| Price of the Toyota Highlander: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 187-horsepower 2.7L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
We were able to get a new Highlander for much less money than a Honda Pilot and still get all the features we desired (larger than a Rav4/CRV, >20 MPG city, leather, and full compliment of air bags/antilock/traction control) |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 155-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I got it for a good price making it an easy decsision to purchase |
| Price of the Toyota Highlander: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Felt some options missing for $38K vehicle such as memory settings, more detailed tire monitoring |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
VW was offering a sizeable discount on the Routan, a similar Highlander was from 8 to 10K more |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
you pay for the reputation. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
More expensive then Pathfinder for same year and higher milage vehicles. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Because you had to purchase features you did not want, the vehicle was much more pricey than others with the same features. They charged a premium for basic features included with other makes of cars. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Over priced because was new model at time I was looking. Configured with unwanted trim and features vs competition. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 208-horsepower 3.3L V6 Hybrid CVT AWD |
I paid full MSRP. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Nissan Xterra
| Price of the Nissan Xterra: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr SUV 261-horsepower 4.0L V6 6-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range |
For the amount of transportation value which you receive, the car is priced below where I would expect it to be. |
| 2003 | 4dr SUV 180-horsepower 3.3L V6 4-speed automatic RWD |
Very economical to own. |
| 2002 | 4dr SUV 170-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range |
Excellent value for the features. Hard to find a real body on frame truck with a durable drivetrain for this money. |
| Price of the Nissan Xterra: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr SUV 261-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
Nissan Canada is greedy. There is no reason they should charge for xterra in Canada more than in US. |
