2009 Toyota Camry 2.4 LE

$1,933 total available savings (expires July 6, 2009)

Toyota Camry

The Camry is one of the top rated family sedans. It is roomy and quiet with a comfortable ride, but handling isn't very sporty or fun to drive. The base 2.4-liter four-cylinder is responsive and refined and returns 24 mpg overall. Interior storage is generous and the trunk is large. However, engine noise is more pronounced in the four-cylinder. The 2010 model is now on sale with a new 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine and standard stability control, so you can get a good deal on the outgoing model with over $1,900 in total available savings factoring dealer holdback and direct-to-dealer incentives—all part of the Consumer Reports Bottom Line Price.

How this information can help you get the best price

The key to getting the lowest price on a car is to know how much negotiating room you have. That means knowing all of the current sales incentives, including behind-the-scenes dealer perks. That information is what makes the CR Bottom Line Price the best place to begin your new-car negotiations. It's calculated by subtracting any rebates, dealer incentives, or holdback amounts from the dealer-invoice price. That gives you a good idea of how much negotiating room you have below the car's sticker price. Armed with those figures, you can often save thousands of dollars when buying a new car. Get the CR Bottom Line Price on your next new car through Consumer Reports' New Car Price Reports.
