Hey so i talked to the guy for this is350

http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...e=b&make=LEXUS

and he drop the price from $31,998 to $30,000

hes a dealer however its for a private party that he is selling the car so which brings me to the question should i do a priavte party purchase or dealer? im guessing private party is less expensive overall?

whats your take is it worth it? i feel bad re posting a new thread but i want to take others word for it

this is what he said

then i asked

if its for another person you are selling the car for then we can take a

1)hike on sales tax cant we?

Also this leads to more questions

2) is it clean title?

3)do you have the carfax at hand? (most nessary)

4)and if any work on the car like paint repairs or car accidents

5) whats the final price otd? then what is their to add?

you can use zip code 95019 or zipcode 95045 which ever is lowest price

his response was

then i reply with

is the title at hand? which method is lowest price? if i understand this right you are saying theirs private party sell and dealer. im in watsonville / freedom area santa cruz county zipcode 95019

whats OTD with everything?

his resopnse was


its about $2,480 in tax? i feel the same way if it was in person or dealer as long as i can save money thats what matters. i mean no other benefit in buying in dealer


So let the discussion begin

Gus, if you're at all interested in leasing, I'm doing a lease trade on my 06 IS350 w/9,700 miles that's loaded with Lux/ML.

Take a look if you're interested, as it might be a better deal for you than what you're looking at.

Gus, when you say "lexus of pleason" do you mean Lexus of Pleasanton? Thats where I got my 350. Them quoting you for $41.9K is about right. In the ball park at least. Mine was a $41.2K.

Gus738

Yes lexus of Pleasanton corrected. 08 is 350 new with luxury pakage eric claims its fullly loaded with every option including ml navi and such, silver or smokey SGM? $41.900 is that the best i can come up with? i will have to be financing
