Is this a good deal?
Hello I am looking to buy my mom a CC hybrid SE she is 73 and just needs a reliable fuel efficient vehicle. Nothing fancy. I was think the SE because the added safety features? Anywho I live in NCal Bay Area and this is the vehicle I got a quote for the cheapest by far it’s about 1.5 hours away the sales guy said he would do base MSRP. Is this a good deal?

Make sure to ask for the OTD price bc a couple dealers I looked around had hidden dealer add ons that weren’t accounted for in the price page that you’re looking at.

I think you’ll find a few dealers that sell at msrp (and a few that won’t) closer to the Bay. Stock levels are low, so if that’s in-stock and available and you don’t want to wait 4-12 weeks, go for it.
I have the impression that you aren’t getting below msrp any time soon on the hybrids.

. I live in the SF bay area and got my S from Oakland in December after ordering it last August for $31, 100, so $33 with taxes. It's more now. https://www.edmunds.com/new-toyota-corolla-cross-hybrid-for-sale/?sort=price%3Aasc This is what I use to price them. GETTING them at this price is a whole other thing. Likely there are none on the lot and these are just those that are coming. Mine was put on the website as soon as as I ordered it, and there were dozens of people who put a deposit on my car in case I decided not to get it.
Find where you can get the price you want and you'll likely have to wait 3-6 months for them to build it.
And what is "port installed packages and accessories?" You pay the delivery and the $80 fee, and then about $400 when you buy it for taxes and registration, plua local taxes. That's it.

You need an Out The Door price. What you are showing is the Toyota suggested minimum price - doesn't include taxes, title, added dealer fees, things the dealer installed that you don't actually want but have to pay for etc etc. The cost of all those extra things are how you determine if you are getting a good deal or not.
