I HOPE, that the 2010 RX will sell for invoice in 2009 December. If you want to buy now than go for 2009 @ atleast $2,000 less than invoice. Good Luck!!!

We debated about the RX 2010 which is coming around April 2009, however the third row seat and shape like Mercedes R series did not appeal us, so decided to buy 2009
Before the Lexus, I had driven Nissan products for over a ten-year period, so my experience with the reliability with Nissan was very good. So as far as that goes, I still feel very confidant of the
reliability of a Nissan/Infiniti product at this point, probably more so with the Infiniti products.
Mercedes R series!! Talk about a weird-shaped car! Not pretty!!
The one picture that I saw a while back certainly didn't bring to mind the Mercedes R series to me. But then again, the car didn't look a whole lot different than the current generation, and it definitely didn't look long enough to have a third-row seat. So I'm not sure how accurate that one was.
Has anyone else found more up-to-date photos of the 2010 RX350 anywhere yet??
Since RX 350 was very popular with women, who always were somewhat reluctant, since it was not a utility vehicle like a minivan, they want to make the RX 350 as the mom's car....following Mercedes footsteps. Here is one link from google search

I hate Mercedes R class shape.
When I go to your profile there is no option to send you a message. It says it hasn't been set up and that "CarSpace Page in Progress".
I'd like to get the name of your salesperson, if possible.
If you could PM me at carspace.com/members/roberepos12 I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks.
MSRP - $47,396
Sell price - $40,900
Lease 36 months 10K miles/yr Residual - 57%
Rolled in all inception fees (Lease fee, motor vehicle etc.) which was about $1100
Used multiple security deposit option (9 @ $500) to reduce money factor to .00073
Monthly payment - $500
Out of pocket is just first month of $500 and MSD (refundable)
You looked at Infiniti FX...They are great vehicles with little jarring ride. If you are like RX's ride then FX will feel like a go-cart to you.
Have you considered MDX? You can pickup 08 MDX with tech pkg for ~36K in southern cal...most car like SUV you can buy. The front styling is little polarizing
Thanks much.
It is a 36 month lease and gap insurance is included with all Lexus Financial Leases. Also, the multiple security deposit option saved $54 per month for a $4,500 deposit. It's fully refundable and that's a 14.4% rate of return, and I temporarily put it on the free Lexus Pursuits Visa they gave me which gives me cash back and no interest for 60 days.
Does the $40,900 include the $1100 (inception fees, dmv)?
Does the $40,900 include the $825 delivery charge?
Did you get a Lexus Loyalty ($1000) discount as part of the above?
Does the $40,900 include anything else?
Thanks.
So if you do the math, the adjusted capital cost is approx $42,000 with the fees rolled in and the residual is $27,015 (57% of MSRP $47,396). Depreciation is approx. $416. Reduced money factor of .00073 on $69,015 equals approx $50. Total is $466 plus 7% NJ tax is $500.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks again and enjoy your new ride!
lexusking paid 38,500 which did include the lexus loyalty ($1000) but from his post it looks like it DID NOT include the $825 destination charge on a vehicle with an MSRP of 46,241. I tried to contact him to clarify this (and to find out the name of his salesperson at the VA dealership) but didn't get a response.
So if we are comparing apples to apples, with the lexus loyalty, bmkj would have been 39,900 (with destination) against lexusking's 39,325 (with destination). This is a $525 difference in actual cost, but the MSRP differed by $1,155.
Also note that lexusking's dealership charged him tax on the $1000 lexus loyalty discount (something that other dealerships don't do), which at 5% VA sales tax would have been another $50, bringing the difference in actual cost to $475 against options of $1,155 included in bmkj's car and not included in lexusking's car.
Don't know if either of these two individuals had to pay a 'document' fee or any other type of bogus add-on fee. If so that might change the computation above.
Looks to me like bmkj did better.
I hate to write names, email addresses and or phone numbers on forums and can't figure out how to invoke the PM.

Finally, after all your facts are gathered, don't be afraid to negotiate. Ask for as much as you can. The worst they can say is no. If you are reasonable and a serious buyer, you will get a good deal. Thanks again to all that helped me. I hope I can help future customers and pay it forward.
The $1000 "closing certificate" is also good on the 2008 LS460.
Please tell me where to get the best deal....
Thanks
kermitfrog-can you tell me which dealer you dealt with?
shall I by pass this financing promotion and wait?
rosalinday- I'll PM you for more info.
he also told me that it's almost impossible to find one with a rear entertainment center. without that I am fluctuating between RX and ES again. The only good thing is the financing rate, it will save thousands, at the end, a RX350 will cost the same as the ES350. I did my math....
RX 350 AWD with NV and PT(prem plus) packages for $38,500 plus tax and license for a total of ABOUT $42,000 out of door.
Good deal? It appears the only profit they get is the hold-back cash? Did I get this right?

There's a black with beige interior with a rear entertainment in Marin at Lexus dealer... saw it on Sunday. It's also with the Mark Levinson pkg so it's not cheap.
Good luck... looking myself!
Cheers,
Marinite
