SE Toyota (they own the franchise rites to all dealers in Florida, Georgia, Alabama and the Carolina's) came out with owner loyalty rebates this week - if you or an immediate family member own or lease a Toyota or Scion you get a $1,000 owner loyalty rebate that can be used towards the purchase of a new Camry, Corolla, or Tundra - this rebate CAN be combined with the low interest financing and the lease program - WHICH THEY NEVER DO. We are offering some deeper discounts on the vehicles as well - and we still have customers coming in and buying every day.
Yes, Toyota screwed up. But they have also come forward, acknowledged their mistake and are doing the proper things to make it right - I have to give them credit for that. Its not often that you see the president (Mr Toyoda) of a large company come forward and appologize publicly and vow to make things right. And while this may have tarnished their reputation right now, Toyota will continue to prove to be a reliable vehicle....in the past couple of weeks we have had more customers email in saying that even with the bad press they will continue to purchase Toyota's because they have only had good experience with them. One customer emailed us yesterday to tell us about his 1998 Tacoma with 302,000 miles on it - all he's had done to the car are oil changes and tires - if thats not reliability I don't know what is
