Looking to pickup a 2013 RX 350 for the wife. She has a 2010 one right now coming off lease end of Jan. Would appericiate fast feedback so I can capture any deals before end of year.
2013 RX350 FWD ($39,310)
Package B: NAVIGATION SYSTEM WITH BACKUP CAMERA PACKAGE WITH ADDITIONAL OPTIONS ($7205)
Delivery P&H ($895)
MSRP: $47,410
What's the best sell price I can get this for before TTL? Also what are the interest and lease rates possible on this based on best selling price?
Many thanks & merry christmas
One thing that might help you is that dealers have a $1,000 coupon that they can give you in order to drop the price of the rx350. Dealers only have so many of these available and they are not publizing that info.
I don't know if I could have gotton more off the car but given all the info that I gathered and also given the fact that they had the car I wanted -getting 10.1% off the MSRP was OK with me.( The coupon is not dealer loyalty.)
Wow! Sounds like you got a great deal. And a great Xmas present.
Would you mind to share the name of the sales person you dealt with and the particulare dealership. Did you negotiate this in person?
What was your start price
Also. Is price for the AWD?
Thanks so much
Sounds like some commenters got much better deal than I did. Going to pick up the car this AM.
The invoice price is $46,700.00 and the dealer is willing to lease it to me for $43,950.00. I'm responsible for my three remaining lease payments---approximately $1,500. My monthly lease payment will be $522 including tax. The mileage at this price is 12,000 a year. My residual is .60. I guess I'm also responsible for license and fees. In Los Angeles I think this comes out to 2831.32 in taxes and 422.75 in government fees. It looks like there is also an $80 fee. Not sure if this is some type of document fee. Hmmm...Why would they pass of such a niggling expense?
What do forum members think of this price? Should I just wait until March to negotiate a new lease. Doesn't seem like I'm getting a great end of year deal but would like to know what others think.
Does this mean the buyer paid $45,668 and the TTL+DOC were included or they were extra in addition to the $45,668? Thanks Dorothy
So again if the car lists for $49,100 what would be a bottom for the car only. I would qualify for the $1K certificate and the $1K if I finance. So in addition to the $2,000 how much more should I get off and pay? Right out of the chute it's going to be down to $47,100
I'm wondering how low it can go with all rebates included. Sorry if I'm redundant but I'm always confused the way numbers are posted. Thanks & Happy New Year !Dorothy
Are you saying 45k, 44k and then another $2K off ? Or $45K or $44K after I get the $2k rebate? Thanks Dorothy
Don't believe a car sales rep.
Steve
Is this a good price ??
Thank you for all your help and support

I don't know why I haven't read anything about this in any reviews, or on any forums but I hate the RX 350 2013! Hate it!! Let me start by saying that I loved my RX 2010. I turned in my lease thinking I was getting a new and improved RX. Yes, it has some improvements but it has hard seats and a very stiff suspension. This is on the RX 350 non sport model. The sport model must be a horror story. If I wanted this much feedback from the road I would buy a BMW. What was Lexus thinking and why isn't anyone else commenting on this? The seats are very hard, too compared with my 2010. I hate it so much that I've called the dealer to find out what it will cost for me to bring it back and finance my 2010. "
Reallllllllllllly? Did you sit in the car before you bought it and or do an extended test drive? Hope it works out for you.
Steve
I had a 2009 Murano. The Murano had a softer seat than the Lexus and a terrific ride but I like the Lexus just as much.
I hear your frustration about the Lexus. At age 74 I've made a mistake or two when purchasing new cars but I 'm betting that, as you get use to the drive, you'll come to enjoy it. I know that you will adapt--just give it some time.(BTW-I read my comment to my wife who smiled and said" I sure that exactly what he wants to hear")
Then ,look at the placard on the drivers door and read for your size tire, the recommended pressure.
Read this when tires are 'cold'. Take it to Lexus, and have them put the recomended pressure in if it is off the chart.
While at the dealership test DRIVE another new 2013 with similar equipment, and drive it on a couple different roads similar to what you usually drive on. How was that ride ? If much different, find out the size and pressure in those tires .
Drive yours again after driving the test one, and with proper pressure in your tires.
Let us know your results here ?
Hang in there...
I'm on my 4th RX..2005, 2008, 2010, 2012. I recently drove the 2013 over 30 miles, and found it just like my 2012, as both had same size tires and brand.
It is allowed here to mentioned the Dealer. It's ok.
thanks

I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THEY (LEXUS)TELL YOU. I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THERE ARE DIFFERENT SEATS, BUT HOW DO THEY DETERMINE WHAT CAR THEY PUT THE SOFT SEATS IN?
GOOD LUCK AND HOPE EVERYTHING GOES WELL.
JACK
I am not in a hurry to buy now.
Does anyone have first-hand experience with this?
Also, refuse to pay any documentation fees. Insist !!
Good luck.
Steve
They only have one RX in their lot with the "old price" in the color combination I want. I hope it doesn't get sold !
Other dealers in the area are not going lower than $46500.
Will $43500 be a good deal?
Another thing I have always said is to never believe anything a sales rep says. I mean nothing.
Depending on option packages it it certainly possible to get an RX350 for $43,000.
I always shop around but usually on the phone. I almost never walk into the dealership until we agree on a price over the phone.
Having said that, if you are in an area with one (or few) Lexus dealers, it makes negotiating difficult.
In my case, I shopped with 5 Lexus dealers.
Steve
Will try for $43000-43500. If it doesn't work, will try in July when 0.9% will be offered.
Thanks again for your advice !

Price as quoted was $45,600 + tax and license, and they said there's a $1k rebate currently being offered through LFS that brings it to $44,600.
It seems like a good price, but I just wanted to double check.
Btw, I'm located in Northern California.
Thanks!
