BTW, excellent deal on the car! hope i can get the same.
The best price so far is $300 over invoice, $37,293.
Anyone done better, locally here?
I am looking at Smoky granite, Ruby Royal and Black Sapphire. Any recommendations?
thanks
The UL has ML, Park Assist, and spoiler....
thx!!!
:mad:
thx ahead!!
Also,will purchasing/installing XM Radio through a non-Lexus vendor create a serious risk to the integrity of the wiring/electrical system of the car?
Thx.
They are first class in every respect. I will be picking up my Tungsten Pearl ES 350 this weekend. The car has the premium plus package with Navigation and rear spoiler along with body side molding. MSRP was $41,520. Price paid was $37474 plus tax title and license. I'm extemely pleased with this dealership.
By the way, the message to you from the West Kendall dealership was hogwash. They wouldn't even come close to the figure they quoted to you in their "too sad too bad" e-mail message so you didn't miss out there by any means.
Thanks again for the great referral!
I received an internet quote of $33,662 for an ES 350 w/prem only (basic opt). What do you think about that?
Need yours and anyone else's help. I want some bells and whistles,but dont want to have to sell the farm :sick: .
Your premium only package has MSRP at $37087, I would expect at least $4K off (i.e. $33K) to be considered a good deal in Southern Cal.
What is considered a good deal on the ES350?
I was thinking a couple of hundred bucks over invoice??
Thoughts?? Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks.
Is this a good price?
Thanks a lot for sharing your info.
I have a question about how you obtained your price from that dealer (which was an excellent price, by the way). I requested a price quote from them via e-mail for a model whose MSRP is $36,242. The price they quoted was $33,448, which is about $2,800 off MSRP. Since your price is about $4,000 off MSRP, I was wondering whether you got that price by negotiating after you received the dealer's initial quote or if they offered that price with their initial quote.
Thanks for your help.
around 40+. They aren't anywhere NEAR invoice - taking about 1200-1400 off MSRP. Why the huge difference? Also any other Chicago area (suburban) people finding the same thing as I did?
I need to wait anyway, as my 4Runner lease is not over until June of 07. Hopefully it will come down more by then. If not, I would think about going to that Sarasota, FL dealership people keep raving about. Road Trip!
Lease 36/12, starts down, MSRP $41500, Selling price $38422, Payment $579 plus tax. Residual $24202.
Thanks.

Best I could do before turning this into an auction.
Lexus without leather, that would indeed be wierd. I though they would at least have one that is just a basic leather seat interior.
I am getting a price of $36,493 + TTL (MSRP $41,522) for a White with Tan Leather Interior. Here are the packages:
Rear side air bags,navigation,full size spare,high intensity lamps,rear sun shade parking sensors,premium plus package,wood trim,preferred acc. Package
Is this a good price. The dealer claims it is below Invoice. What other prices are members seeing the in the Bay Area CA?
I recommend Lexus of Serramonte (fleet or intenet dept), or the new dealership near San Jose (can't recall the name).
It's Possible- but only if you deal with somebody in the internet or fleet management. Shoot them an email and see what happens. See what quote they give to you and then if its higher tell them you got a lower quote at the other dealership. My aunt got a good price on a Lexus months ago at Serramonte
I was also thinking of Stevens Creek Lexus.
