Default Toyota dealer hookups?

does anyone have a connection at a Toyota dealer? a coworker is looking for a Yaris and the 08s are not around anymore. 2009s are being marked up over MSRP according to her autobroker. thanks in advance.

Try calling Capitol Toyota and ask for JT Tran.

And Auto Brokers on new cars, from what I have seen, are useless cause you can get the same deal if not better if you know where to look.

Mark ups are just a number. I can assure you can get a 09 for little under invoice. They are not in demand, plus dealers are desperate for sales.

Before buying my xB, I was going to buy a Yaris S myself. The sales manager said he'll sell me one for invoice price. Don't waste your time w/ a sales man. Go straight to the sales or fleet manager and tell him what you want.

Now of course I was paying all in cash so that is why I was going to pay invoice.

Either way...good luck. Its a great car for its $$$$.
