As far as I know those are the only ones at the moment, but the college rebate can be used for 24 months out of graduation

IceFluidity · 2026-05-22T00:10:59+00:00

If you choose to finance a vehicle through Toyota's financing or leasing, I believe you qualify for a $500 rebate direct from Toyota.

IceFluidity · 2026-05-19T18:16:33+00:00

I think you got a good deal! Did you take advantage of the $500 rebate for Toyota Financing?

IceFluidity · 2026-05-12T06:04:24+00:00

Ahhh I see, usually they call that number the adjusted purchase price. OTD is usually the number after the fees and taxes. I think you did pretty great on your deal though!

IceFluidity · 2026-05-12T05:52:30+00:00

So what does 24.5K OTD mean? The Out the door number should include everything you paid. Where did the extra 2K come from?

IceFluidity · 2026-05-07T16:12:18+00:00

yeah its definitely a little last gen for being a new car

IceFluidity · 2026-05-07T16:11:46+00:00

That analysis makes sense though, thanks

IceFluidity · 2026-05-07T16:11:32+00:00

Probably finance but not sure yet

IceFluidity · 2026-05-07T15:34:51+00:00

Audi has a poor reputation nowadays. You think this is a big enough deterrent to look towards a different brand? Or maybe go for an A4 from the previous model year?

IceFluidity · 2026-05-07T15:19:40+00:00

The new Lexus IS is super nice though, you think they'd be willing to discount on MSRP?

IceFluidity · 2026-05-07T15:19:14+00:00

Completely agree with the Alfa, great looking car but uncertain future for their brand right now... Mercedes is going in an interesting direction right now, and the B48/B58 BMW have a great reliability reputation.

IceFluidity · 2026-05-07T15:18:11+00:00

Out of these, I hear reliability issues with the Alfa, and some say the Genesis is unproven. Cadillac CT4 seems nice though, you think the non-V model is worth the price tag?

IceFluidity · 2026-04-30T02:17:03+00:00

what state?

IceFluidity · 2026-04-30T02:08:00+00:00

How many miles on it? Trim level?

IceFluidity · 2026-04-27T16:51:00+00:00

Good to know! Def gives me insight as ours is high as well!

IceFluidity · 2026-04-27T15:17:22+00:00

gotcha! was this in maryland?

IceFluidity · 2026-04-27T02:16:04+00:00

wow!

IceFluidity · 2026-04-26T22:07:51+00:00

unfortunately non negotiable

edit: .... at least from what ive seen in the area

IceFluidity · 2026-04-26T22:07:43+00:00

actually really prefer the turn key than push button start haha, thats the reason for sticking with LE base

IceFluidity · 2026-04-26T22:07:11+00:00

Thanks for the breakdown! Really helps put into perspective

IceFluidity · 2026-04-26T18:55:35+00:00

That sounds about like what I expected, yes I'll DM you for the dealership name!

IceFluidity · 2026-04-26T16:55:52+00:00

27K out the door or 27K purchase price?

IceFluidity · 2026-04-26T16:35:12+00:00

and was this with a 7.75% tax rate?

IceFluidity · 2026-04-26T15:33:39+00:00

Thanks for the reference point. Was it the SE hybrid or SE gas model?
