I agree with you 100%. That is why I asked him who the dealer was. There was also someone that said they got $1000 below invoice through Costco, which I know is not possible either.

I just wish people would make it real instead of either making up stuff or not having their facts straight. Misinformation does not help anyone.

Right now the dealerships don't have to offer much, if anything. As the 2016 RX350 receives more accolades and recognition, I anticipate it will be so hot that it will be awhile for any decent discounts. I expect it to move up on US News Car Rankings once the Safety ratings are announced. It has already received an award from Kelley Blue Book. I anticipate that Edmunds will give it an A rating. They gave the Volvo XC90 a B, which is currently rated the highest on US News.

I have been driving mine for a week and it is really amazing. I have driven quite a few vehicles and this is my favorite right now. I research cars like crazy and buy a car at least every 1-2 years. Last year I purchased the 2014 Range Rover Sport and thought it would be my dream vehicle. I don't miss it at all. I almost purchased the Porsche Macan last year, but it was just too small. I will never get a Mercedes as I had problems with my last one that I kept less than 1 year. Nothing pisses me off more than spending a lot of money on a vehicle and then end up with a lot of issues. I considered the Q7, but not a fan of Audi's reliability issues either. I really never considered the Volvo, but gave it a look, and not impressed as some of the reviews. I even test drove the Honda Pilot Elite, which handled nicely, but way too much plastic. The only vehicle that I liked prior to this was the BMW X5 and while my husband drives one currently, he like the RX350 better. I don't have anything bad to say about the X5 other than long term reliability. The seats are definitely not as comfortable (Dakota leather) and I love the 12.3" screen on the RX versus the X5. I also love the exterior radical look of the RX versus the boring and somewhat outdated look of the X5. The RX actually has more room where it counts.

Mine was about $2500 off, which is aligned with what truecar is showing, and also is close to invoice. So below invoice is actually not that far fetched.

I just put a $1k deposit down for a F-sport 350 with MSRP at $59,975. Went the Costco route and was given $1.5k off. Must complete Costco web form and provide them the authorization number. If I am able to find any more incentives I will try, but for now that is what I'm told. Price sheet has not become available yet, so not concrete... I'm in southern california.

9K off is 20% off from MSRP for a year 2015. Which dealership in Maryland is that?

Are you talking about 2015 year model? I too live in NY and logged in TrueCar, chose F sport, picture looked from year 2016 but when i got my certificate it said "year 2015". A few minutes later I received a call from 2 dealerships here in NY and they said that they are trying to move out 2015's as they need room for 2016's. When I asked if the price is negotiable, they said that I need to come in.

2016, my truecar certificates said 2016 also, even though my negotiated deal was prior to be checking truecar. It wasn't for an Fsport though, so not sure if it is a bug in truecar, but $2500 is definitely doable with dealers in NJ. Tri-County (where I leased my GS) showed the lowest price.

New to the Lexus Family. Picked up a 2016 Nebula Grey AWD for the wife with some options not the complete suite. about $460 over Invoice. The invoice price came from the Costco price calculator .

We went in for a test drive, and I was hoping for some discount off the MSRP but the final price was something I was happy with. I am in Northern Virginia and the closest Costco pricing dealer was in MD, Went to the local dealer and showed him the cert - he did mention that they did not have Costco pricing but was willing to offer it for about 460 over invoice. I never got a chance to check out the Costco pricing from the MD dealer.

Thanks. I am interested in a 2016 RX350 . I will keep Sheehy in mind since they are not very far. Did you get a price on a 2016 from them?

How do we know what the invoice price is? Is it located somewhere on the car or do we have to ask dealership for a proof of document?

Please post the actual MSRP and what you negotiated the deal for. I like to see real dollar numbers as I have no idea what "invoice" is at this time. Thanks!
