Find what you want
As walking into a Toyota dealership without knowledge of the cars is not a good idea, you will need to research potential cars, which grab your interest.
Product line
You would do well to spend some time looking at their vast product line.
After all, Toyota Motor Corporation (including Scion, Lexus, and other brands) is the largest automobile manufacturer in the world.
Reviews
Go to their website and look at reviews (such as, Edmunds) for Toyota automobiles, which will help you to expedite the learning process.
Whether it's the Toyota Prius or a Double Cab, the choices are great for this manufacturer. Once you define a model or two that you find interest in, learn it inside and out. Read reviews, look at pricing information in your area, and learn on the typical options.
Buying a new Toyota
So, once you've done your research, you should not directly head to a dealership for the test drive and talk prices.
Quote of the model
Via Internet or telephone, obtain a competitive quote for the model that you would like to purchase. They may need to have it in stock, but this will help you get a good price on a vehicle. Dealers realise that they can gain business at this very step. If you receive competitive quotes, you can use this to negotiate.
Trade-ins
You should always take care of any trade-ins, if applicable, before purchasing a new car. Obtain offers from other dealerships (used car lots will often purchase vehicles) to help you when it comes to negotiating.
Test drives
In the next steps, you should take your test drives and get a good sense of what you want to purchase. Once you have done this, you will need to use other dealers to drive up the price of your trade-in, as well as drive down the price of the new Toyota. Also, don't forget to obtain financing before walking into any dealership.
Deals on new cars
You could also pursue/wait for deals on new cars, which will be held from time to time, such as, the end of the model year. Often, you'll get a nice promotional APR or some other deal.
