How does Toyota benefit from dealers charging over MSRP?

1 Like

Yeah it makes no sense, if they sell fewer to dealers at (assuming) the same price then their profits are way down

How is any of this relevant to my thread! :joy: please make your own post I donā€™t speak for Toyota corporate

Toyota can sell every sienna (as well as many other models) they can make, if they could make more cars they would. They like money like all corporations.

hi, is this deal or similar deal available? I am living in LA too, thanks

Definitely wait until July or August. Dealers are filling up with inventory nationwide. The only dealer that actually is not having that problem is Toyota. But if you are willing to do business with another manufacture, I am betting that Ford is going to have the first wave of fantastic leasing and purchasing. The Ford trucks nationwide before Covid were on dealers lots an average of 26 days before they were sold. Currently that number is at over 200 nationwide on average. Some vehicles by Ford take over 300 days on a dealers lot to sell.

When I called to extend my lease, I was told that its free money to them. It doesnā€™t bring the residual down. So its like youā€™re just renting it but not gaining any equity. Did they tell you anything like this? I was also told I could only go 4 months max. I have it through SETF. I also pay $383 on a 2020 Tundra SR5.

Through TFS?

South East Toyota Finance?

Yup. SETF. Does TFS do things different?

I wouldnā€™t think so. My lease was through Ally bank. Your 2020 tundra for $383 per month, Was the tax included in that monthly payment?

Can you guys have this convo in PM please. This is a broker pageā€¦

I googled MMR and have a very basic understanding - but do you mind explaining how exactly an individual can use that value for research purposes as well as negotiating a car lease or trade in?

Also, how do you get access to the data?

If preowned ones are selling at wholesale auction for 86-95k it would stand to reason that getting a brand new one at 88k is a good deal. Thatā€™s how iā€™d use it for research. Need a dealer license for access

Can you send me more details? NYC based

Worked with District Cars here this week. Heā€™s great. I got my C40 with no issues and he followed up with dealer when I told him about upsell. Great deal, and a pleasure to work with.

Afternoon All!

Currently leasing a 21 Ram 1500 Big Horn Quad Cab. 30 months left on the 48 mo lease with Ally. Aside from not being happy with my payment and it being through ally, Iā€™d like to get out of the quad to get into a crew cab. Iā€™ve tried a couple dealers, $42500 payoff puts me under water when the max theyā€™re offering is $36500 for the trade in. Seems like getting into a new lease isnā€™t an option since the payments will be easily above $1000 for a big horn crew cab. Any ideas?!?
