Default What can I expect to pay?

Hello everyone,

I am new here, I have a question about a Lexus I'm considering. But first, let me tell you a little about my self. I live in Massachusetts and currently own a 2006 Lexus ES330 in Oasis Green pearl w/Mark Levison, nav, and those headrest DVD players for the kids. The best car I've owned, great drive, looks beautiful, but I'm ready for a change. I was wondering what I should expect to pay for a new Lexus GS350 AWD w/Nav, Mark Levison, rain-sensing windshield wipers, rear spoiler, ventilated seats, AFS, wood steering wheel and backup camera. Colors-Starfire pearl w/cashmere leather. I've been on several websites giving me prices ranging from $47 to $54 with above options.

I'd really appreciate your input!

First of all welcome to CL, what year of GS350 are you looking to get? I think you can get some in that range.

Sticker price new is around 53-54k, but you should be able to get one close to invoice around 46k plus ttl.

nothing more than invoice minus $500. do not budge. be a rock.

car sales suck now. it's the end of the month AND model year.

you are essentially buying a 1 year old car. massive hit on depreciation.

I live in MA too, and I just bought my GS 4 months ago. Given the economy is slow right now, I would say you should pay right around invoice, which is $46500 with the options you listed.

Good Luck

You should get an '08 for invoice and probably under.
Lexus has given dealers a $2500 incentive on sales of the slow selling LS 460.
Maybe there's an incentive on the slow selling GS too.Maybe a $1000?
