How Much Should I Pay: 2008 Toyota Highlander Hybrid

Question From Heidi: What is the invoice price for this vehicle …under 25K miles?

Queen of the Road: Hi Heidi. Welcome to AutoBragBlog! I can get you 2008s, but 2009s are unattainable at the moment.

For a 2008 Toyota Highlander 4WD V6 Hybrid with 25,000 miles, wholesale prices range from $26,700 (being in above average condition) to $25,500 (being in average condition) and $24,200 (being in below average condition).

A fair range for a dealership sell it for +12%-14% more than wholesale, so their estimated retail prices could range from $26,700 to $29,500. A private seller will usually aim to sell it for 5%-10%.

Check the carfax and do plenty of research on the history of the vehicle. Ask for their maintenance records. You can even bring a mechanic for a brief inspection. Here’s a good article to read before continuing: Car Buying Tips From An Insider. Let me know if you have any further car questions.

Good luck and keep us posted on how the purchase goes!
