Please share advice and experiences!
I used truecar.com and this was the outcome: (I know I need to find out the finance rate they will offer, the last car I bought I was 0.9, I would like to get that kind of rate, but am guessing they may try to raise the price for this kind of rate?)
Factory Invoice: $25,682
Dealer Offer: - $1,250
Your Price: $24,432
thanks!
I was looking at used camry xle models also, however I am unfamilar with how to price used vehicles (besides using blue book etc). One local dealership has a 2007 xle, silver with 42k miles listed at $18,000.
Any idea how to negotiate on a used vehicle like that one?

Bring my total to finance to $21,540 at 0% finance rate. I feel this is not a good deal and i like know what you think. I am planning to go back to the dealer on Monday to cancel the deal. Do i have a grace period when i can cancel a car sale?
Help
I dont know about the millenium package (probably the GAP protection) but the price for LE should be fine if it is a special edition with heat and cool leather seats, moon roof, alloy wheels, anti theft system.
Otherwise it is $3000 more than what I have paid. I dont know about the cancellation of the deal but you can use BBB to get some benefits like getting extended warranty or purchasing service plan up front which I did as well to avoid overhead costs since the dealer might charge 15 hours instead of 10 hours of labor if you do not have the service contract.
Also when it is 0% why to bother much.
You don't appear to have enough details about the car that you bought, to know whether you got a good deal or not. It is further complicated by your trade in. You should have had it independently assessed/valued before you went to trade it in. Carmax for instance, will offer to buy your car, and the quote is typically good for 7 days, IIRC.
I don't know whether you can unwind the deal your signed or not, would depend on the state laws.
I am in the market for a 2011 Toyota Camry LE with a V-6 engine and auto transmission and have a couple of questions. I am looking for one in Texas.
a. Is finding a 2011 Camry LE V-6 in Texas difficult? I have been shopping around with a few dealerships and quite a few of them have gotten back saying it is hard to find that particular model in their stock. Is it true that procuring a 2011 V6 LE is that difficult?
b. Quite a few of the LE V6s on which I did get a quote seem to come pre-loaded with options? Is there not a market for someone who wants the reliability of a Camry with the power of a V-6 but no options? It seems I am being bound to the options. Is it always that for V-6s we have to have the options also?
I appreciate any responses I can get
It may be, that the Toyota website for your zipcode area doesn't have this capability. However, if you want to see how it works if your area is blocked out is put in 27614 as a zipcode.
I would think however, that if a person has the financial means to buy the larger engine, that they're going to want a comparably optioned vehicle as well. You may find it harder to sell in the future.
I was very interested in the V6 as well when we bought our 2007, until I extensively drove the I4.......and then bought an LE-I4. It's a great engine, and not once have I ever thought I absolutely needed more power. As far as I'm concerned, the V6 is not needed and save your money.
Good luck with whatever you choose.
