Been in contact with a dealer in San Diego. Just got this quote:
2016 White/Red IS 350 F Sport
Navigation/Mark Levinson Audio
Radar Cruise Control w/ pre collision
Accy Package
MSRP $48,975.
Asking Price is $44,600
$48,825 out-the-door.
Dealer is telling me this INCLUDES a Transportation fee since the car is located in LA. I need help deciding if this is a good deal or not? From all my research it seems like an okay deal but I can probably get cheaper? Dealer seems really antsy for my business. I am not sure what my next move is? Would I be a fool for taking this deal or should I try and get this cheaper? What should I say? Thanks

Totally agree with the members above. Also don't pay a "transportation fee". Lexus dealer in Beverly Hills tried to pull that one on me and it was like 500 bucks. I went to Carlsbad, they got the car for me via a dealer swap and didn't tack on that "transportation fee". I even got it around 1500 under invoice. Same setup as you are looking at. White/Rioja Red IS350. Keep dealing man. They need your business, not the other way around. Good luck!

Thanks for the quick responses guys. I got a KBB quote on the car at $43.2k - $44.7k Fair market range and an invoice at $44.7k.
I'm going to ask the dealer about the invoice price since he sort of strategically dodged that haha. Also, going to ask him to waive the $900 "transportation" fee which seemed pretty steep to me.

Just put down the deposit and I'll get the IS350 F Sport tomorrow. Got him down to $43.460. Not a steal but I think I got a decent deal. Can't wait to pick it up tomorrow!

Yes, that was the vehicle selling price. My out the door cost was actually right around $52k. I fell for the stupid extended warranties. Definitely a mistake on my part looking back at it now. Glad I got that car but not happy about my stupidity when being upsold. Especially since I told myself going in that I wouldn't be doing it. Oh well. Lesson learned, car is epic. Can't wait to drive her more tomorrow.

Personally, i think the only one worth getting is the wheel and tire protection plan.

I got the extended warranty up to 100k miles, the wheel/tire protection and also the super wax job or whatever it is. Honestly, I wish I didn't get any but I guess having a $50k car it's nice to have some peace of mind with that stuff. Idk? Did any of you guys opt for any of these?
