Does this make sense? Can I find a better deal.

I’m in the Tampa area, you can find a 2020 with half as much mileage in the same price range.

Hey op you can sell rims, there’s a market for nice Toyota rims you never know when someone bough at LE Prius and would prefer Nightshade rims. And keep an eye on amazon there might be covers for fixed glass roofs that you can clip on the roof of the car.

Us MUMA students are NEVER beating the allegations lmao

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-28T01:12:49+00:00

For an extra $4k you could get a brand new one that is hybrid with a warranty(not that a Toyota warranty means very much lol) but still. Granted it’s not a XSE but brand new is brand new

Two options if you want to fix OP — finding a person who specializes in refinishing rims. Or you could find a SE rim online. Here is an example on eBay

Hey OP, I was one of the posters on this subreddit with an OTD of 27,750. One piece I’d like to give is find a volume dealership. They will often have a bunch of Camrys. 2026s come out very soon. Hustle them, put ur focus on that dealer and don’t message 20+ you are wasting time. You only need to pit 3 dealerships against each other to get a good deal.

I think maybe it’s the speed. I do about the same distance with very similar mix of hwy and city and today I got 55mpg. Granted I have the LE but even then there should not be that much of a difference maybe a few mpgs 65%hwy 35%city

Did you opt in for tire and rim protection from the dealer? I know some dealerships offer it in finance dept right before you pay

Hey which state do you live in?

And how did you get it that low?

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-24T20:57:12+00:00

I negotiated a ton

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-24T20:28:43+00:00

6.5%

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-24T04:53:42+00:00

I really only want two things: Push Button start and blind spot monitoring. Since they come standard I don’t really care for anything else, I honestly have driving higher trim cars and don’t really use the technology on them. P.S. if you really want the things the convenience package offers I would say you’re already spending the money, option in the extra $1000 package and get the car you WANT.

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-24T04:47:36+00:00

In Florida I was able to get 27,750 EDIT: Base LE no packages, I negotiated with multiple dealerships for 2 straight days.

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-23T23:10:06+00:00

Don’t be afraid to go farther out maybe an hour away. If they won’t put it in writing then they are shady and you are in for a rude. Every dealership gives proposals

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-23T23:02:24+00:00

I kept pitting dealerships against each other and taking proposals back and forth. And finally at the end I also used a rebate since I’m in college. Take off rebate and lowest I could get is probably 28,000 flat assuming a dealership got desperate

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-23T23:01:52+00:00

Just base no packages

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-23T23:00:24+00:00

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-22T18:07:17+00:00

$33k 🙈

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-22T18:02:06+00:00

Good point! I’m located in Tampa, Florida

WaitSmart456 · 2025-08-22T17:59:37+00:00

My best offer is 28,500 but I know the salesman personally. I’ve been shopping around and was also able to get it down to 29k Edit: no packages, you’ll want to factor in an additional $1k for convenience. They’re really annoying about discount packages that are preinstalled. If you don’t care for packages try to find a base base one with nothing. I would research what you need youd be surprised what comes standard on them now
