A good starting point is www.carsdirect.com. Try and configure the corolla you like, then see if your dealer can beat the price for a similarly equipped car. That shouldn't be a big problem since corolla is a mass volume econobox.

Obviously the S will cost you more.

Thank you for some replies.
Let be more specific.
I am trying to decide between

LE w/auto
50 state emissions (FE)
All weather guard package (CK)
Anti-lock brake system (AB)
Audio value package includes: (VV)
Driver & passenger side airbags (BE)
Inv - $15,849 MSRP - $17,520
and
S w/auto
50 state emissions (FE)
All weather guard package (CK)
Am/fm/cass/6 disc in-dash cd w/6 speakers (EV)
Anti-lock brake system (AB)
Extra value package #1 includes: (VP)
Inv - $15,918 MSRP - $17,600

I know S would be better choice. Is it real to get it for $16,000 + Tax + DMV. or am I dreaming? I assume S would be in demand so dealers would not negotiate much on it. I have not gone to dealer yet but I'm planning to go this week. They always ask how much you would like to spend how much a month you want to pay. I was hopping someone here had buying experience in NY area recently (or anywhere).

Thanks for any info.

Considering how little markup there is on the vehicle, I'd say you're dreaming at getting it for $16k. The guy selling you the car has to put a roof over his head. I'd be very surprised if you got it for under $17.

I just bought one (well, it comes in a week or so). S model. Dealer would take $1K off MSRP. Thats it, that all. Tried another dealer and they did $800 off. In my area (NC), that was all that I could do. Couldn't even get the outrageous $150 carpets thrown in. Sheesh.
I could get a Ford Focus for $3-4K off MSRP. So it's hard paying close to sticker......but you should look at the trade value for the Ford after a few years. You'd be crazy to pay anywhere near the MSRP after it devalues like that. The Toy, I hope, isn't quite as radical at depreciation.

The CE is the same car and the lightest of the bunch. (I'd get a stick CE or an XRS if I had the dough but that's me)
If you want the options go with the LE.
If you want the looks go with the S.
