I went in looking at a Yaris, but this was only $1,500 more than a stripped down Yaris, and from what I hear will get about the same MPG. Too bad they stuck the Scion tranny on the Yaris instead of the Echo tranny. It really lowered the real world MPG of the Yaris.
I was wondering if I got a good deal till I went to www.kbb.com and saw that a used 05 had a retail price of more than I paid for my 06, not including my warranty...:) Got it at Spartan Toyota in Lansing, MI - Joe
What is a good deal for a base automatic CE?
Corolla CE with AT, no power locks or windows options available here in South Cal.
Mats were provided with first free oil change
price was $13100 + TT&L (L.A. county tax rate)
OTD = $14,400
would like to know if someone else in California has gotten a better deal
Am planning to go for it within a week.
pl advise.
Pay attention to newspaper I would say. Whenever there is a deal, go and buy it.

How much should I pay before tax? And how much should I pay for total OTD price?
I live in South Florida.
One dealer offered $14,954.77 (everything included) and another one offered $14,900.00
Thank you
Like a few others I'm looking for a 06 corolla CE with just automatic, I'm quoted between $14,400- $14800 + TTL.
Maybe I don't know how to haggled but dealers basically ignore me or come down about $50 bucks when I try to pit them against one another.
I went in looking at the Yaris, but this was only $1,500 more than a stripped Yaris, and this had a CD changer, keyless entry, alarms, etc.. I couldn't turn it down. - Joe
SET Administration Fee - $414
SET Destination Charge - $45
What is this for?
Why would anybody pay it?
Jim
This was at Austin,TX and bought in Jan06.
You have room to negotiate for another $200 as my title document says the price paid is 14945(rest is document fee ).
So stick to 14,900-15,000 OTD.
More questions: Did they offer you any special finance rate?
Mike
Can you tell me which dealer in Houston you got the deal?
Thanks
Mike
Any idea what that rebate will increase to in the coming months before the debut of the '07 Corolla? I want to buy but waiting for the right time to get the best price and then pull the trigger.
Anti-Lock Brakes
Power Tilt/Slide Moonroof with inner mirror and driver and passenger side and curtain airbags
The extra value package #1 which includes 15" Alloy Wheels w/P195/65P15 tires, Rear Spoiler, Power windows, Keyless entry and cruise control
Carpet floor mats as well as the trunk mat
The all weather guard package
Last but not least something similiar to the Viper security system and not the cheap one that comes with the car.
With the items listed above I am asking if anyone knows for sure what the lowest price I should pay for this car. No offense but I ask that only those people who know for sure what I should pay or have already purchased a car like this with these options please respond to my question. Thanks to all and safe driving.
@ Claremont Toyota just outside Los Angeles. Here is the deal that I got:
2006 Toyota Corolla LE Phantom Gray
Options:
BE Side Airbags
VJ JBL Value Package
CT Carpet Floor Trunk Mat Set
Total Sticker: $18,087.00
My Cost with the $500 Rebate: $15,034 (Plus Tax & License)
Note: I believe I got this deal by playing Claremont Toyota against there competitor Longo Toyota (#1 in the nation). One more thing...it took about 3 hours to get this deal.
To my surprise, my original quote from Longo, was for an LE Corolla without (BE) Side Airbags and (VJ) JBL Value Package for $15,034. So in the end Claremont Toyota ended up beating Longo. But it was a hard fight! The time that I spend aside, I had a good experience with Claremont Toyota. The sales guy was very straight up with me, and the finance guy did not try to pressure me into buying the extended warranty or the LO-JACK option. Turns out that Claremont Toyota gives free oil changes for life with a purchase of a new car. So overall I’m happy with my experience with Claremont. Ill always go to Longo first and then shop their quote around to see if anybody wants my business bad enough.
Good luck!
If it goes through I believe I got an absolute steal (regardless of when it was manufactured and how long it's on the lot). It would've been tough to by a Cobalt with all the rebates for that $. Thanks.
options include:
FE 50 state emission
EV am/fm/6 disc in-dash w/6 speakers
CK all weather package
VP extra value package #1
15" alloy wheels w/195/65/15tires
rear spoiler, power windows, keyless entry
and cruise control
CF carpet floor mats (4pc.set)
i tough i did good on this one can anyone tell me if its a good deal or i could have done better.
ALL WEATHER GUARD PACKAGE
ANTILOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
CARPET FLOOR TRUNK MAT SET
EXTRA VALUE PACKAGE #1 (INCLUDES CRUISE CONTROL, STEERING WHEEL MOUNTED CRUISE CONTROLS, POWER WINDOWS WITH DRIVER'S SIDE 1-TOUCH DOWN, REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY, COLOR KEYED REAR SPOILER AND ALLOY WHEELS.)
