thanks for the kind words guys... im just excited for having a BRAND NEW CAR... this is my 1st. i know its not the smartest decision when it comes to money to buy a brand new car, but i had to do it... im sick and tired of dealing w/high mileage cars and repairs and all that, so i figured i had to pull the trigger sooner or later and w/winter right around the corner... u cant go wrong with 4 wheel drive... so im excited

well, i think i got a great deal... but i could be wrong... when its all said and done (all the dealer fees, taxes, registration fees, plates AND financing charges... yes, those are included)... the total out of pocket would be around $55k... let me know if thats a good deal b/c i dont know

That's about what I paid for my fully loaded RWD. They don't seem to be dealing much on the fully loaded cars - you've got to leave ML and/or Nav out to get a price break. Of course, I didn't press that hard - I wanted the car and thought the price reasonable for what I was getting...and for the fact I was getting it so soon. I'm sure by January they'll be cheaper, but who wants to wait that long?

well, i guess i didnt get a good deal then but at least i didnt get taken either but mine is the fully loaded (ML/park assist) and AWD... i cant wait until they finally get my car to the dealership!!!! and drive off with it!!

Congrats on the car.

I know how it is with new cars. Everytime I go looking for a car, I start with the used market. Somehow, I always end up with a new car. Never fails. This has happened with my last 5 cars.

dude post the price. i just picked up my GS350 AWD nav/w no ML 45,326+650 for XM from Ray Catena. whats the top secret POST THE PRICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The guy said on-the-road for around $55K, so it's pretty much on par I would think, not a great deal.
Ray Catena, don't they put their super big ugly dealer emblem on your car? That alone would be a show stopper right there. On negotiating, I would say cut $1000 off just for me to have your advertisement on my car.

Ray Catena is definitely the best bet in the north east. i believe theyre the largest dealer in the north east. here is my break down

45,326.00 GS350 AWD nav/w no ML
650.00 XM installed
3850.49 Tax 8.375% NYS sales tax
________
49,826.49
125.00 DMV
199.00 BS document fee
________
50,150.49 out the door
