Default IS-C pricing (checked KBB)

I notice there are not many IS-C's on the board. Trying to get some feedback in regards to pricing and what the "real world" prices that are being paid. Also, dealer profits and holdbacks would be nice to know as well.

I've check KBB pricing (invoice) and I usually work from there. However, dealers seem to be pretty stubborn with their prices on the verts.

If you own a IS vert, please chime in (PM if you are more comfortable that way) with the price you paid before taxes.

I am in SoCal (duh..why else would I be interested in a vert )

KBB is practically worthless for this type of thing. For a real world idea of what others are paying, check out the TMV calculator at edmunds.com, or check out a direct buy (no haggle) site like carsdirect.com.

Good luck!

I checked a few of those sites (can't remember which ones now) and the most I saw below MSRP was $200. I ended up paying sticker when they offered a little more than I was expecting on my trade.

Damn? Was he one of the first? I would ask about the options, but they don't vary much, don't even know if they off Mark Levinson.

I paid less than that, but not much, for mine and it did have ML and intuitive park assist. Has just about everything but the adaptive cruise.

yeah, when i saw the price of the IS 350C, i immediately thought of having it nearly as much as the F. the C certainly works for so cal weather, but damn....the F is practically the same price.

In California, you should be able to get that car out the door for 53-54K. You're not going to get that for 51K out the door. Go to www.Carsdirect.com.

That's with ML and all that jazz.
