Default Hopefully I got a good price on car??

Just purchased a 2009 Lexus LS460 AWD with 68k miles. The car is CPO.

It has Mark Levinson, Air suspension(sport/comfort), parking sensors, park assist, heated/ventilated front seats, heated rear saets, rear powershade, heated steering wheel. CarFax was clean 2 owner.

I got the car for $30,997 + 549 doc fee. I feel like it was a fair price. What do you guys think?

It's kind of late to be asking now. However, just to see if it was a fair price plug all the particulars into Edmunds, KBB and NADA, average the three and that should give you a good idea.

Great price! Can't go wrong with a lex. You will get your money's worth out if it for sure.

Yeah I know it's to late! But I just want reassurance! I was having some doubt. I wasn't particular wanting AWD. Besides me traveling 500+ miles to buy one I didn't have a lot of options in my price range locally. The ones far away in my range to afford also weren't CPO. I was a bit hesitant on AWD cause I didn't want issues I've read about. So the CPO gave me some comfort.

I sold my IS350 so this is a big change! I wanted something comfy and classy!

Swirvin, I was laughing when I read your post. Even if you did pay more, no need to beat yourself up over it. You bought a great car that I am certain you will be very happy with, regardless if you found you slightly overpaid.

That was a great price for a CPO 2009!

I agree that the price you paid for that car is pretty great! Especially AWD, air suspension AND CPO! Well done.

LOL @Nospinzone!

@sktn77a I got car from Hendrick in Charlotte. The salesman claimed they had just gotten the day before and they had not even certified it yet. He also told me that the car was priced incorrectly and if we didn't purchase it they would mark car up $2k+

You have to always be skeptical of anything a dealership claims... They would not budge on price of car which irks me. They did however give us $700 more for our trade-in vs carmax which was nice. I felt like it was a good deal so we purchased car. I'll post pictures once I pickup car. They had to finish the certification. Two new tires and check brakes, etc.....

I appreciate all the responses! They have definitely made me feel great about the purchase!

When I just read my post again I think it could have sounded like I was saying you slightly overpaid. That is not what I meant. I meant even if you found out that you did, it didn't matter.

So I went to Edmunds and plugged in the specifics as best as I could. I put in my zip, and dark blue color which resulted in a $257 reduction in value, but I may have missed some options.. Anyway it came out to dealer retail of $33,138. So it looks like you got a deal! Congrats!

I have the same car. Bought new. It sounds like you got a fair to better-than-fair (favoring you) deal. You'll like the car. I've never kept a car this long, and will probably go another year or two. Congrats.

I'm glad you guys agree the deal was fair!
