G/f and I where at Vandegriff Toyota off of I-20 looking at Yaris LB auto with power package. Salesman we spoke to, Scott Harold, said if we finance 10k or less they give us 60 months of no interest. Sounds great to me, but it seems like they won't come down much from 16k or so. Built it online with 7% added for TTL and came out to $14,996. I'm a first time buyer. Is this the price I should haggal for, or is it to low?

Bill Jenkens was my salesman..he is honest, straightforward, and easy to negotiate with...car buying was actually fun. It sounds like Mckinney is out of your way, but I cant say enough nice things about Bill...you should at least give him a call, and see what he can do...

I purchased my Yaris LB from Toyota of Richardson through the sales of Sam Mansfield. The experience was great and I was in and out in a matter of 2 hours. :thumbsup:

DO NOT go to Sports City Toyota! Those people are known to be a bunch of crooks and I have filed several complaints through Toyota about them already. :evil:

bought mine from Aaron at Toyota of Plano. He is part of the internet sales team. Experience was great and would definitely refer him to anyone that wants to buy a Toyota.

I just got a price from Don Davis in DFW for $14500 (includes tax,title, etc) plus tinted windows & floor mats. Shoot me an email & maybe we could work out a bulk deal.

For the other people responding to this thread. How much did you get off MSRP?

Thanks
Jim

If you can get 1k off, your in great shape. That puts you into their holdback. $800, and your all the way into invoice- what I call an average deal.

$1000 off the sticker should be your goal.

Then their is the port options- that's where the profit just rolls on in.

Look at KBB.COM for invoice pricing.

Good luck.

because the yaris is such a cheap car to begin with, you most likely won't have a whole lot of room to negotiate. i think i got about $100 off msrp. this was in october of 06.

I did some internet quotes and got 14,2 -14,5. The 60 month no interest is bull. They tacked on what the interest would have been right onto the sticker price. I'm not sure if all the internet prices included tt&l. But now I know what they want for it and I can haggle from there. Car is for my girl friend so she gets final say. Were also looking at the honda fit. The Honda is very cheap, the doors look like they won't stand up to the wind. Atleast it's not a Kia I guess. Thanks for all the responces.

The total price for me was $12,250 and that was with the mats, radio upgrade, 15's and tint (20% if I remember right). Not bad. They did not have the Blazing Blue but I went with the Meteorite Silver :cool:

Like I said, cannot go wrong with Richardson. Ask for Sam Mansfield, he is in the internet sales department. Tell them Bradley Huddleston sent you... never know, may get a better deal.

Peace.

Thanks, I'll give him a call and see what deal he'll give us.

I actuall mentioned Bradley Huddlestons name & Sam said let him know he would give him $50 if the sale went through. Sam never called back with the price.

i'd be asking them about a referral program. i know toyota of plano will pay the referrer $100 if someone buys a car that was referred to them.

Damnit he better call you back... I could use $50 lol :headbang: I promised my daughter a trip to chucky cheeses for passing her 3rd grade TAKS test.

Did you specify a color? I can't remember the total price I paid... I didn't add the TT&L but who does. I traded in my 2001 corolla (thing was falling apart) so I also had around $1000 added on for the upside down but overall I got a very good deal.

You can also ask for Fabien who tends to tag team with Sam. Just don't let the finance rep get you with the warranty.

I did specify white. I've had a few dealers fail to call me back. Sam seemed interested and did remember you. I have a new quote of $14,400 (including TT&L) for a white Yaris with automatic, power package & mats. That is the best deal so far. I'll let you know if I hear back from Sam.

I went through Sam Mansfield at Toyota of Richardson and had a very easy buying experience. The dealership is exceptional and they treat you very well. It is simple no haggle. They give you a bottom line price and then you work out your trade in and your interest rate and your done. No tricks and no surprises.:thumbup:

I have to say Cowboy Toyota is a dump and Sport City Toyota also has received very negative feedback from me. They are very crooked at Sport City. Total waste of time. I walked out on the sales guy after they tried to double team me and told me lie after lie. Worst experience I have ever had at a dealship.

i had a horrible experience at toyota of grapevine. i will never ever refer anyone to those crooks.

they tried to con me into thinking my corolla was only worth $5000 which i already knew was BS. then they told me they would do me the favor of giving me $6000 if i paid full price for a yaris with the options THEY chose to have installed. i told the moron, "good day sir" and walked out. he had the audacity to follow me and say, "you'll never find a yaris for the price you want to pay. cya."

boycot these mofo's as if your life depended on it.

Sam sent a detailed breakdown of the cost of the Yaris. The price was $600 more than another deal I worked out ($15000 incl. TT&L). Also, it would take at least two weeks for delivery where the other Yaris will arrive next week.
The deal I worked out seemed too good to be true but I have faith in it since we left a deposit and agreed to specific terms.

I took one they had on the lot. Just happend that they had what I was looking for. Basically all I got was an auto transmission with an armrest and floor mats. I'll add the rest out of pocket and avoid paying the interest on it. I also went in the last day of the month and prepped them with e-mails before I went. If I was a little more patient I probably could have done better but the deal was right for my pocket book and there wasn't any bull#$%^

It does sound like Toyota of Richardson was very easy to deal with but my goal was to get the car at the lowest price. Every dealer I talked with was willing to sell the car for very close (within $100) of Toyota of Richardsons price. The dealer I'm working with now has agreed in writing to sell the car for more than $600 less than Sams price (I've been dealing with the sales manager). Of course I haven't taken delivery of the car so you never know what will happen in the end.

Good luck with it. I just have no patience and that probably works to the dealers advantage. Hope you get a great deal. Let us know what you end up with.

She got her Yaris yesterday & everything went smoothly. Every dealer around the DFW swore Toyota of FTW couldn't & wouldn't sell at the negotiated price - they would jack up the price at the last minute (all other dealers were $650 - $1500 more). I found out from another dealer later that Texas Toyota of Fort Worth has been having very low sales numbers so they are working amazing deals to sell new cars. There were more than 30 people scheduled on Sat to pick up new cars (the waiting room was packed). We dealt with Scott Bolin - sales manager. If you want a new Toyota, give them a try.
