I got my SR5 today... here is how much i paid

Thanks guys, I was totally planning on buying the silver SR5 I was going to test drive, but I saw a blizzard pearl 4Runner (for the first time) in the showroom and feel in love with the color. I grew up in the middle east so white vehicles were a necessity. Picking it up today, can't wait!

:)
cool,,, I also was planning on the silver one,,,, but fall in love with BP....
how much did u pay in total (out of the door) ?
 
Congrats on the new 5 Gen. The new body is starting to grow on me and my 4th is paid off. Hum, what should one do? : )

how much did u pay in total (out of the door) ?

It was $34155 out the door. Still have to register which is going to be another $600-800... My tax rate was really low (4%) bc of where it's registered. That saved me an extra $1200. I love the BP. Not sure if it will look as rugged as the grey/black/etcs offroading but I'll just have to find out for myself...

my out-of-the-door price included EVERYTHING (even one week of insurance) and the 8% tax.
 
Those of you negotiating $34k OTD for a $36k MSRP vehicle are doing pretty good, IMO. My OTD on my $36k SR5 was $33,800ish and I'm a Toyota employee.
 
Does your out the door price include tax? I'm looking at a 2011 SR5 in Fort Wayne and the MSRP is $36,600 and they have offered it to me for $32,189 including license and doc, but not tax.

Buying from Evan's or Fort Wayne Toyota? Got mine from Fort Wayne Toyota and had a good experience with them.

Due to the different tax rates, licensing fees, etc, comparing OTD price across state lines is futile.

In some parts of CA, your sales tax is over 10%. Here in AZ, I live in a 8.2% tax jurisdiction, but the dealer I bought it from is in a 9.3% tax jurisdiction and you pay tax where you buy, not where you register. The Vehicle License tax here in AZ is 2% of the car value the first year.

My total Taxes, title and license for a 2011 SR5 was $3,650. :redbrick::jaw drop:

Tonight I bought a 2011 SR5 4x4 36,345 MSRP and before the aforementioned fleecing, I pd. $32,100 + a $400 doc fee = $32,500. Add taxes and I was back up to the EXACT MSRP price. WOOOHOOOOO!!!!!!!

If I would have purchased the car in Oregon my tax would have been ZERO.

Were it not for my bankrupt state, I thought I got a good deal.

congrats!!!! yes i agree with you. my point is to try to get the best possible deal, and at the end of the day when you pay 35+ K, a few hundred extra will not make a big difference.
 
you pay tax where you buy, not where you register.

I wish this were true in Massachusetts (aka - Tax-achusetts). I paid 6.25% (and I will continue to pay an annual excise tax). I live within 30 Minutes of "Tax Free NH". Unfortunately, automobiles purchased by Mass residents are taxable in Mass.

If I keep my T4R for another 10 years (as my last T4R), my effective tax rate (Sales Tax + 10 years of excise tax) is effectively ~15%.

I picked up my 2011 Mag Grey SR5 (CP, DJ, EC, TI, R6, 3T, 5A, CF) in September as follows (No Trade):
Sticker $38,947.00
Invoice $35,014.00

My Price $34,014.00
Tax $2,125.88
OTD $36,139.88

10 Years of Excise Tax = $3,164 (NPV ~ $3,000)

Total Tax = ~ $6K on $34.0K = 15%

I should have explained myself. I went through this in my head, but didn't put it on paper very well. If you buy a car within the same state, you pay tax where you buy the car (city A), not where you register the car (city B). If you buy a car out of state, you generally pay taxes in the state you buy it in, and get a "Credit" in your state against taxes owed (you buy in TX with a 6% tax rate and register in AZ with a 9% tax rate, you pay 6% in TX and 3% in AZ). If you buy a car in a state with higher taxes, you DON'T get a refund (Buy a car in CA with 10% tax, register in Oregon with 0% tax, you don't get your money back from paying CA tax).

That is why I like to compare apples to apples - price pd vs MSRP. You got a great deal, 1k under invoice. The rest of the stuff depends solely on your state's legislators.

I realize it is different in different states. Most of us live in sane states, though, so the ballpark OTD is pretty relevant. ;) We pay 5% sales tax in WV.
 
Hello everyone. I just want to thank everyone for your help in answering my questions. I just bought my 2011 SR5 with the following options:

4X4
Blizzard Pearl
DJ package mp3 cd ..... bluetooth ... etc
Convenience Package: moonroof, AC outlets ..... etc
Sport fabric-trimmed 8-way ... etc
third row seat 50/50
carpet floor mat and cargo mat
running boards
remote engine start.

The MSRP was 36600

I paid 35600 OUT OF THE DOOR. that is more than 1000 below INVOICE.

I got it in Chicago. I am posting these details/pricing because i think i got a good deal and i want everyone who is planning to get his 4R to be informed that you can easily go 1000 below the invoice price, just be determined, informed, and tough during the negotiations.
:)

I just bought mine on black friday. I have everything you describe, minus the remote start, add Toyo Elite Guard:

$32,339.97 out the door (includes tax/tag/title). Got mine in Greer, SC.

4X4 SR5
Classic Metallic Silver
DJ package mp3 cd ..... bluetooth ... etc
Convenience Package: moonroof, AC outlets ..... etc
Sport fabric-trimmed 8-way ... etc
third row seat 50/50
carpet floor mat and cargo mat
running boards

This is pretty AMAZING. Your sales tax is 5%, so you paid approx. $30,800 before tax for an 2011 SR5 4x4 with an MSRP of $36,600. WOW!!!!! - $6,000 below MSRP.:bravo:

I need to take you with me if I ever need to negotiate anything.
 
Just got my CS SR5 (premium interior, etc) for $36k OTD here in Northern IL ( Rockford), but that included the 8year 125k extended Toyota warranty. Could have haggled a bit more but time was an issue. I'm super stoked to have a 4runner again, grew up in my parents 89 and have wanted one since :)
