36030 + 3695 + 3990 = 43715 + tax and deler proc would probably be over 45K.... so 39990 is over 5K off.
I didnt get Nav, its ML only Tax here is 6.25% for cars

yes sir, before TTL it was 37300

On the stranger side of things it seems the IS350 insurance might be cheaper than my prelude's insurance according to a quote we got

Got about 3500 off MSRP, OTD price was 39880 or so cant remember exactly. I was extremely lucky, I planned to special order a 07 in starfire pearl/black, x package + ML. But a local dealer told me they had the above and gave me a nice discount. So no more paying MSRP with a 4 month wait

That is exactly what i wanted.. Only with the nav.. Nice color choice!
Congrats!!!

That happens. The IS is 100x safer than a Prelude.

He got a 2006. You are getting a 2007. Big difference in pricing right now between those 2 years...

Starfire Pearl/Sterling with Nav+ML+18s+HID
40K +tax +dealer proc( about 41400 OTD).

So you paid $1500 less than me.. and you got the sports package and you dont have to wait for 4 months
