Any idea, how much I can negotiate on RC F? MSRP is 72K. Fully loaded is 78K. I don't lease it, but buy it outright.

that's all they are offering until you go into the dealer and start to work a deal.


Most dealers won't haggle or discuss pricing and discounts (other than the manufacturer advertised ones) over the phone or email, they want your butt in the dealer.

contact internet sales guys at Jim Falk of beverly hills.

They offered me something along the lines of 7or 8k before rebate.

I didn't take the offer and bought an ATS-V instead.

In Texas, I haven't been able to get a dealer give more than approximately 3k off before the 5k discount.

I had a dealer in San Diego offer me $10K under MSRP by email. Local dealers offered to match it.

The GS F production numbers are slated for way low in sales chart...

At the release, most dealerships in the USA got 1 - I don't expect many choices to be on the lots across the US..

Especially with the $87K MSRP !!

Most dealerships in SoCal or other high inventory markets have been doing $10K + off for the last 3-6 months..

When the recently announced $5k Lexus incentive, most dealerships won't even mention a deeper discount was available..

They will revert back to MSRP price minus the $5K discount on remaining 2015's

The smarter dealerships with lots of inventory will do whatever it takes to get the 2015's off their lots..

Some have been lingering for over 200 days

Happy Hunting !!!

That's because it's overpriced like the RCF's are.....I think GSF sales will be worse the the RCF sales, only time will tell though.

The RC F suffers from too much supply with little to no demand...

The GS F, although too early to tell, will not suffer from an over abundant supply..

Basic Economics 101 - I hope every GS F sells as it arrives at the dealership

Local dealer has a black GS F for over a week now sitting in the showroom. It could
Be the winter season and the region dealers may have bit of a challenge selling these cars. But I could be wrong.

I will say though, that the people that know what it is have nothing but compliments, those that don't know what it is have lots of questions..


but it is a niche car, so sales will be soft, hopefully Lexus doesn't kill it off and sink the value of it in doing so.
I was at a jewelry store to talk to the watchmaker about servicing my watch. A salesperson came up to me and asked if my car was a LFA. That made me smile and I told him it was an RC F and my car was about $300,000 cheaper

Who have you talked to? I found Texas dealers to be very motivated and gave great deals?
