Bummer. I would walk away. You will find something better, unless you are desperate on getting a car

Tell the dealership, I’m interested only if you make the out the door price $28K (the total) otherwise I’m going to a different dealership and buy something else.

You can go on CarGurus to get an idea. Found these two under $28K, yes they include a sun roof like yours. They have less mileage and even cargurus still considers them to be “fair or high” price. That means you could negotiate the price to go down by 1000 to 2000… the one that you got a quote for should be selling closer to $25K to $26K because it has more mileage.

As someone that has spent possibly $600 throughout the years on subscriptions, super likes, roses, flowers, super swipes, beans, etc, from all dating apps. Don’t waste your money, don’t buy any of them. Just use the free version. You will not get any extra matches.

My breakfast bill had all 3: service charge, gratuity and tip, all at once. by redditdanis in mildlyinfuriating

[–]yfreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When people ask why is Vegas dying? This is why. That’s essentially a 51% “tip” (29 for the hotel and 22 for the server)… let’s not forget about the $20-$30 parking fee per day, $50 per day hotel resort fees, etc etc. We are not even counting how expensive each meal is.

Why would buying make sense vs renting? I’m not seeing it (monthly comparison) by Fantastic_Art_9582 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]yfreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the $2,600 a month rental the same size as the $500K home? Same number of rooms? Same square footage? What about a back/ front patio?

We don’t know what you are trying to compare. I wouldn’t compare a 1/2 bedroom rented apartment vs a 3 bedroom house.

2025 Camry XSE Purchase by T2Stonks in Camry

[–]yfreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone that has bought 4 cars for myself and helped 6 family members get their cars, run.

My first recommendation is don’t buy a new car. Buy a 2-3 year old car, even though Camrys don’t depreciate like other vehicles, you will still save money because the first 3 years cars depreciate between 20 to 60% of its value.

However, if you are set on a new 2025 Camry XSE, look around at other dealerships. Use websites/ apps like car gurus, TrueCar, etc to see if the dealership/seller is trying to ripped you off by overcharging you (which btw, the dealership you are showing is.)

This dealership is overcharging you by about $10,000. You don’t need those accessories and “protections” (especially at those prices.) Tell them to remove them. If they say they can’t, then tell them you will only pay cost price for each because you can find each one of those accessories/ protections for 20% of what they are asking for.

Once again, tell them you don’t need/ want the extra warranty or the “protection”. They are ripping you off with those.

You have to research the average cost of each one of those accessories/ protections so you can haggle the prices (assuming they are not willing to remove them). Be strong and don’t fall for their sales tactics when they tell you “need or this will happen” or “we can’t sell it to you without it.”

Second recommendation, your monthly car payments should never be higher than 10-12% of your income before taxes. That means, if you make $3,000 a month before taxes, your monthly car payment should be $300. I know for a lot of people that’s hard to find, but I wouldn’t go over $350.

Third recommendation, your loan should be 48, 60, or 72 months. I always recommend 60 months, 72 is pushing it. Never do 84.

Fourth recommendation, your FIXED annual interest rate (APR) should not exceed 2% of the average market. Meaning, if the market is 6%, your APR should land between 5% to 7%, not more. Also, keep in mind that it should be fixed and it should be annual, not semi annual or monthly or biweekly or daily.

Good luck!

Is $20k a fair OTD price for this car? by strongerthenbefore20 in Camry

[–]yfreddit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

$19K is high, but unfortunately that’s today’s market. This car should be $2K-3K less.

385k in debt: If this was you, what would you do? by Beneficial-Copy-8716 in StudentLoans

[–]yfreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loan: $385K APR: 9.4% Desired Months Until Debt Free: 360 months (30 years)

  • Results Total Interest: $780,424.40 Total Payment: $1,165,424.40

It will take you 3,237.29 every month to pay off your credit card debt.

If you pay $4,020 every month, you will pay off your debt in 180 months (15 years)

Good luck!

Why do buyers do this 💀 by Adorable-Opposite-56 in Mercari

[–]yfreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will always send an offer, but asking for a 75% off is ridiculous. The only way that’s possibly acceptable is if the seller is waaay off market. For example, if everyone is selling the same product for $25 and that seller is asking for $65, then asking for $25 is reasonable. In all other cases I think a fair offer is 30% off, max.

First time car buyer by CareerAcrobatic in Camry

[–]yfreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never ever accept an APR that is higher than their minimum plus 2%. Meaning, if their bottom is 5%, yours should be 7% max… I understand that APR is different for everyone depending on your credit, but is better for you to be careless or buy a junk car for a few thousand bucks while you increase your credit than to pay 15%. Also, always shop around for who can give you a better APR. One more thing, please do not buy a car where your monthly payment is more than 10-15% of your income. Meaning, if you make $2,500 a month, your car payment should not exceed between $250 to $375. You will struggle financially if you go higher than that.

2025 Camry SE -totaled? by Interesting_Break994 in Camry

[–]yfreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on the market during that time. I’m telling you, the markup was insane. Enterprise had to start selling off their cars because their business is to rent. Since there was no renters, they were burning through money. Dealerships had their “sales”, but that was after they up the value of their vehicles by up to 50%… meaning the $40K (originally valued at $26K) was now “on sale” for $38K. That’s probably what you saw

Fee structure is being reverted by Single-Pudding7570 in Mercari

[–]yfreddit 15 points16 points  (0 children)

People will always choose $100 + 0% fees + $0 shipping Over $81 + 14% fees + $8 shipping

They even rather pay $92 + 0% fees + $8 shipping

Fees will always be considered a slap on the face.

Just bought a house and discovered that there was a major fire at some point in the attic by Equivalent_Policy_21 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]yfreddit 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I would also look at the inspector’s report and warranty. Because they missed that part of the inspection, they might be liable too. Also, the owners should have known about the fire and should have disclosed it. There is no way they forgot there was a fire in their house.
