Default Hello All, I leased IS250 AWD

Hello everyone
so I got a deal today
36month / 12k milege
msrp $40090
out of pocket $1500
monthly payment $486 (tax included)
Color - Gray/Black
HID, NAV, Prem Pack, Rear Lip Spoiler, ACCESSORIES

I don't think I got a great deal but I'll still love the car!!!!!!

I'll be picking it up tommorow morning and I'm very excited =D

Dealer offered me the $5000 coverage thing and Wheel+Tire Repair coverage
and I wasn't sure if those were necessery so i decided not to get them

PS. I have a question about the aux port thing

Can I connect my ipod without the ipod interface kit installed?

Will the dealer give me the wire that connects my ipod through the aux port for free or is there a stock wire?

If not then how much do they cost?

Congrats and welcome to the club. Nice to have another AWD here.

No, you don't need the the iPod kit. You will need to control everything from your iPod though and not through your stereo when you play it.

No, dealer won't give you the cord. You can buy one from Radioshack or your local electronic store for cheap....$5 or so. Or cheaper online.

And yes, that's a little high on the price...IMO

Yes u can. dealer will charge u for the ipod adapter which is pretty expensive. u can get one at radio shack u might need an adapter. if the ipod has a head phone jack u only need the wire but if not u need an adapter and wire. $10-25

Welcome to the club

i bought mine at radioshack. it's a male to male jack. make sure you get the stereo one. If I remember correctly, yes it was $5. The lease is somewhat high IMO but then again, my family and I never lease cars. It's just not our thing

First of all, congrats with your car!
What a deal, I'm not sure if this is a great deal in USA, but for me it is a very good deal. In the Netherlands the car is much more expensive (42.500euro) and the tariffs for leasing are much higher.
You have got a low mileage..12k on yearly basis? I drive almost 40-50 k a year, with a monthly payment of 1400 euro (including gas) so like 1750 USD.

You lucky bastards

Enjoy your car!
