Default How much would you pay for a 2012 IS350?

I found two new 2012 IS350's that I'm interested in. They both have the luxury package with navigation. One has the F-sport suspension and F-sport exhaust and has a sticker price of 50k and the other has a sticker price of 47k. The reason I ask is because dealers usually let the older models go for cheaper. I was lucky a few years ago and bought a new 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland with a sticker price of $47k for $31k out the door on January 4th, 2009. I know Lexus has a better resale value than Jeep, well maybe except for the Rubicons, but what would you guys offer for these cars?

I bought a 2011 350 last Xmas. It was at $47k, I paid $40k and got the Fsport exhaust thrown in. I would go in with a target of $40k.

I did a quick search and all of the 2012 IS350s (only 6 within 500 miles of me) have a price tag of $40,000. Some are AWD models and with the exception of one, all are around 10k miles and have Nav.

Seems a little high but the 350s where I'm at at priced about the same at 47k fully loaded with nav. I just picked up a 2011 350 awd a couple months ago for just over $30k though, 22k miles used. So you can make the choice to buy it new or save a bit and picked up lightly used. No real difference I think.

I tried going that route with the one I have now. I bought it with 23k miles on it from out of state, which turned out to be a big mistake even though I had an appraiser go look at it. I learned my lesson though.
