Buying a 2011 Toyota Tacoma, and saving $2500 off of MSRP.
I had already selected the Tacoma prior to finding CCC. The info provided in the wholesale reports put me in a position to control the negotiations.
I decided to try my local Toyota dealership (Whitby Toyota) first. They are close to my house, so dealing with them was the most convenient option. Before visiting I printed off the CCC wholesale report for the truck I wanted. I sat down with the sales rep, showed him the CCC report and offered him $1000 over dealer cost. I made sure to point out the dealer holdback they would be getting on top of the $1000, which I learned about here. He consulted with his manager before accepting my offer.
Buying from Whitby Toyota was a great experience. They were friendly, honest and reasonable.
CCC is a great tool. It's well worth the cost for anyone looking to buy a new vehicle!
