the lexus dealer near my house has the 08 450h fully equited, with one owner, but it has only 646 miles. the tag price is $54,999. is it a good deal? this is just the tag price, not the price i offer yet, I want it go down as much as possible.. is the price kinda high for a one owner car? anyone know the invoice price of the 450h? I didn't test drive it yet.

 

Sticker for the 450h is about $65k. That seems to be a considerable amount of savings.

 

not all GS450h's have the AAAS, not all have the nav, not all have the PCS.
A fully opted out one with all the options I just mentioned is around 65-66K.
Without those it's considerably less. Different parts of the country get different standard options. For instance here in CO, the car only comes with 100% all options already, no way to pick. Other states, you can choose, no nav, no pcs, no aaas. So check what it has first.
Check which options it has specifically, then we can help you accordingly.
If you are saying it has every possible option and they are selling it for that 55K number, that's a great deal.

 

Wuth only 600+ miles on the 08, looks like it's a smashing deal if the car really have everything possible on it & did not have an accident . . .

 

GS450h new MSRP can range from about $54K to about $68K. You need to find out what equipment is on the car, then use carsdirect.com to figure out the MSRP and invoice price. A car that had an owner, is in perfect condition, and was never in an accident should sell for a couple thousand below the dealer invoice for the similarly equipped new car.

 

thanks guys. I will see the car this weekend. I call the dealer and they said it is fully loaded. but i need to test drive it first.

 

fully loaded can still mean no PCS or AAAS. Just check specifics.
Take a picture of the sticker invoice.

 

wat is AAAS ?

 

should be APSSS

Active Power Stabilizer Suspension System - $3320 option which I seriously doubt it's worth it.

 

no wonder I search through lexus site and can not find any system with the AAAS. lol.
is this system with run flat tire? Thanks

 

It's one of the only features that actually swayed my decision to the GS450h purchase over a similar model that didn't have this as an option.
WORTH EVERY PENNY>
It stiffens the swaybar, acts as a "no body roll" feeling when corning, keeps the body level, no lean, more like a BMW if you are familiar with those.

WOrth every penny!

 

Ask Jace7 he loves his aaas.

EDIT: I see he already responded.

 

for me, I would rather save those money and get a nice sets of aftermarket coils/sway bars/struts for less money, which I can almost guarantee will perform better than stock options. But then again, having OEM stuff has its benefits. But it most certainly won't stop many of us from modding

 

for what it does in the car it's in, I love it.
yes, I wish I had the feeling of my old 550i, in my GS450h, but that's not going to happen.

but the reliability and fit and finish is far superior in the lexus, so it's a trade off.

 

I was thinking of that too
