Invoice price on Trail Team package

I need some help. Im starting to look at buying a Trail Team MT but I cant find the invoice price. KBB shows multiple invoice prices for the package and Edmunds shows none. I only want the conveinence, Trail Team and the arm rest on a manual transmission. I know the MSRP is $31kish but I want to try and deal up from invoice. Any help is appreciated.

Re: Invoice price on Trail Team package

From what I remember the TT Package has an invoice of $4076 I think. I'm sure others will chime in.

Re: Invoice price on Trail Team package

I appreciate the responses. Ive found two invoice prices one is $4076 and the other is $3777. Based on the options I want that is an invoice of $26946 or $27581. Sticker is $31174 with a profit at MSRP of $4228 or $3593. Im having a hard time letting a dealer make that much off me. Come negotiation time Im gonna try hard to stick to 4-6% percent over invoice. Probably get laughed out of the showroom but its worth a shot.

Re: Invoice price on Trail Team package

Given the low percentage of MT Trail Teams trucks that will be built......good luck with chiseling a deal a few hundred over invoice.

I watched someone while I was visiting the dealership last Saturday look at the TT in stock, leave to "think it over" and it sold before he drove away.

I couldn't even get a pic of that bling-a-licious rear skid plate.

This thing looks unbelievably better in person than I could have imagined.

Re: Invoice price on Trail Team package

I drove an automatic Trail Team today. I saw it person for the first time the other night and was falling over myself once I saw it in person, the pictures did no justice. The FJ sales down here have gone flat with the two local dealers still sitting on a bunch of '07s so Im hoping they might deal. Heck 6% over is still almost $1700 which aint too bad. I guess Ill find out in a few weeks when I go to buy.

Only problem right now is there isnt any manual trans anywhere around no matter the trim just so I can make sure I like the manual.

Re: Invoice price on Trail Team package

Hmmm, i thought invoice was much higher. I put a deposit down on an MT, my sales person told me it was 500 over invoice and I am sitting at $28+, do I wait until signing and say "hey bub you said 500 over invoice, I have the email to prove it, so what gives?".
But i think withit being the SE they'll tell me to kick rocks. any suggestions?

I would ask for a copy of the invoice and add $500

Re: Invoice price on Trail Team package

Stopped to look at one at the Toyo dealer in Jackson, TN. NICE!!

It was a MT and the sticker price was 32K and some change.

If they don't sell at what they previously agreed to in writing (I hope) you have the opportunity to turn into "the crazy guy that will be on the news tonight" in front of a whole showroom of folks.
