the last gen GS was a big hit as one see them everywhere. but the new one has not been doing so well so far, hence Lexus is really pushing it.
all of the above are nice cars. however, the GS350 is the best value, imho.
btw, thx to your price reference, helped my in-laws, and got them a deal of $541 incl tax, happy in-laws/wife, happy life, which means more toys for me, lol. few things are certain in LA, sunshine, smog and great car lease deals
Coming from an IS 350, it took a few days to get used to the size of the GS. I would recommend this car to anyone.
If you are in Ca, there is a $2500 incentive that should pay for your 1st month payment, license and all of your fees. It should also reduce your capitalized cost by around $1250. Just sign and drive, the only way to go!
I am in Orange County, CA. I have been quoted the following quote on a 2013 Lexus GS-F without Mark Levinson:
- 36 months, 12K / Year
- MSRP = $58,192.00
- Selling Price = $53,224.00 + Plus fees & Tax = $58,074.65
- Down Payment = $649.00
- Monthly Payment = $628.00
- Money Factor = .00100
- Residual = 58% = $33,751.00
I am trying to get clarification as to whether the factory rebate of $2,500.00 has been included in the selling price. Does not seem like this is a good price in comparison to some of the other deals I see here. Can any of you please mention the names of dealerships in So. Cal. you have gone to?
Thanks so much
Blinkn09, did you end up purchasing yours at Mission Viejo? Would you be able to tell me the deal that you got again. I am sorry, but I am new to this forum, but find it extremely helpful. Yet, I have not been able to navigate around it too well. Thanks so much.
I am a novice when it comes to cars so any help will be greatly appreciated. In a few hours, I will get a GS350 in Los Angeles. The optional items are blind spot monitor, 18" wheels, HDD navigation, Park Assist, Premium Package (heated / ventilated seats, etc.). Total MSRP $53,387. The final offer I got was $1,100 down, $475 per month (including tax), 36 months, 10k miles per year. Is this a decent deal? Thanks a lot.
On a side note, I was actually offered $5 a month less on a 27 month lease, but I wanted a 36 month because I paid for the license for the whole year and when the lease is up, the new models will only be a month away.
My car is an F-Sport that had an msrp of $58617. That seems to be what most of them msrp for in SoCal.
Thanks
Thanks for your help!

Please tell me if these are good numbers and if i should take the deal
Thank you
They are paying the first month but not willing to negotiate on the drive off
I don't know whether to take it or not?!
As far as your existing lease is concerned, dealer usually don't simply pay your remaining payments. The way it usually works is that dealer will "buyout" your existing lease. Buyout amount is the residual value of your existing lease + remaining payments. If the car has good resale value then it is also possible for dealer (or you) to actually make some money from this transaction. Otherwise dealer can add negative equity to your new lease.
I think you should find out:
- Your buyout quote for your existing car (without sales tax -- remember dealers don't have to pay sales tax for buyouts). You can get this from your current leasing company
- Trade-in value of your current car (yes you can trade-in leased cars).
- Haris.
I agree they usually don't simply make the payments but they actually said that's what they plan to do. The reason I am concerned about waiting till the end of the year is that the F Sports are already getting hard to find and I don't want to be looking at a 2014 with virtually no lease incentives. I will find out my buy out which is on a 2011 Lincoln MKX with every dealer option, this was a $50k car I leased for $649 a month
Again Many thanks for your response
I'm looking at a 2010 Lexus GS 350.
I have a few questions:
1. The dealer is asking 34k for this as CPO sale. Is CPO worth the money? This one has spider wheel upgrade.
2. Here is the car fax, it's confusing to me as what's a coporate fleet car, then registered as a manufactor car? A friend of mine said that it's like a rental, and I should avoid it. Is that true? also, why is this one owner, given the title has changed twice?
3. Given its price, should I be better off buying a newer model or the 2013 model?
thanks

in south florida, dealers here don't really have good deals. I have been fighting and this has been the best I have got and think gonna go for it.
Thanks!
Did you end up taking your deal? Can you summarize your deal? Which dealership did you go to?
The dealer will pay four months on my 2011 GS lease (~600.00 per month for four months)
15,000 miles per year
36 month lease
Got identical payment as for my old GS: 599.00 per month
The program ends September 3
Any ideas?

They are telling me the $3,100.00 rebate ($2,500 rebate + 1 month payment) is in addition to the $4,968.00 discount.
Does this seem like a good deal?? Thanks everyone.
36 mo. 12K mi/yr.. residual is 58%... for 27 months it is 66%..
Unfortunately, Lexus MFs vary widely across different regions, and I can't find the ones for the NorthEast... They seem to be very low, just about everywhere, though... (below .0010)

Got 36 Mo. Lease, 12K / year, zero down payment, at $556.16 per month, tax included. Residual is 58%. I had first month payment plus $2,500.00 for a total of $3,056.16 paid thru Lexus. Sales tax for OC is 8.75%. I am very happy. Easiest haggle free transaction. Purchased the car in OC.
Just to confirm you got 0 down + 35 monthly payments of $556, correct?
Which dealer was that?
Also, is anyone aware is the August lease rebate is still effective?
