Default How much down payment did you throw down for an IS350 F sport 2014-2015

I've been waiting for the December to Remember to event (Better deals on 2015 IS than now?), but everytime I see an 3rd gen IS on the road I get jumpy. Should I just bite the bullet and pick one up now? If so what's a good amount for down payment? 20%?

BTW (I'm asking for down payment on a used Lexus, new Lexus would be good to know as well)

I'm considering purchasing, not leasing.

Also this might be great to know for future Lexus customers.


Thanks

In the same boat as you, hoping to get a great deal on a used Lexus in Nov/Dec. I'm assuming you're talking about financing (you generally don't want money down on a lease). 20% is a good ballpark.

100%

I do not believe in car payments. I would get a bus pass first. Yes, I know I am old school (and old).

I had the cash but only put about 15% down. At 1% interest, I'd leverage all day long.
