    where did you buy your 350 at? I'll be going to Sewell or Parkplace in the DFW area. Since I don't want navigation, I'm hoping I'll get a good deal for it..that's a great deal for all that. :blush:

    i live in SoCAL. i think the best thing to do is do some reseach before you buy. Try the internet service departments from different dealers and get multiple quotes. Make sure they give the quote in writing (email), then start calling around and see how much lower the would go. you should be able to get the car for little less than 40k OTD w/o nav. good luck

    Have you put money down on the car yet? I got a match at Plano Lexus..$36,900. We just test drive the RX..nice...Tony Authur
  • choonychoony Member Posts: 12
    thainguyend,
    what is included in that price that Tony quoted you? I have been emailing him as well.
    thanks. :)

    I talked to the sales person, he told me MSRP is now $900 off, while invoice is only $580 off. Based on this, I'm hoping to get the deal ~$36,820. Planning go to close the deal next Friday once I'm back to Dallas.

    Will keep y'all posted... Let me know if you have better news.

    Hello. I'm looking at a RX 350 with the Navigation/Premium package. Do most people in Dallas buy FWD? I was thinking about getting AWD for those rare occurances where there are ice storms, freezing rain, etc.

    MSRP is 45683 incl destination on Lexus.com. Is that before or after the 900 discount for July? What's a good price? Edmunds doesn't list this 6188 premium package with navigation. What is the true invoice price?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.
  • thainguyendthainguyend Member Posts: 8
    Choony- You can mention Michael and he will work the package with you. Have fun.

    Premium Package (This is the standard SouthWest package)

    -18" Aluminum Alloy Wheels with All-Season Tir
    -Multi-Stage Heated Front Seats with Rain-Sens Wipers and Headlamp Washers.
    -Leather Trim Interior, PowerTilt/Telescoping Steering Wheel with Memory,Roof Rack -with Rails, One-Touch Open/Close Moonroof, Illuminated
    -Towing Prep Package Includes: Transmission Cooler, Heavy Duty Alternator and Radiator
    -Cargo Mat
    -Wheel Locks

    Check out kbb.com ..it will answer your invoice question.
  • bigsmooth469bigsmooth469 Member Posts: 12
    Not really. KBB's invoice price is the same as Lexus.com. I'm trying to figure out what the new MSRP is.

    I called a local dealer and wsa told Mark Levinson was only available if you chose the rear seat DVD. What's a good price for this vehicle? MSRP is 48344. Thanks
  • bigsmooth469bigsmooth469 Member Posts: 12
    OK, so for AWD with Premium and Mark Levinson/Rear DVD, being quoted 45.1K on MSRP of 48903. Being told its about 1100 above invoice. The car would have to be traded to be brought in. I've seen people get them for $500 above invoice. Should I hold out for a better deal?
  • lvn098lvn098 Member Posts: 26
    I can't understand how could you get the car for $38463+TTL. Out the door $41830ish. It was for Nav+pre+FW.

    The lowest I just got today is $2000 more than what you've got.

    Can you give me the contact info? Send to lvn098@yahoo.com

    Thanks,
  • suntradersuntrader Member Posts: 2
    Just bought it for $1800 below invoice.
    MSRP was $45,023, invoice was $39473, and I paid $37679.
    (loaded with options).
    Hope that helps you buyers out there.
  • maximafanmaximafan Member Posts: 592
    I just saw your post on the RX350 thread and you had the
    MSRP listed as $43,023. Did you mean that instead of
    $45,023?
  • hockeytapehockeytape Member Posts: 3
    If the invoice price has been reduced by $580, as the earlier post says, how does this affect the dealer's cost for vehicles that were delivered to them, say, 3 weeks ago, but which are still sitting unsold on the lot? Can I assume that Lexus will adjust the dealer's cost basis for those older, unsold vehicles that arrived before the price reduction?
  • lmcjcaolmcjcao Member Posts: 16
    I believe the unsold vehicle invoice will be adjusted accordingly, at least the dealer I talked to agree to honor the reduction on the vehicle in-stock.
  • ccruzerccruzer Member Posts: 3
    Great price looks like $1150 below invoice.
    I live in bay area, planning to buy similar configuration as yours (without NAV) ASAP.
    Bamboo Pearl with Ivory Leather + FWD + Premimum Plus package
    Can you pl send me the Sales person details.
    Appreciate a quick response
  • ccruzerccruzer Member Posts: 3
    wow!! $1800 below invoice for 2007 Lexus RX 350
    Can you pl give us your RX350 specs and dealer location?
    Send me the Sales person details.
    I need to get one ASAP.
    Appreciate a quick response.

    lmcjcao-

    I am waiting for finance and stuff to pickup my car. How do you do with your RX350?
  • lizacolbylizacolby Member Posts: 14
    I just purchased a used RX 330 from Ron Coury at Stevens Creek Lexus in Santa Clara. He was absolutely great to work with and -- if anyone can do this locally -- he can. I shopped Putnam and Serramonte as well. Ron was far superior not only in listening to what my needs were, but also giving me a great price without all of the b.s. that usually accompanies a car purchase. Call him and tell him Lynn sent you.

