Always an interesting discussion...... Rarely do responses convey the whole picture.

How much above/below invoice.
How much paid for dealer installed options (alarm, tint, paint sealant, etc.)
How much for "Doc fees" (a personal pet peeve)
How much for extended warranty, replacement insurance, end-of-the-world coverage and any thing else that the "finance guy" convinces the buyer that they would be a fool to not "take advantage of"

What have I missed???

basically jus wanna know how much below msrp w/o added options etc
 
Window sticker was $37k, $38k with dealer options, I paid $33,700 OTD in Florida.

True car was what I used to negotiate, plus went in late in the day during a rainstorm and they wanted to deal.

I bought an SR5 4x4
 
You got some good answers. Prices seem to be variable by region. I couldn't get the dealers in my area to move much on price. I drove 30 mins North (across a state line) and saved a couple of thousand. I would also negotiate with more than one dealer to see who is willing to move for you.

End of month, holiday month, and winter. There's a chance they're hungry to hit their monthly quota of cars which can drive up bargaining. And if you belong to Costco you may as well check their pricing. You never know...
 
truecar.com is a good resource for pricing, although they are out of whack on their TRD Pro pricing. (Try finding a dealer that even has one, let alone one that is willing to sell one at MSRP or below!) Prices will also vary by region, but I know that around me (SoCal) a 2015 Limited, Trail, or SR5 can probably be had for anywhere from MSRP to about $3000 under sticker depending on the dealer. $1,500 under MSRP seems fairly easy to get from many dealers if you are persistent, while $3,000 or maybe a little more under is possible, but more difficult to obtain from most dealers. In SoCal, stock is relatively low while demand is consistent and dealers know that if they don't sell you a 4Runner today at MSRP, someone will buy it tomorrow for that.

It's good you're not looking for a TRD Pro because in SoCal MSRP or under is nearly impossible to find unless the dealer is totally clueless like mine was. From the quotes I've gotten, a "good" price in SoCal on a TRD Pro is $3,000 over sticker, $5,000 over sticker is about average, and $7,000-$10,000 is on the high side, but many dealers are getting that for them, which I personally think is too much, but clearly some people disagree. Having just returned from the LA Auto Show and looking at the various offerings and MSRPs, $42,000 MSRP for a TRD Pro with no options is a steal.

ya I've heard some outrageous quotes for them but i can definitely get 1 for msrp, its actually for my lady and although we both love the pro her mom is handicapped and needs it to be as low as possible.
 
When I ordered my 15 I paid 200 over invoice. For that I got the exact color combo I wanted and great service. They gave me a copy of the invoice and it had right at 3k mark up. Good luck!
 
so far the best prices i can get are invoice on the 2015 Trail editions

Did you ask the dealer what their DOC fee was? I generally consider invoice minus doc fee as a reasonable starting point for current model years of vehicles that are in reasonable demand relative to supply.

i didn't but i told another dealer that i was getting invoice and he beat it by $500 under invoice, I'm going in tomorrow to finalize the deal on a black TE premium
 
Question?

2015 White TE Premium with KDSS, floor mats, chrome pipe, remote start. $39968 out the door price. Bargain more or seems good to go?
 
Bargain. I got mine for $2k less without the chrome, the starter, and the mats. tyeres probably $400 of parts there, so $39K is where I would want to be max. Also, if you can skip the starter, do it and go aftermarket. If that works, negotiate lower than $39K.

Why do you guys "need" an SUV? I'd strongly consider looking into the Highlander as the step-in height is much lower.
 
$28750 for a Demo-left over 2014 in super-white SR5...with 20k on the clocks

it is missing a few things...passenger seat is NOT power, no moon roof, no nav, no turn signals in mirrors...but it does have entune with JBL audio, 3rd row, all the other normal things, spoiler, de-icer if that counts...

Thanks for the advise! Will keep it at a little longer then. :tea:
