I assume this is easier if I sell to dealer? I wonder if the dealers are willing to give me what I paid for (msrp)...
Check with Toyota Financial Services first. It may be backed by RBC but it depends on the whole arrangement, including which bank you've been paying Toyota from.

A diligent buyer is going to ask you to provide a certificate of release to prove that you've successfully paid off and sold the car to them. Some people may not care but I hope you do the right thing. Let's say you don't pay off the loan, the lien would go against the car and the new owner, so they might come back and smash your teeth in and you might make the 6'o-clock news.
