my dealer has a '08 stickering at $73K and they'll sell it for $59 --

-- thoughts?

at least it's more reasonable than sticker - but i don't know how low i should go.

THANKS!
 
It is considered 1 year old now. So do not forget about depreciation.
 
First, Hi to all. This is my first post. I have been seeking prices on '08 models as well. I received the following two quotes:

* Sell price $64K for a $73K sticker
* Sell price $60K for a $71K sticker

Hope this helps.
 
so how much depreciation would you say for year 1?

the f*cking salesman told me the 2009s weren't for sale yet -- gotta love salespeople -- :|
 
Not sure, I would check ebay and see what is going on or New Cars, Used Cars, Car Reviews and Pricing - Edmunds.com and check true market value on a low mileage used 2008 and a new 2008. I heard they have been selling for invoice anyway so below invoice would be a good starting point.
 
Wow those are some great prices.....
 
here's the rig -- :D

In Australia its common practice to depreciate a vehicle for tax reasons at 18% purchase price the first yr.
 
59K looks very good. I just purchased one with a $74524 sticker for 59K (OTD price was 64K). It is a June 08 build so I'm very happy. They haggled for two days but then called me back and could not get me to sign fast enough. This happened the day before Toyota announced projected losses for the 1st time in 70+ yrs. I think they were given the ok to get as many 08s out the door as possible.

I bet you can get some additional goodies thrown in.
