How much are you paying for your 2017 Tacoma?

I do too, have a Pro Grille in my computer room, its going on the 1st day!

 

Haha good thinking. I picked up various small things but pro grille and TRD rims are definitely going on in the spring.

 

TRD SPORT 4X4 DCSB I got just the standard tech package I did not need all that other stuff
tow package
34500 OTD

 

Hello Everyone,

Been a lurker here for awhile and I appreciate all the knowledge being shared by everyone in the forum. That said, I was wondering if anyone have any dealer/salesperson recommendations in San Francisco?

@kirros40 I'm looking to buy the same exact model. Would you mind sharing me via private message the dealerships in San Francisco that gave you the 37k quote? Thank you in advance!

Hank M.

 

Purchase date 5 January 2017

2017 TRD Sport 4x4 Access Cab V6 Automatic White
Sport Package
Premium Technology Package
Tow Package
Carpet Mats
Paint Protection
ToyoGuard Platinum
Nitro in Tires

MSRP $38,136.95
Doc Fee $649 not included in MSRP
$38,136.95+$649 =$38,785.95

$35,000 OTD before tax/license/title.
$38,785.95 - $35,000= $3785.95 Discount
$3,785.95/$38,785.95 = 9.7% Discount

The $35,000 price does include the dealer doc fee.
I could not pass up this deal but I had to go out of state to get it!

Dealer was Palmer Toyota in Mobile AL. They were eager/willing to negotiate!
Call Ann Phoutphong at 1-251-639-0800. She was wonderful to deal with.

This site has been very helpful in helping me craft what I believe is a good deal. Hopefully this info will help you.

 

What was your actual OTD price.

 

$35000. I have to pay taxes, title and license in Arkansas.

BTW I did negotiate the deal in December. Put down a deposit and picked it up on 5 Jan.

 

The interior is the same except for the seat colors, which a lot of people are covering up anyway on every model. What exactly do you think is different on the interior between an sr5 and a sport?

 

That's a huge wall of text comparing the wrong model. SR is different than sr5.

The main difference between the sr5 and sport are.
Headlights (sr5 used the parking lights as DRL rather than the LED), fog lights(sr5 is not wide angle), hood scoop, bed power outlet, wheels, push to start. There is a slight difference in the tech package since you can't get bsm in the sr5... You can get the upgraded stereo and parking sensors.

 

My bad, didn't realize the SR/sr5 difference on yotas specs in the brochure. So be it.

 

Just for folks info if they somehow can't download the ebrochure themselves:

 

Good point. There isn't really any differences between the sport and SR5 except a defferent radio setup with navigation standard and I heard you can get that same radio on the SR5 for extra.

Like you said the seats are light gray in the SR5 and dark gray in the sport.
Sport really only has exterior cosmetic upgrades with the fake hood scoop, the painted plastic bumper, and different wheels which I don't like anyway. I actually prefer the black grill on the SR5 and limited trims better than the chrome grill on the off road and sport trims. I just ordered a TRD pro grill for my truck which looks a lot better than the grill on it now.
Just installed nerf bars and tinted the front windows on mine. All that's left is the grill and the black TRD wheels and my truck is complete. In my opinion I would buy a SR5 over a sport and take the money you save and buy some running boards, nicer wheels, ting the front windows and lift it by 2 inches and the SR5 model would look better than a stock TRD sport model.

 

Let's don't let this thread go dormant....no activity since Saturday.

This is a very worthwhile forum and it sure helped me know what a good price on my new Tacoma was!!!

 

Has anyone completed a deal with Manhattan Beach through the Costco Auto Program? They quoted me Invoice + 250 as several dealers said that's not likely or barely have budged off MSRP.

 

@Gooney I don't know about that one in particular but my experience in September with my TRD OR was this:

#1 Costco auto program claimed $500 over invoice, but then also added some $925 costco admin fee. Thats the problem with negotiating on invoice pricing, they get you to agree to something like "invoice plus $500" then hit you with a crap-ton of admin fees.
#2 The "email a bunch of dealers for lowest OTD quote to order my config" technique detailed elsewhere resulted in OTD quotes substantially lower than the Costco price would have been OTD.
#3 A couple of dealers told me "nobody is selling these below MSRP"... while I had in hand an OTD quote for invoice+$500+TTL

Life's too short to play with dealers who just want to jack you around. Read up on the technique in #2. I've posted about it in this thread.

 

Thanks! Been searching for couple weeks now and barely getting anywhere on pricing. I'll look for your thread, but I think buying in SoCal is a different beast. Especially reading this forum since my search.

 

Yes, market conditions will vary by region. Particularly in terms of which models dealers are more flexible on. I seem to remember a number of SoCal folks getting deals from somewhere in NV but don't have any details. I could also be misremembering.

Here's the post I was referencing: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...your-2017-tacoma.444691/page-17#post-13205880

 

Just purchased a 17 Tacoma Trd Off road 4x4 with premium package on Friday the 13th lol for 37,900 out the door. Traded in my 13 Tacoma Trd sport 2wd with 40k miles and got 25,500 for it lol paid 29,800 drive out almost 4 years ago. -Houston, Texas

 

@Gooney I have a TRD Sport 4x4 DCLB being built right now through the Costco Program at Manhattan beach Toyota. I did what everyone suggests first. the send what i want to all dealers within 100 miles. I didn't get anything below $500 under MSRP. Most wouldn't go below MSRP. then, the second issue was they were all trying to sell me something "similar" to what i wanted. I had saved a response because i was saying it soo often. "I don't want something similar. i am about to spend close to $40k on a truck, i want exactly what i am asking for" i was so sick of them trying to shove a Short bed and not Quicksand color down my throat. those were things i specifically wanted. Long bed and quicksand (which are pretty impossible to find in southern california i now realize). so going with the costco program and manhattan beach toyota and having them build it to my specs, was perfect.

i worked with Ken Howard. good guy. khoward@manhattanbeachtoyota.com his cell is (310)951-2746
before tax im lookin at $36k. TRD Sport 4x4 DCLB, tow package, ton cover, all weather mats, black nerf bars.

i really could not get even close to that price outside costco program. dealerships around were asking for $38k + for something that wasn't even what i wanted.

 

Nice Friday the 13th was a lucky day for you. Lol!
I paid an out the door price of $37k on my TRD off road 4x4 and it doesn't have the premium tech package but it came with a tonneau cover.
Excellent deal on your trade too. $4300 in depreciation over 4 years is great you must of had low miles on it. I had a lease return so no trade in equity for me.
