Default 46 days left....

and we STILL don't know the price of this car!!?? I've been going to the Lexus dealer at night when it's closed and peering in at the GS300 thinking "maybe i'll just get one of these..." but now that i know about the future gs350 - forget that! the IS is the way to go as my lease is up at the end of the year...i'm gonna have the sales guy give me a red ribbon so i can give it to myself for Christmas (yes, i'm sick, i need help). the lone piece of the puzzle is PRICE PRICE PRICE! it haunts me as i'm forced to come to this grand website day after Day after DAY looking for the coveted number that will tell me whether i should put my hopes somewhere else or if the 350 is in my future. bottem line...GIVE IT TO ME LEXUS!!! IM GOING MAD!!!

Come on, if you can think about having a GS300, then the price of the IS350 shouldn't be much of a concern to you . . .

If you're looking to get a New IS350 that's fully loaded...expect for it to go into the low to mid $40 range. That's base GS300 territory.

...to start another wild speculative post on the price of the new IS as we already have one of those - and i've posted to it a few times! I really couldnt afford to get a GS - even though I could probable get a pretty good deal, but it would be TIGHT!

The point is, we have the what , when, where, and i want the HOW much! what are they waiting for? maybe they forgot to realease the price...someone missed an email or something . you know, the email that went to the guy who was supposed to tell the WHOLE world what this car is supposed to sell for in the U.S. okay, now im kidding, nobody wig out and tell me how stupid i am....at least think of a different reason for how stupid i am

man i love those little happy faces!

This isn't speculative price. I'm telling you direct from the source. I don't have exact numbers but that's what it's going to be at. Just be patient...the car is a month away from being released and the final pricing is supposed to come by next week.

you told me at least WHEN the price is coming out....i'm putting down the rest of the sleeping pills and vodka as we speak - or type in this case...

it just sucks having to wait for something when you dont know when its gonna happen....so till next week i shall wait....but if it doesnt come, i'm going to mexico to get some prescription pain killers (and cheap tequila!!!)

did i mention how much i LOVE those little happy faces?!?!

Guys look at the Road & Track scans they just tested the IS350 with Nav & ML Sound System, heated/venilation seats, HID headlights, sport suspension, 18 " wheels, Park Assist, sunroof and the price as tested $42,000.00

Not bad really, I could do without the sunroof. That would make it $41,100.00

nah, never been questioned or looked at funny at any dealer after hours. it does get dicey when they leave the cars open and we sit inside!!! had some real fun in a nissan pathfinder a few years back - tested the rear cargo capacity with my girlfriend (now wife)....plenty of room for, er, sporty activity ...theres a story to tell the kids...well, maybe not
