Anyone buy a 3rd gen GS recently? Want to know list price vs. paid price. Trying to figure out how much lower than list price to start the bargaining process.

 

I just picked up a 2006 GS300 AWD with 82,500 miles for $14k. Not too sure if it's a good deal, but I believe it was a fair price. I have been looking for a GS300 or GS350 with lower than 90k miles and under 16k for over 4 months before I found this one. It was from a private owner and he took care of it really well. All of the GS300 at dealerships were priced over 16k around my area and they had over 100k miles

 

I bought a 2007 GS 350 in January with 169,000 miles for $10,300. Since then I've put another 10,000 miles and have had no problems.

 

I paid 15k for my 08 GS460 with 139k, also put 10k on with no issues yet

 

Paid $15,300 cash for my 2007 Lexus GS350 awd with 83,000 miles in May 2015 at a large dealership.
Thorough service records. All recalls done. New Michelin Pilot tires. front brakes and brand new oem mufflers!.
Price was originally $17K but dropped sharply. The interior was mint but the exterior hood and roof need a respray which cost me $600 and a better set of 17 inch wheels which cost me $200 net after I sold my old ones. They were flaking badly. I did the rear brakes myself for parts only $175

I've added extras like 18" oem wheels which really freshened up the look and other little mods to get it the way I want, Overall I thought I got a good deal and enjoy this generation GS over the previous one.

I could have held out for an 08 but they were running around $18-$19k with similar mileage, but the 07 was the exact color combo I wanted and had a lot of major work done

 

Did they drop the price to $15,300 or did you bargain them down from $17,000 to $15,300?

 

@Lukas99GS, @Rocknrose, what were the list prices?

 

It was $17K for a while and then it dropped aggressively to $15,850. I negotiated with them at the end of the month and was able to get them down to $15,300 even though $15,850 was already a good deal with a clean carfax

 

Just bought an 08 AWD GS350. Original ist price, 51K, I paid 15K.

 

. How much were they asking?

 

2011 GS350 AWD, 48K miles, Lexus Certified (2 yr warranty + 4 free services), brand new brakes, brand new tires, $23K.

 

Did you buy this one from Allentown? I asked about it and they said it sold on 4/25.

I did. It did.

 

$17K was the asking price!

Congrats! I wanted that car, but I would have had to buy it sight unseen or drive 3 hours each way to test drive. So you only negotiated $222, huh? Did you test drive it?
