Toyota Dealer's parts department's online website - which one has the lowest prices?

[Bill7]

Hi. Yesterday I purchased a used "new to me" 2008 Toyota Corolla CE with 60k miles from an original owner.

I wanted to keep the vehicle 100% Toyota, and order Toyota Parts online from a brick and morter Toyota dealer whose parts department
has online parts prices near wholesale prices. Please provide recommendations. Thank you.

Sparks Parts but I've found that my local dealer will price match.

Thanks for your reply. I see 2 similar websites, but they have different prices it seems:

https://autoparts.sparkstoyota.com/
and
https://www.sparksparts.com/

Trying to understand if they are the same dealership? Which onw were you referring to?

It is the same Toyota dealership. Both webpages show the following contact info:

4855 HIGHWAY 501
MYRTLE BEACH, South Carolina, 29579

Thanks. Looks like a good choice. Any other ones that you recommend?

Prices will vary depending on what you're ordering & distance to shipping location. Also, there are times when some will offer an additional 25% off such as around Christmas.
Nucar Toyota of North Attleboro
South Dade Toyota
Toyota of North Miami
Conicelli

Toyota (corporate) seems to offer better pricing than dealer websites in some cases plus they have the option of shipping it to a dealer along with the dealer's other, daily parts orders and there's no shipping charge.

Play around with the dealer selection - dealer discount levels vary.

I would try to find a dealership that you can drive to and pick up your parts. Nearly all metro areas have at least one dealership that will wholesale parts to the public. Even if their prices isn't the absolute lowest on an oil filter it still makes the shipping and time savings well worth the outlay.

Would you happen to know the url for Toyota Corporate

I haven’t used them in years but I did during the great, “LS430 factory floor mats for $18” giveaway. I don’t even know where I put them but I got 3 sets and installed 1.

I bought all kinds of OE clips and pins and they still have a sizable discount.

Thanks - this lets you compare dealers prices on a part. Very helpful.
The dealers around my area are price gauging, so am looking for some out of state dealer that historically has lower prices for their online orders than most other dealers.

Some bimmer dealerships have different prices depending on how the part is ordered. My rec is to find the part numbers and the goolge the part numbers to see which dealer offers the best price. Remember, shipping costs will be a factor.

Google the toyota part number, then start searching through the list.

I have ordered from both Sparks and Brunswick, but last fall when the sale was on one of my local dealers was cheaper. Go figure.

I have used Conicelli (spelling) for NIssan in the past and they were good pricing, they also sell Toyota stuff. They seem to run around 30% off MSRP https://parts.conicellitoyotaofconshohocken.com/toyota-parts

The few parts that I've had to order for the Highlander, I got from Toyota Parts Deal. OEM Toyota parts with a discount off MSRP.

No exploded diagrams ( ) but these can be found on other Toyota parts websites for cross verification.

Thanks to all who responded. I tried all the links and I picked an expensive part: 88310-AZ014 which is a $500 air conditioner compressor for a Toyota Corolla as a possible gauge as the high price could give a greedy dealer room to price gauge.

The 2 lowest prices I found were on Conicelli and Sparks. All the other links were a lot more expensive.
Conicelli has slightly lower prices than Sparks, and Conicelli has lower shipping costs if total cost is < $75.
Sparks is slightly more expensive on the parts prices, but Sparks offers free shipping on orders over $75.
So if the order is < $75 then Concielli may be the better choice. If it's > $75, Sparks may be the better choice due to the free shipping.

There comes a point in time, where once you find the desired part (especially for a 16 year old car), you should stop micro-managing the decision and open the wallet. You have narrowed it down to two sources; flip a coin and place the order. And don't continue to search once the order is placed. You could drive yourself insane with regret.

Been there, done that.

I've ordered a lot of parts from Sparks over the last 7 years and never had any issues with them.Prices are good ,shipping is what it is these days .But i like them

 

[Luftmasse]

So far, I have found Tustin, CA Toyota dealership has the best pricing.

 

[Bill7]

Thanks. I did a price comparison on a 2008 Toyota Corolla AC Compressor with Pulley: Part # 88310-52551

$754.00: https://autoparts.tustintoyota.com/
$747.50: https://autoparts.sparkstoyota.com/
$721.50: https://parts.conicellitoyotaofconshohocken.com

I've bookmarked all 3 of them, and will try all 3 before ordering any parts.
