June 2009 Toyota Incentives on Land Cruiser

[kafka1983]

Guys,

My girlfriend needs to replace her current vehicle and I've suggested the 2009 Land Cruiser. We're test driving it later this week and I think she'll be hooked. It's going to be a little bit of a stretch for her to buy it if the incentives aren't good. It doesn't look like there were any incentives in May on the Land Cruiser in the New England region. I'm waiting to see what the June incentives will look like.

Does anybody have any information on the kinds of deals that have been offered on the 2009 Land Cruiser over the past couple of months? Anybody pay below invoice? It looks like people are paying about invoice when I price the Land Cruiser at Edmonds.

Thanks!

P.S. I just bought a new vehicle myself and got a great deal (well below invoice on a car that historically never gets discounted), but that dealer doesn't sell Toyotas.

I bought my LC in NEW in 2002. I was living an AL at the time and bought mine in Colombus Ohio. I found great deals on the Internet. Got the EXACT car I wanted at $6000 off. I actually had to wait a week for it to come from Japan, it had already been ordered and the dealer was advertising it before it arrived. I flew in, Signed the papers, and drove off in about an hour. No local dealer would budge a dollar. I loved the car so it was a fun drive home. You may want to look into that type option, it saved me thousands. There are a lot of dealers who sell new on Ebay and all kinds of other online places.

Thanks Les. I appreciate the info. I'll post what pricing the dealers are offering when I dig into it further later this week. In the meantime, if anybody else has any recent experiences, please let me know!

If you can wait a little longer, you may have a chance on finding a Certified Pre-Owned model. We picked up our 01 CPO (in 2004) & got a better warranty than new and the truck was less than half the new price.
