I am looking at an IS350. I was wondering.... what normally happens at the December to remember event? Good interest rates? Lease specials... nothing?

It's the biggest sale of the year. There's a ton of cars, lease specials and special interest rates. Usually it's geared towards what they want to sell the most, but there should be a small savings on the IS but not a lot so don't get too excited about it. When I got my RX when it first came out I think the lease payment was something like $10 or $15 per month cheaper. And when I got my ES when it first came out it was about the same amount difference. Both of these cars were leased a few months after a new body style was introduced. If you are financing there's good interest rates going on right now. If you are planning on getting one in December due to other delay reasons, then by all means wait for December to Remember. Also the November/ December allocation is already being built, there might be a shortage of certain packages/colors so if you miss the chance to get what you want you'd have to wait until mid January because Lexus the factory shuts down right before Christmas and doesn't re-open until after January 1st. Sometimes the dealers run out of cars during this time so if you do buy/lease in December, get one in early December. I look at it like this: If you go to Nordstrom for a sale you try to go right after it starts for best selection otherwise if you go the last day then there's slim pickings left. Good luck.
