IS250 Manual, how much off MSRP?
I was thinking of buying an IS250 base, no options with the 6-speed manual, how much do you think I could get off MSRP / how close to invoice? I would imagine that less people are willing to purchase this car with a manual transmission.

Yeah, if I can get close to invoice (or even invoice) for one I’ll take it. Plus, I want one in black with tan, which is a fairly common color combination. I’m thinking of getting the car the last week of December.

$2K off? No way. Especially since these cars need to be special ordered in all lieklyhood. No way do you get $2K off for any IS250/350 and especially not one that isn't even on the lot.

The IS250 manual doesnt need to be special ordered. I've seen and test drive the IS250 6MT that was sitting on the dealer lot.

What do you mean by "have yet to see a MT"? Do you happen to have access to the distribution of cars? If so, I'm a little curious to know just how many MT w/ Nav there are. Thanks.

BTW: I don’t know how much sun you get over in CO, but in SoFLA a car with black leather is a heat trap.

I did get a bunch of quotes and I think I will travel a ways out of state much further south to get about $2500 or more off MSRP. I can post the dealer name if it works out.
Then I will have a 600 mile drive home or maybe just pay to have it shipped.
