Default Good Deal? What do you think...

http://preowned.parkplacelexusmissio...f-3470639.html

So Cal (OC) area. CPO with only 1,900 miles. My only hesitation is it doen't have ML sound.

It's got 1900 mi, but I still think it's a good deal w/wo the ML especially if you can knock the price down a few more notchs. GO GET IT!

Yep, I answered you in another forum. It's an early VIN, but if you want it, go for it. IMHO, it's the best color, and the standard sound system (Lexus Premium) is really not that bad. You could always upgrade it later. The Price, again IMHO, is unbeatable.

Great price! Even though it doesn't have ML that no problem, you can upgrade it like lowrideraz said I'd say go for it if its something you can do Great color too

Nice. With the speed and sound of the motor, you'll forget about the ML .

oh I didn't know upgrading the stereo system was possible - how much could it be done for? Is it worth it for the price?

The link is dead now though so I guess the car is sold. I wonder what the final price was (under the assumption the seller was able to shave some more money off what it was listed at)

It was a bit under $46k for a dealer's IS-F. There was one more IS-F which had a nice price at $46,991 in Lexus of Edison in New Jersey - it was used w/ 5k-ish miles, but that's been sold now.

On Autotrader.com, all the IS-Fs that are used start at $49k+ now.

Yeh, watch those ads carefully...I saw a couple great prices when I was looking and then in the fine details it says "when you put 2995 down" or something to that effect so the great price that grabs your attention is really 3K more...that is BS, IMO, and would keep me from buying from them right there. What other games will they be playing?
