Question: How much should I pay for a 2010 Toyota Venza with 6 cylinder, 2 wheel drive, sunroof, and comfort package

Queen of the Road: Before you begin calling or visiting every dealership, I highly recommend you start a virtual negotiation with your surrounding dealers through Braggle on www.AutoBrag.com. You basically place anonymous offers to all dealerships within a 25 to 200 mile radius within your zip code. Dealerships get to compete for your business without gaining your contact information. This method is the easiest procedure and it’s free of charge. There is no obligation to buy if a dealer accepts your bid.

Question: How much money should a dealership be making on a lease?

Queen of the Road: For new car dealerships the profits on a lease is still in money made on the price of the car.  What leases do is essentially let consumers buy a block of a car’s time.  In most instances the leases are 12, 24, 36, 39, 42 or even 48 months with 36 being the most common.  However, for the new car dealership the lease transaction is still a sale.  This is why many dealerships will tell consumers they “cannot” reduce the price of the MSRP because the car is  being leased.
