I have been offered a price of $36690+TTL for the premium plus package with navigation. IS this a good deal to consider???
Please respond...
I live in Texas and I got a quote of $36674 + TTL FWD no Navigation system on the Premium package so either I'm getting ripped off or your getting an excellent deal.
I'm going to the dealership tomorrow to pick it up so any advice you could give on how you got this price would be appreciated
$38971 was the lowest quote I got today from the CA dealers. (FWD, not AWD)
If u buy this price . Please let me know the dealer.I will buy one more for my wife.
Condition: Brand New. never been drive by other, below 15 miles in odo. not display car.
We are ready to pick up a Lexus RX 300 (with Nav) this weekend. Could anyone recommend a dealer with good pricing here in So Ca? Seems like Texas is giving good prices there.
Thanks.
Would you please let me know which dealer quote you $38971 in Ca, and where is it? Does it have navigation?
I am ready to buy an RX330 with Premium Plus - MSRP 40,518. Please provide info on Houston dealer at 36,300 - was this special color, leftover, demo, what?. Thank you.
I think the price others paid for this AWD without Nav. around Pacific Northwest is between $38k and $38.5k (Jan-Aug ‘05) if doing the homework. It still seems harder to deal with the dealers since the 05’s without Nav. are low in stock and Toyota/Lexus is raising price for all 06 models, so the price has trickled back up in Seattle-Portland area (even with recorded gas price and rebates for MDX and Highlander).
I negotiated with sales consultant of Portland via emails and phones since he responded my requested asking for a quote via CarsDirect/Autoweb.com. Their first "Golden Opportunity" price quote was $41,310. LOL. Lexus of Seattle did not want to match the last offer from Portland and they don’t have the color combo I want.
BTW, I live in Seattle area so I had to pay additional of 9.1% tax. I also paid $75 for title and $50 for doc. fee.

$36,491 is the best quote that i've gotten so far. Should I pull the trigger? It seems supply are quite limited...at least according to the salesfolks : ). We want to make a decision within the next day or two, so would really appreciate your input/advise.
thanks!
I ditto the thanks to this forum. It helped me learn more about the RX and what price I should pay.
To question in mssg # 2303 -- sounds like a good deal. compared to my deal, you are basically saving $ 2k for not getting the awd. you prob don't need awd in so cal anyway, right?
peace out.

MF = .00245
Res = 57%
The dealer I received a quote from this week gave the following for the same car:
MF = .00275
Res = 55%
Also, I got the following quote on the internet:
MF = .00215
Res = 57%
I've decided that I'm not getting one until some better looking lease terms appear. The one above at .00215 is getting in the right ball park for me though
I was planning for a 05 or 06 RX330.
Right now I took off from edmunds.com new car pricing.
Here is the price for my configuration. Please could you tell me
what my target price should be? Appreciate it.
PM Premium Package
HS Two-Level Heated Front Seats
Total w/ Options: MSRP: $40,110 INVOICE: $35,268 (w/o Destination Charge)
Thanks for help.

Associated question: are 18" alloy wheels really needed, or can I ask dealer to downgrade them?
Thanks
Ed
I've got:
Navigation
Premium Plus Package
6 disc CD
really awesome shiny 18" wheels
cargo mat and wheel locks
MSRP: $45k
I paid: $40k (plus tax & license)
I feel I did pretty well. I'd have bought the 400h if they were about $5,000 less or if they got much better gas mileage. I've found it a little too easy to get pretty bad gas mileage in the city in my 330... (around 17-18 mpg) if I am not really careful how I drive. In the other hand, long trips on the freeway result in 26-27 mph... so that is cool. I don't understand how ANYONE buys this car without Nav. This is the coolest car I have ever owned.

Also, is it worthed to buy extra warranty?
Thanks.
T
I'm planning to drive the car for at least 3-5 years, if not 10 years in good weather condition (CA). If I do resell it in 5 years, would I be able to capture the additional warranty investment? I'm having it paintguard and fiberguard with PermaPlate for an additional $600 investment already.
I have to decide in a few days so thanks for your help in advance.
