Bought a 2012 plated vehicle in February after looking at prices on carsales, etc. GXL was advertised for $58.8K down from of $70.4K. When I went to dealer the salesman quoted the list price and offered an insulting trade-in price. I told him about the Internet prices and he told me they must be used or demonstrators and not available. I went to local dealer who browsed the Internet and matched the price, a discount of $12k just for waiting a few months into 2013. This means I paid the second hand retail price for a brand new car. Sure I will also get a lower resale value but in several years the difference will be much smaller. Also, if you are buying get all your extras at the same time - mine were at cost which won't happen if you go back the next day. Love the Prado.Prado GXL 2012 Charcoal - Drifta Drawers, Cargo Barrier, Sidewinder Dual Battery kit, Ironman Bar, Narva lights, Safari Snorkel, Airbags, TX3350 kit, Waeco CFX65DZ - often seen with Thule 2.2M narrow roof pod and towing 2014 Kimberley Kamper. Could be anywhere!

Bought mine from Brighton toyota 3 weeks ago. Plated as Nov 2012 and paid around $56 to 57k including trade-in.. I know the 'deal' is whether the negotiation is on the initial price or the deal as a whole. They were great. I don't like pushy sales people, but I was ready to buy, they picked it, and gave me a very fair deal.
Very happy with the experience and a great car. I got the diesel manual.

Just bought new Oct 2012 plated GXL Diesel Auto with bullbar headlamp bonnet protectors, floor mats, tow bar, electric brake unit, window tint, $56k plus GST, on road costs, LCT, stamp duty total $66k
Got $30k trade for 2009 GXL diesel auto with 180,000km for a $36k change over
Usually buy around easter and get reasonable discount for last years model, we average about 45000km per year so discount is better at start than hoping for better resale when vehicle has done lots of kms
