Default Deals on GS 350 F?

What kind of deals are people getting on GS 350 F sports? I'm interested in one, and wondering what kind of discounts people are getting.

thanks

I'm in Bellevue, WA. Honestly, if the deal is substantial enough I'm open to travelling.

Well, Miami is quite far from Bellevue, Wa. However, if the deal is substantial enough, I could convince myself to get away from the rain for a while and enjoy some sunshine in Miami :-)

Lexus of Bellevue has a bunch of F-Sports in stock right now, why not go in and work with them on some numbers?

Discounts are zero to none unless you qualify for applicable conquest buyer or loyalty rebate. If you're looking for heavy discounts, wait until later in the year to find them. The car is a hot seller.

Yep, I got zero off the sticker. Good luck finding a deal on a 27 day old model.

Try to contact the internet sales team at Lexus of Concord (CA) - I had sent them a request earlier for a premium GS and their first response was 49.9k (MSRP 52.5k). You might be able to get them to give you a similar offer (below MSRP) for the GS-F.
There were a couple of other dealerships in CA that came up with quotes that were close to this.

HTH

Edit: This is without ANY loyalty or conquest incentives. Also, CA is a little closer to you than going to FL

So invoice + ~$500 on the Premium model then.

you will certainly be able to get some discounts if you tell them you are out of state, meaning they need to work the numbers... is it ultimately worth the hassle? up to you.

For instance CA dealer would know only way they would make sale to you would be good price...

Awfully close. I had asked for a quote for premium with nav and park assist and 18" - 49.9k was their quote. invoice is $48,640 (so, about invoice + $1260). If I had pushed them further, they might have gone further down. Dunno

But yes, you were right about it being available at below MSRP in N. CA (I initially misinterpreted your abbrev as North Carolina, and then, later tried North California).

What does "invoice" mean now that Lexus has changed the mark-up to fool edcuated buyers? Are to be believe they make only 3k on a car they made 5k on last year? None of the dealers are making less in my opinion.

Invoice is $49.5 on that car as destination is $875.

Forget the discount, be GLAD if you dont pay MARK-UP! Unless its a ugly color combo and they have multiple of them in inventory.
