Deal Details
This is an updated version of previous Front Page deal.

Toyota is running a huge $20,000 discount on bland new Mirai, but at the same time local dealers are marking up the price from 2000 ~ 5000 depend on who (which dealer) you deal with
https://www.buyatoyota.com/socal/...apr_331250

The MSRP of the XLE model with the Technology Option is around $52,594.

From here you will get

1. $20,000 - Cash Toyota Discount
2. $8,000 Federal Tax Credit (more info)
3. $4,500 CA Tax Credit
4. $15,000 Fuel Card valid for up to 6 years
5. $0 ~ 5,000 Dealer mark up due to high demand
6. 0% Interest for up to 72 months
7. $400 worth Gift card or other gifts, etc.

The actual calculation will be like this
52,594 - 20,000 (Toyota Discount) + 2,000 (dealer mark up) + 4,500 (tax) + 800 (DMV fees, etc.) = 39,894 (Out the door) price

If you get 72 months finance, it will be $554.09 per month

From this price, you can get Item 2, 3, 4, 7 later so
39,894 - 8,000 - 4,500 - 15,000 - 400 = $11,994

The actual price of the car can be consider only $12,394

You can find the original post of this can be find at here
https://slickdeals.net/f/14904181-2021-toyota-mirai-hydrogen-fuel-cell-vehicle-la-sf-only-23108-or-less#comments

For the item 2, 3 you can check the original post
For the item 7. Please read next post to see more details.

The dealer will try to sell you additional warranty, etc. You can opt out those or add those options later.

This $20k off deal was going to expire on 3.31.21 but it was extended to until 05.03.21. We don't know if this will be extended again. I am guessing it might with less discount such as $15k.

This deal is dead. Not only dealers are marking up this vehicle but more importantly, the CA Clean Air program responsible for the $4,500 rebate has ran out of funding, at least for now. Be aware of it and make sure you consider it when thinking about this deal.
Is there a way to find out if the CA Clean Air Program ran out of money?

On their website, you still can apply.
https://cleanvehiclerebate.org/en...e-vehicles

Wish thee a way to track the money available.

Thanks.

Obviously it's not 100% guaranteed since it involves politics but every year the funding comes back so this deal isn't 100% dead.

And Knightshade did the same thing in the last thread.
Just ignore him.

Thanks. Now I can expect dealers to call me over the weekend. Without the $4500, it's not much of a deal on the Mirai.

Are there moderators on Slickdeals? Is there a way to mute specific users? One is spamming not one but two threads on the same subject with information that is completely unhelpful.

If you have warnings about a product, that's fine. Share and move on with your life.

Last Friday, I drove off with a new Mirai. When I got home, i was bleeding from my hand. I didn't know why, but I was just exhausted due to the "nightmare" price negotiation experience I had with them. I just went in my house and treat myself.

Next day, I found a blade on the floor (photo attached). At night, I could not see it on the floor, so I touched/picked up? it and cut myself. I reported to the Salesperson but she didn't apologize, but just explain how they use the blade for removing plastic, etc. EEK!

I am not sure what is their mentality and I don't know what I should do but I complained them. Later, I found some more unprofessional practices beside the blade.

What do you think?

In the meantime, I ask the dealer, what is the current sales price for the XLE. They said they don't have in stock but they would sell for MSRP (no mark up). If you want to buy XLE, I could refer you to them. I am not sure when they will get one, but if you get one before May 3, you can get a good deal.

I wonder, who got the best deal with the Limited version not XLE. The Limited is 16.5k more. Did anyone get 10k discount or more? When I ask, they said only 5k discount. In early March, dealers were giving 5k discount with XLE, so I thought 5k off for Limited is not a deal.

They need to discount at least $4,500 for the XLE to offset the state's rebate that no longer available.

It's waitlisted/pending. Most likely will come back in June/July but it's completely up to the state

I think we should just completely ignore that person.

Not sure I would risk $4500 and leave it up to the State of California.

Does this apply to already submitted applications? I submitted mine 2 days after I bought my Mirai in mid March.

Awesome. So I'm good. All docs submitted and they sent confirmation that they are processing. No other feedback since April 8th so no news is good news.

Sucks that the funds are exhausted but it's not just for FCEV. Hope it comes back.

You certainly can mute specific users. I did that to Knightshade after his extremely misinformed, trolling posts. A quick scan of his post history shows that he is noting but a Tesla fanboi that apparently needs to justify his expense on a car that he can't roadtrip in by trolling in all the alternative fuel vehicle threads he can. Very similar to the stereotypical apple fanboy back in the day. Tries to justify there overspending on a product by trying to convince others that it is a superior product, when it isn't.
