Igotaquest
I really would appreciate some input. This is our first time buying a car. The car we are interested in is a RAV4 2011 Limited(Prem. Plus Value Package,body side molding,floor mats,auto dimming rear view mirror).
Its MSRP is $28,078.00. Invoice price is $26,529.00 and we were quoted $25,929.00. Is this a good deal? How much under the MSRP and how much under the invoice price should we go in order to make a good?
If you work at a dealership and provide me insider's info, I'd greatly appriciate it.
Thank you very much in advance.
The invoice price of $26,529.00 includes accessories which includes "Back up camera"($500).

Edmunds.com shows the same car you're loking at for $24,915 so you are only getting ripped off by 1,014.00 plus I'm sure they will talk you into a useless $2,000 warranty and $1 ,000 worth of un needed undercoatings and interior coatings. In the end you will only get ripped off by about $4,000. Not bad in today's economy. I'd spend hte extra $2,000 - $3,000 buy something tried and true like a Jeep Grand Cherokee that won't collapse when it gets rear ended. Never use the third row for your children when cars this small (even mini vans for that matter) get rear ended the tailgate tends to open the opposite direction and usually takes out the entire rear seat with it. If you're set on a Rav 4 Limted there's plenty of them listed on cars.com for $21,000 and change. But don't get any of the extras. They rip you off on everything.

HELP! Are these good first cars?
blahh.
Im a girl turning 16 in march. I want to get a car for my birthday! I would really like a ford fusion, 2005 chrysler 300, a 2009+ ford focus, and a Dodge Avenger. Im looking for something stylish, classy, or sporty for a girl. I've been told mini coopers or a fiat but im not sure about those. Any further info or suggestions on cars for me? (I am getting a used car not anything brandnew and nothing before 2005 and nothing after 2011) and I dont like Honda cars so none of those please.
Answer
you need to get a car that gets very good gas mileage.. to fill up your car could cost $80 , that's a lot.
google ( edmunds.com ) there you can find reviews , problems , etc on any used car,, mpg etc ,, even the amount you should pay for it.
To find out you should pay for a certain car.. look for the button that say " appraise your car " then put in the info of the car you want to buy to get a price.
here to get you started google ( edmunds.com 2005 chysler 300 ) you see that it does not great gas mileage .. so you should forget that one. and dont buy a fiat or a cooper.
