Added options were 3M window tint, cross bars, mud guards, and premium carpet mat set (including cargo mat)
Got the price at or below Edmunds and Truecar, so pretty happy with it.
Purchased at All Star Toyota in Alexandria, LA. Salesman and finance guy were great to deal with, didn't push us on extended warranty or GAP, we told them we didn't want it, they said are you sure, we said yes, that was that.
So far I have received $37800 OTD (With 8.75% Tax & Fees) for 2013 SE AWD with Navigation, Carpet Mats & Cross bar from one dealer in Northern California.
Do you think its a good deal? If not then what will be the best number I can offer to dealer.
Thanks
. True car shows invoice rate 32500 no tax incl but dealer says it does not account for floor carpet etc so we cannot give that price
The dealer is Prime toyota route 2, Lancaster
will send you more if you have e-mail.
Is this is a good deal?
The total comes to approx $4k OTD plus $338 monthly = $16168 over the 3 year period.
What should I consider when leasing?
Thanks y'all!
But I did not think that Toyota offered leather and DVD entertainment systems on their base model. For that don't you have to move up to their Limited model? In which case, that's gonna run you A LOT more than your base model.
You need to clarify the model/options of the vehicle, get the vehicle's selling price and MSRP, the money factor being offered, and the residual. That will allow folks here to better advise as to whether it's a good deal or not.
Anyways, I ended up with buying an SE trim of the car. I am going to mention that in my next post.
1. Running Boards
2. 3M window tint
3. Cross bars
4. Mud guards
5. Premium carpet mat set (including cargo mat)
Also included is the Rear roof mounted DVD entertainment system. The color is Blizzard Pearl and the interior is Beige.
The MSRP sticker price was: $36,809
My out the door price is $34,900 (Sales Tax is 6.5%).
Expert opinion. Is this a good price?
Does it have leather and heated front seats? navigation and entune?
DVD entertainment is an $1800 options. However, uou can buy genuine toyota parts and install mud guards and cross bars by yourself.
It comes with Leather trim and heated driver and front row passenger seats. I do not know where I mentioned $34,809. I paid total $34,900 out of door and that includes factory OEM roof mounted DVD Rear entertainment system (this will be fitted on Tuesday).
Mud Guards and Cross bars were included in the price mentioned above.
Sticker price $38,100
$500 down
$1300 credit for trade-in
Money factor 0001
Monthly payment is $450 for 36 months with 15k miles/year, added on $5/month excess wear and tear protection which comes out to $180 for 3 years.
MA sales tax 6.25%
Got out of the door price 38500. Looked like a good deal.
Everything is fine with the car except the fuel mileage
I am getting 14mpgs in the city I use shell 93 from the day one.
Anybody else having similar problems ??
The Highlander is a very nice vehicle though. I think its better looking than our Pilot. We looked at a Highlander before we bought our Pilot. After it was all said & done, size matters. Our Pilot is something like 12" longer than the Toyota.

I have no experiencing buying car but I bought my first 2013 Toyota Highlander LE Plus with 4WD, in Blizzard Pearl, with mud flaps
MSRP: $35327
ePrice: $30651
They took off $395 because I refused to pay for Blizzard Pearl's extra fee.
Negotiated to: 33,000.99 OTD
We took the $2000 incentive with a $2300 trade-in credit
Total:$28,7000
This took 6 hours straight of dealing and I'm not sure if we came out on top. Any opinions?
I would say you did great. 31k OTD for a 2013 Highlander LE Plus 4WD. I got a 2014 LE Plus 4wd for 4k more!
You got a good deal. Congratulations! Could you please share with us from where you got the $2000 incentive?
What do you mean by ePrice?
I'm seeing in the paper today at Gilroy Honda (San Jose, ca) $6,488 off all their 2013 Highlander's. they've got 7 in stock. Since I have a relatively old SUV from 2004, I can't see paying the price they're asking for the newer 2014 models. It's just too tempting to upgrade my ride at the blow out prices for the 2013 TH. I test drove the 2014 - think it's an impressive car, but the 2013 Highlander is such an upgrade from my 2004 pilot. Other dealers closer to home are offer $5,000 off MSRP, but I'm guessing they'd match the Gilroy offer if they really want to unload their 2013 inventory. What do you think? I just don't see the 2014 offering much with discounts in the near future.
Alright people...I finally got my 2013 Highlander base model for, what I feel, was a steal! I was able to lease it for $0 down and $264/month for 24 months with a $350 disposition fee due at the end of the lease. I calculated backwards and think the sale price worked out to be $24,550 on the a MSRP of $30,025. This is the absolute best deal I could find on the car and bought it from a dealer 1.5 hrs. outside of Houston since the "city" dealers didn't want to negotiate much because they are in a high demand area. The dealer was nice enough to deliver the car to me and told me that they do this often since they sell mostly over the internet. The best offer I go in Houston was $364/month for the same car. I suggest that everyone should get the best quote from their nearest dealer and then call up dealers outside major cities as they are willing to work on smaller margins. Don't believe a word of what these dealers tell you. Things like "I'll be losing money if I sell below this price", "I'm down to my nubs on this price, Can't go lower". It's all BS. I beat the "down to my nubs price" by $2400!!!