    Enjoy!

    Oh... and one has got to see the Stevens Creek Lexus site to believe it. It is an unbelievable place to buy a vehicle and to get it serviced.

    Hi thainguyend:

    Did you get yours at 36,900 + TTL?

    I am trying to get the same package and the best quote I got so far is around 37200 + TTL. With the reduced package price ($900) announced yesterday, I guess they can do a little better.

    What do you guys think?
  • lvn098lvn098 Member Posts: 26
    thainguyend,

    What kind of options do you get with $36.9 + TTL?
    I assume it's just a FWD with Premium Package, right?

    I am looking for a FWD w/Premium Plus and NAV. What do you think I should pay? $40.5k + TTL is reasonable enough? I can't get them to lower.

    Thanks,
  • nnslicknnslick Member Posts: 7
    thainguyend,

    Thanks for the info. I will contact them.
    BTW, did you finance with them?
  • lmcjcaolmcjcao Member Posts: 16
    Took my delivery today (Breakwater Blue/Ivory) paid $39,367 out of the door for FWD + Premium package + 18" wheels.

    To be honest, I would go with BMW X5 if its for myself, but for my wife, its the perfect choice on handling wise...

    Have fun, guys!
  • nnslicknnslick Member Posts: 7
    lmcjcao,

    Congrats!
    I assume this price is for the package below with heated front seats, is that right?

    Also, did you get it from Park Place in Plano? or from Sewell?

    Anyway enjoy your car and thanks for sharing!

    ----------------------------------------------------
    Premium Package - Luxury Value Edition includes:
    - Leather-trimmed interior
    - Power tilt-and-telescopic steering column with memory
    - Illuminated entry system
    - Power tilt-and-slide moonroof with one-touch open/close and sliding sunshade

    Additional Options:
    - Two-level heated front seats (includes rain-sensing variable intermittent wipers and headlamp washers)
    - 18-in alloy wheels (235/55VR18 and full-size spare)
    - Towing prep package
    - Cargo mat
    - Wheel locks
    ---------------------------------------------------
  • lmcjcaolmcjcao Member Posts: 16
    nnslick,

    You are right abut the package...

    I got it from Park Place Lexus in Grapevine, the sales person I dealt with is great, he tried to match and beat whatever offer I could get elsewhere, at the end, I got it $36,804 + TTL. It might not be the best, but I'm satisfied with the buying experience.

    If anyone want the sales contact information, please let me know.
  • kirakatkirakat Member Posts: 7
    Hey all. A few questions about dealing with Park Place. Will they give a no hassle internet price, or do you still have to bargain? Also, I noticed they have several RX330s which appear to have been loaner or demo cars with very low mileage. Any idea on how low they go on those? TIA

    I got the same deal as lmcjcao's at Park Place in Plano, TX and picked mine today!:)

    Thanks everyone for sharing!

  • choonychoony Member Posts: 12
    nnslick,
    can you remind me again what package you got and for what price at ParkPlace Plano. I"m days away from getting one.

    did you deal with Tony Arthur?
    thanks! :)
  • nnslicknnslick Member Posts: 7
    chooney,

    See message #83 for the package content. When you go to lexus.com and build your own RX-350, it is the second package presented. I think the main difference compared to the first package is the heated front seats.

    I got it from the saleperson who gave me a test drive a few weeks ago, not from TA.

    thainguyend-
    Have you got yours yet?
  • phongddophongddo Member Posts: 11
    Dear Sir/Madame,

    If you don't mind, please share your contact information with us. We are looking at the RX-350 with the exact package, except the color is Bamboo Pearl. We are a two-time customer with Park Place, bought a '93 ES-300 and '99 GS-300 with them. The RX-350 will replace the ES-300 after years of reliable service (165,000 miles). We live in Grand Prairie so either Sewell in Ft Worth or Park Place in Grapevine are both convenience. But we would not mind doing business with them again. Many thanks in advance.

    Sorry about that ... did not mean to ask for personal contact information, simply some sales contact information if possible. Anyway, we will head to Park Place @ Gravevine next Saturday and see how it goes. The numbers gathered from this thread will be extremely useful in giving us a place to start.
  • jorgegvbjorgegvb Member Posts: 15
    Anyone seen this option anywhere? I was told it is pretty rare and neither of the two Lexus dealerships in southeast Virginia have one.
  • guestguest Member Posts: 770
    I just bought an RX 350 with the Mark Levinson package. If you love a great sound, you'll be happy with it. It did seem very rare when I was looking. You might try ordering it?

