Re: Delayed Delivery [cmsgtz]

I bought a car at Toyota of Runnemede in NJ a few weeks back. I was told that they would have no problems finding the car I wanted. I wanted a Camry with black leather seats. When I showed up the next week to pick up the car, they tried to send me home in one with light gray leather seats. When I refused to take it, they told me that it would be really hard to find the car that I wanted because I wanted so many options. I had wanted GPS. They told me I couldn't have that in a 4 cylinder. I wanted Sirius. They told me that it would take too long and that it would be cheaper to get it myself. So basically, all I was getting was an SE with black leather seats. It's been weeks and now they claim that I can't get it because of some strike going on in NY. :mad: :cry: At this point, I wish I had purchased a Honda.

Re: XLE with Package 3 [kwharton]

That was a very good deal...but that included the 1250 rebate instead of the 0% for 48 mos... I took that to two dealers today in South Jersey and they couldn't come close to it with the 0%. Cherry Hill Toyota was pretty tough...and the sales manager was a gold chained Italian tough guy who tried a little bit of intimidation. When I didn't go for his "final offer", he told the salesman to "let me go to VA". That kinda sealed the deal for me there. Did settle on one dealer cause they worked with me...Toyota of Runnemede. Finally got a Nautical Blue XLE for 31,829 OTD after getting them to bump my trade up to 2350. I don't have my paperwork in front of me, but I think the car itself was 29949 or something like that. Exhausting experience, but happy now. I don't know...I was able to sneak a peak at the invoice my salesman had (he really wasn't the brightest bulb, but he was a nice enough guy), and after all the taxes and fees invloved and dealer holdbacks, I think their cost was 30607...so they made 1222 off me or like 4%. Seeing that invoice gave me the impetus to push for that last 1%. Hmm...come to think of it, maybe he LET me see the invoice! Maybe he was stupid like a fox...anyway, I feel like I did get a good deal, and I guess that's the bottom line. I did buy the 7/75k warranty cause the L&I guy said it was fully refundable if we don't use it. I really don't expect to use it, so that was a pretty big deal... It also covers blowout on the tires, and gives you a $30/day rental car for any covered repairs. It started at 2195, but I "stole" it for 1495...LOL! I'm sure they got me on that...but I couldn't find too many postings on Toyota extended warranties so I didn't know what to compare it to. The fact that I get that 1495 back was a big deal if I don't use it 7 years from now. Thanks to all for their posts...they helped. I hope this helps someone else.

The dealership sent an "Vehicle Inquiry Report" and I cut/paste partial email (related to prices) below. Besides 2% dealer invoice and Dealer Holdback, What are TDA and Whsl. Financial Reserve?

Toyota of Runnemede, NJ - AAA auto buying program

by ocuihs on Tue Apr 24 18:57:46 PDT 2007

this evening, spoke to the dealership's internet department, stated AAA prices at 3% above invoice. This dealership's internet department prices at 2% above inovice. the dealership's internet prices for 2007 Prius BASE model with package option # 5 (NL) - $25053 + tax + tags + $96 doc fees. We don't think it's a good deal after reading this board messages. Also with Tier I+ credit rating, rates near 7.9% for 60 months from Toyota Financial Services!? Also with package # 5 with BASE model, per Toyota.com, the discount is at $2,000. The internet rep stated, the MSRP/invoices have been "adjusted" accordingly. We were thinking with BASE model + package # 5 should be around $23,500 before taxes/tags/doc fees. Please give us your opinions/feedbacks.
