Payments sound right to me with the additions.

My 'holding' fee was $500 + $2500 more down + $400 recent college grad discount. Took me to $296/month for 5yrs. Only thing i added was the pedistal spoiler + Auto. APR was 5.25%. Sucks because when i went in the previous month is was 4.90%.

My rate is higher (5.5%) and my payment is lower ($319) and it's also for 5 years. I only put $500 down, but the only option I got from the dealer was floor mats, so if your car is loaded then that could account for the difference. Sounds like your car has maybe $3000 worth of options?

ONLY two weeks.... that's really not all that bad.

I waited a month. Some people have waited more. Worst part for me was this was a 3rd ar for my fiance and I, so another car could be a back up. Then, one of the 2 cars we had (our show car) got totaled 3 days after i ordered the tC, so we were down to 1 car for a week (1 week only because we replaced the totaled car) then still had 2.5 weeks to wait for the tC. lol. So is life.

Sounds cool. Congrats on your new car! I had to wait 2 weeks for my tC too and it felt like it took FOREVER!! Then you finally get the phone call---you'll be a kid in a candy store!

I just got my SSM tinted and it looks A LOT better! I also got new rims/tires. It looks 1000% better with those! I got tired of seeing everybody's SSM tCs lookin' the same. If you have the $$$, do it! You'll receive many compliments.

no, I think he means why are you waiting 2 weeks for an 05 when the 06s are due within a month?

My payments and interest are quite a bit higer than most people on here and I had to put $1,000 down for them to approve me without a cosigner. 66 month loan.

I'm gonna refinance it once I sell two out of the three SHO's.

My APR is 4.9 or 4.7, I dont remember which is pretty damn good for a 20 yr old with hardly any credit.
My payments are also 140.00 a month
This is because I gave a 12,500 down payment.

The 06 scions will ship next week so it will take about two months before they hit the showroom floors. If you're going to wait, you might as well wait for the 06's as they will have steering wheel controls for the HU, a better Pioneer HU, and iPod integration as options. The press release also said something about more interior standard equipment (not specific) and the price is only $200 more than the 05.

BTW, I waited 2 days for my FM because the dealer was an idiot. I drove 20 miles up the street after the second day and bought it from another dealer that had the car I wanted on the lot. It took me 3 hours. BTW, my trade in difference was $6700 + 400 recent college grad so a total of $7100 down, finance for 3 years at 5.35%, payments are $320
