How Much Should I Pay: 2008 Toyota RAV4

Question From Clare: I am wondering if I received a good deal in the quote I was offered today. Here are the specifics:

Limited 4×4 v6 in Blizzard Pearl with the following options:
Third row
JBL AM/FM
Daytime Running Lights
Moonroof
Towing Prep Package
Mudguard
Carpet Floor Mats

for $29,095. Given that it is the end of the model year, I feel like it is at least $1,000 too high and I should be able to get it closer to $27,500 - 28,000? Am I off base? Also, is $475 for advertising dealer fee pretty standard for Toyota dealers?

How do you apply these prices?

Print out all the blue links and take them to your local Toyota dealerships. But before you go, we highly recommend you call and make an appointment to see the Internet Sales/Fleet Manager because he/she should know exactly what you’re talking about. Avoid the floor salesmen, head straight to the Internet Sales Manager.

If they don’t believe your prices, ask to use one of their computers so they can see where these figures came from. It’ll be impossible for them to doubt you because you’re pulling up a Toyota dealership’s website and checking their inventory. Remember, cars are a commodity so these prices apply everywhere in the U.S. This car in Florida should cost the same in California. The taxes vary by state.
