Congrats on the new 350 skip.

How the heck did you get a non f-sport up to almost 52k?

Don't worry - they know what kind of deal they gave you - they wouldn't be in business if they didn't.

Enjoy your new ride!

It looks like they are hovering between 70%-74% right now per Edmunds forums.

http://forums.edmunds.com/discussion...ed/lexus/lexus

Just go to whichever one you are interested in (250/350) and look at the most recent lease thread. They are posting up the current RVs for June/July in there.

Default is this a good deal?

Hi
I have a certificate from Truecar for a

2014 IS 350 RWD
- Black with Red rioja interior
- F sport pkg
- Blind spot monitoring
- NAV
- Trunk mat, cargo net, wheel locks, illuminated door sills, rear bumper applique
MSRP $47 583

for a price of $44543 with 0 document fee

Is this a good deal? Should I push a bit further? maybe $44k?

thanks

PS: Could a OEM backup camera be installed later?

PS1: I am trading in an 2013 Acura RDX and I have also been considering the oncoming NX 200t sport pkg, but I think that the is350 would offer a superior driving experience

Hey guys just got a lease offer:

IS350F
MSRP: $48,212
Residual: $33.748
27 months
10k miles a year
$0 down
$423 per month before tax ($457 after tax)

Don't have the sale price or MF, it was done over the phone.

Sounds like a great deal. Do I pull the trigger on this or push for more?

That looks pretty solid to me, I'm assuming no discount because that's a 70% residual.

Is there any down side to this deal? Pretty new to this. Not sure if I'm missing some time of catch with this price.

Which dealership is this from? I'm wondering if you could negotiate the price down a bit, but that monthly seems about right for a good deal. I'd probably roll with it, if it's the car you want.

Default Is350 awd

Anyone have suggestions on which dealership to negotiate with for a great deal on a 2014 AWD IS350? I'm on the northwest coast and willing to drive up to 1000 miles. Have been in contact with a few already, but none are willing to go lower than $4000 off msrp. Thanks!!

I think it's just timing, I got 4.8k off at the end of November, you'll probably see better pricing when the 2015's hit the lot

If you read back through this thread and forum, you'll see that many easily beat truecar, Costco and most other "buying" services. Email as many dealers you can within your buying distance and request quotes on exactly what you want - be specific and make them be specific. It will become apparent to you which dealers are willing to negotiate honestly.