    Here's my recent post in the leasing board:

    First, a thank you to all of the great info on the board. It helped during the 3 month process of looking for the right car at a good price. After dealing with dozens of salesmen, leasing specialists, European Delivery Plan people, etc...and having a full 90% lie to or mislead me, this board was a welcome respite. Most people in the auto trade will say anything to get you into the dealership, which makes the process that much longer.

    It was very difficult to find a black Lexus RX 350 with Premium/Mark Levinson/black interior/AWD when the time came to lease. I really wanted the black interior but could not find it anywhere in the state. So I gave up on the black interior and the AWD. I got a Black 350 with Mark Levinson, NAV and RES.

    MSRP: $48,243
    Cap Cost: 42,450
    Aquisition: 600
    Residual: 26039 (54%)
    MF: .00151

    Monthly payment: 639

    Fees (DMV): 394

    Love the car! Hope this helps someone else. It's confusing with the reductions in the packages, etc... So Carman, how'd I do?

    I plan to buy the vehicle at the end of the 3 years for the $26K and keep it for a year, until the warranty gives up. I get free car washes the whole time I have the car, 1st service free, and free shuttles to the airport. I'm happy It's the nicest car I've ever had.
  • holycoupeholycoupe Member Posts: 11
    This internet sales person is deceptive. I asked for the quote on the model 2007 RX350 AWD with M.Levinson package. He quoted $39,530, which gave me a little skeptical thought. So I confirmed if the option I provided, did you quote it right? then he replied if you want the navigation, it costs little more...but he was willing to throw premium package. And guess what? I became not to trust sales person ever again. M.Levinson package itself comes with navigation, AND premium package, and you can't install it BY ITSELF!. In this case sales person presumed I have no clue about the package they offer. Now, this person doesn't give me answer and I just have to assume the guy got fired.
  • jorgegvbjorgegvb Member Posts: 15
    Where did you find a '07 RX with the Mark Levinison option? My local dealer says there are none to be found. They even told me they are only being shipped to west coast dealers, so I cannot even order one. Can this be right? I am in Virginia. I would buy one today if I could find one.
  • maximafanmaximafan Member Posts: 592
    My understanding is you can only get the
    Mark Levinson stereo with the navigation.
    Is this what you mean, or did you mean the
    ML without the Nav? Now, if it includes the
    navigation, I find it hard to believe that it
    can't even be ordered! You might want to check
    with other dealers in your area or close by.
  • jorgegvbjorgegvb Member Posts: 15
    Mark Levinson stereo with the navigation system is what I'm looking for.
  • my3rdrxmy3rdrx Member Posts: 167
    I'm not sure where in VA you live, but if you're interested, you could try Lexus of Silver Spring in MD. I also live in VA but have just ordered an RX350 with "Performance Package" from them after being given the run-around from VA dealers. I found L-SS very easy to work with.

    Let me know if you want the name of the salesman.
  • phongddophongddo Member Posts: 11
    First, many thanks to various folks providing inputs to this board. Just reached a deal with Park Place @ Grapevine (TX) on a RX-350 + Premium Pkg + Additional Options (as described @ Lexus.com) for 36.7+TTL. We probably could have done it at 36.6+TTL but we are satisfied with the experience. We will wait after 8/15, however, to take the $500 bonus from Lexus Pursuit. So overall, with the MSRP @ 40818, it was a pretty good deal.
  • lvn098lvn098 Member Posts: 26
    Got one delivered on 8/15 as well. Around 42.9 drive-out. Could not get lower than that in South East.
  • hungt23hungt23 Member Posts: 2
    I just got an RX 350 Saturday with the options below. Drive out price was $39.5K at Sterling McCall Lexus in Houston. Also included was tinted glass, striped, and plastic bras for the front end and rear view mirrors. I don't know how much extra would these cost but they didn't charge me for them. The price of $39.5 was turned down at Westside Lexus so I went in to Sterling and told them I would paid $39.5 or I would leave. Less than 5 minutes later, the salesperson came back with the agreement. I am still wondering if I can get it cheaper than this. Anyway, I was prepared to pay $40K drive out so $39.5 is good enough.
    Here is the package I received:
    ----------------------------------------------------
    Premium Package - Luxury Value Edition includes:
    - Leather-trimmed interior
    - Power tilt-and-telescopic steering column with memory
    - Illuminated entry system
    - Power tilt-and-slide moonroof with one-touch open/close and sliding sunshade

    Additional Options:
    - Two-level heated front seats (includes rain-sensing variable intermittent wipers and headlamp washers)
    - 18-in alloy wheels (235/55VR18 and full-size spare)
    - Towing prep package
    - Cargo mat
    - Wheel locks
  • coreyh9coreyh9 Member Posts: 5
    Is it AWD or FWD?
  • tx_av8tortx_av8tor Member Posts: 4
    That's a great price. Can you share with whom you dealt with at Sterling McCall?
