Would be interesting to know the fair market value (FMV) of your trade, and what the dealer allowed for it. How the heck did your do the trade over the phone?

How about sharing where you got such an unbelievable deal.

Thanks.

 

it sounds good but most if not all dealership low ball your trade in anyways so it kinda makes up for the loss of tax....we had a 98 prelude we wanted to get rid of the dealers like we can only do $2500...the car wasnt in the best condition but i sold it on my own for $5k...

 

Hey all, they gave me $20000 for my 04 Nissan Murano with 25000 miles, car only had basic options like one upgrade for like $1200 new. Could have sold too Carmax for a thousand more but I saved more by trading in with the deal, for the tax saving,read above if you you missed other posts. Oh if you want a great deal in south Fl, Lexus of Palm Beach, ask for Evelio Miranda he's in internet sales. Tell him I sent you. They know how too sell cars, best experince I have ever had. Other dealers let me leave over $500 he couldn't believe it.

 

Thanks, accelerate. That's about the best deal I've heard of in SoFL. Looks like the "gotta have it first" rush is beginning to subside, and selling prices are normalizing.

I'm learning lots from all of you for my expected summer custom order, of an '07 350 Sport.

 

I got a smokin deal on a new IS350 from Chatham Parkway Lexus in Savannah, GA. Talk to Michael Wells since he is the internet sales manager and tell him Scott recommended him. When all was said and done, I got a slightly better deal than the Lexus dealer in Sarasota, FL was offering.

How much did you end up paying?

 

A little less than 37.5K including dealer fees, but not including taxes. I only paid around $300 dollars in taxes because of my trade in.

I have an appointment next Friday:

Initial Dealer offer:
IS 250 (Black on Black)
18"
Nav
Premium pkg
Accessory pkg
Sales Tax (6%), registration, destination

OTD = 38258.18

Thoughts anyone?

 

6% on tax???? that's good over there.

out tax here is about 8 % and don't forget all the little fees like registeration etc...

we go tthe 250 for 34400 otd with everything you got but nav so if you add another 2500 it doesn't get up to 38. just bargin more.

 

Title tax (what you pay when you buy the car) in VA is 3%. But of course then you pay property tax on it every year

 

thanks for the input, shaolin. the one who quoted me was the sales manager and he didn't seem like he wanted to bargain. bah. what do you think i could talk him down to?

 

I'm negotiating right now.....same packages except for no 18", and right now we are at 37900(without taxes, fees, and reg).......car is supposed to be here first week of Feb. Not sure about the GFM color........then again mine is a AWD

 

just tell him that you have the money or what ever, but since you are not giving me the deal that i want then...... just walk away.

tell him i want it for 36 to 36500 otd. they have the car and they want to sell. they will do it.

good luck and keep it update

 

will do. thanks again!

 

Anymore great deals on these cars popping up guys??
