I like the RX 350 FWD but I do not want any options with it, just the base.
Is it realistic to be able to get one with no options and at invoice or better?
Thanks.

Can You PL let us know which dealrship is offering this price. Thank you
Also, when are the 08's coming out?
Thanks.
RX350 is a much more superior driving machine, and I liked it so much that I ended up getting it the same day. But do test drive everything else before you test drive the RX350.
Some areas are better than others, so if they don't come close to the figure you have in mind (as long as you have done your homework and your number is reasonable), shop around... even with shipping it might be cheaper. Just don't forget to go back to your local dealer with the other offers you might have and see if they'll do any better.
I certainly wouldn't pay more than MSRP, no matter what they say. Yes, I am in the process of getting regional quotes now. Thanks.
Anywho, I wanted the 2007 and contacted the local dealers via the phone/net. There is only one dealer that is fairly close to me so after emailing them, I went in and talked to them as well. When it got down to price, they said something like our internet offer is which was something like 1000 off MSRP (if that). I had a target figure in mind and that wasn't even close.
This is when I got the line of "it's a new car and people are paying MSRP blah blah blah". After 30 minutes or so, I did manage to get around 2500 or so off, but still not around what I wanted to pay. So we left. The other "local" dealers did do any better.
Long story short, found a dealer in So Cal that ended up doing around 4700 off which was pretty darn close to the numbers I had come up with.
If you haven't found the holdback, wholesale and TDA number for the specific one you want, I would advise you to do so, so you know where abouts you should be for a final offer.
Dunno about your friend, but at least here they require a VIN verification as well; no biggie, just a matter of finding time to get it done.
What is the invoice on this vehicle?
Can a dealer install a Lexus nav system in a model that didn't come from the factory with one?
Sorry, but I'll drive anywhere just not to deal with this Stealer.
Also, what is true invoice? I have Invoice costs at Carquotes.com, much higher than Edmunds! Which should I use?
They tried hard on the ext. warranty, but just couldn't do it. Offer $1,300 for 6yr, 70,000 platinum with $0 deduct. Since mfr warranty covers drive train 6/70,000 just couldn't see the value for the money. Great sales guy.. first name Ovid. Dealership is also nice.
2007 RX 350 AWD with standard packages (leather, etc.)
MSRP - $41,746
Added XM Radio, Cargo Mat and some security thing that was on the car that I don't even know what it was - price was $295
Paid $37,500
Probably could have haggled some more, but they wore me down
That's a good deal as well. My salesman at Woodfield told me that they were dealing '08's at only 1500 over '07 prices- but I did not dig deeper. They were not pushy with the Extended warranty- but quoted me $2200 for a 7 yr platinum 0 deduct/100000 miles. I have emailed a few dealers- so far the best offer has been $1605 for the same. I think I will buy the warranty after 3 years if I think I need it at that time. Enjoy your RX!
In Tulsa, the internet manager (initials AF) gave me a very reasonable quote right off the bat. They were over $1000 less than same dealer in OKC. They even paid for my one way plane ticket out there.
Had a wonderful experience with this dealership and my wife absolutelyu loves the new car!
If possible can you please tell us about what package you got, and what was the MSRP and how much you paid for it?
Thankyou
