What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Toyota RAV4
| Price of the Toyota RAV4: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
good lease rates due to high resale value |
| Price of the Toyota RAV4: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 179-horsepower 2.5L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Price was high, dealer did not offer much of a discount or was willing to work with me on my trade-in |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
A base RAV4 is quite inexpensive. Fully optioned, the price can balloon by a third. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
No incentives |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
V6 more. Not a fair comparison. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
A bit more than the crv, didnt want to wait 3 monthes for a custom built one from toyo corp since brother works there. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Too pricey compared to a Honda. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Almost $5000 more than a comparably equipped Santa Fe. Depreciation will be better, but I tend to keep cars long term so upfront pricing matters to me. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Significantly higher price than comparable vehicles. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
The vehicle is somewhat expensive, but the value is high because it offers alot for that money. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Little more expensive than some competitors and no great financing rates either. I guess since the car is popular they know people will pay the extra. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I have always thought that cars are way more expensive than they need to be. Toyota tends to be more expensive that most. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
The RAV4 was a bit more expensive than comparable cars. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport
| Price of the Subaru Impreza / WRX / Outback Sport: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 224hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
I found a great price on my WRX from a private seller. Was in stock form and seem to run fine. |
| 2006 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
Relatively inexpensive for what you get - only similar cars are German and $10K more. |
| 2006 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
Very reasonable price for AWD, 240hp and reliable vehicle |
| 2006 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 230hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
Very reasonable for what one gets - at least it was in the 2006 model. At $23K for an AWD little wagon with 230+ hp, great reliability and lots of fun it was nearly unbeatable. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 165-horsepower 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
Negotiated 18K out the door, great value! |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 300hp 2.5L H4 6-speed manual AWD |
While the STi is not cheap by any measure, it will outperform many cars twice its price. It only has one serious rival in its price/performance class (Mitsubishi Evo). Otherwise, it will eat most other sport sedans for breakfast. |
| 2003 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 227hp 2.0L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
The WRX came with metallic paint (extra cost on the BMW), cloth seats (not available on the BMW), and a cassette player AND 5-disc in-dash CD player (combo not available on the BMW), offered higher performance and cost $15k less. |

| 2013 | 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
Subaru Canada, I have a question for you: why you charge 2k more here than in States? Give me one reason, please... |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
This car is considerably more expensive than a Civic due to the AWD and turbo powertrain. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
It was a little more expensive than the GTI I bought plus the loan would have been at a higher interest rate. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 305hp 2.5L H4 6-speed manual AWD |
Making it every month !!! |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 170-horsepower 2.5L H4 5-speed manual AWD |
I feel the car is about 20% too expensive for what you get considering the poor quality of materials and low interior build quality. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 305hp 2.5L H4 6-speed manual AWD |
New and rare model made the dealer unwilling to deal. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch turbocharged 305hp 2.5L H4 6-speed manual AWD |
The new and relatively rare nature of the car made the dealer unwilling to deal. |
| 2004 | 4dr Wagon 165-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed automatic AWD |
I had a hard time finding a good one in the used market and it was impossible to get a deal because of the scarcity. |
| 2004 | 4dr Wagon 165-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Expensive compared to other comparable subcompacts, but you get AWD, many safety features, and high resale value. |
| 2003 | 4dr Wagon 165-horsepower 2.5L H4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Even old models with high mileage cost alot. |
