What is good price for 2008 ES350 with full options?
Who has the best deal?

shoot for $41k with the UL package

WindSpeed

I don't believe the UL package constitutes "full options." Following is the UL Package, followed by additional options:

Ultra-Luxury Package with Additional Options$10,626.00Ultra-Luxury Package Includes:
- Semi-analine leather-trimmed interior
- Wood- and leather-trimmed steering wheel and shift ****
- Driver's seat power cushion extender
- Lexus Memory System to control power driver's and front passenger's
seats (except lumbar), outside mirrors and steering wheel
- Rear-seat side airbags (SRS)
- Remote keyless entry-linked memory
- Panorama glass roof
- Power rear sunshade
- High-Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps
- Dual-swivel Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS)
- Electrochromic outside mirrors with tilt-down in reverse
- Rain-sensing intermittent windshield wipers with mist cycle
- 17 x 7-in Graphite-polished alloy wheels
- Full-size spare tire with 17-in alloy wheel

Additional Options:
- Navigation System/Mark Levinson® Surround Sound Package- Intuitive Parking Assist- Preferred accessory package (includes Cargo net, Trunk mat and Wheel locks)- Rear lip spoiler

After this, there are several additional options, also available from your dealer, such as "gold accents" for the Lexus logo and name.

Does $41K include Navi/ Mark Levinson ?
If not what is the price with Navi/Mark Levinson?

Don't forget the Pre-Collision System (PCS) and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control ($2600)

From my understanding, this option is very rare, and only can be purchased by special order which will take at least 3 months to get from the factory.

WindSpeed

Accessory Options $0.00 (This is included in the add-on price, above):
••XM® Satellite Radio (see dealer)

I believe these are all the options available (save minor dealer options such as gold-tone logo and name), whereas there would not be an extension on the normal wait time for delivery.

Delivery, Processing & Handling Fee
$765.00

Total MSRP** $45,111.00

This price is right off the Lexus site. I'm sure any of the dealers would offer a much better price, wouldn't you think? For those of you who have already purchased an '07 or '08 configured as such, what are your thoughts?

Thanks,

$40,000 to $41,000 is reasonable. I know some of you might say "get below invoice or it should be much lower etc." but knocking 4-5k off of the MSRP for a 08 ES is not bad already. set a price that you are comfy with and go for it.

I got my 08 ES350 MSRP $41,920 for $38,000. It's not the best but I am happy with the discount.

so invoice + invoice options is about 39175

WindSpeed

Hmmm. This may be ****, but, what's the difference between Invoice and MSRP? And, what are Invoice "Options?"

If you can get 40k, that's a really good price on the UL as you have listed. In June, I had a dealer quote me 38.2k for a left over. But from what I understand, the 08 model is to have less UL models making them more rare. In the end, I bought an 07 RL for 38k, but it was a tough decision.

Larry, That The Best Decision You Could Ever Make. Wish I Was As Smart.

most people assume invoice + option prices = true invoice but in reality there is markup on the options and packages as well. That is why I called it invoice options

I just bought one for $40800 with an XM radio (Full Ultra Luxury, MLNAV, Intuitive Parking Assist and accessories like cargo net and wheel locks).

The dealer was a friend of mine and his boss wouldn't let him go less than $1500 over invoice (but he threw in the XM radio by upping my trade-in to cover it).

I would figure ~39K for bottom line, but since the UL is so rare, they really don't have to go that low.

So, what was the total out the door price including tax & license?
