Let's get back on topic, please.

If you check the Official Discount Off MSRP thread, you'll find that some people have saved over $4k off. Some of those are people that got $10k off...

 

u sure its not an 06'? i only ask cuz no one seems to believe u...i say if u got it for dirt cheap than good for u congrats and welcome

 

Yeah sorry guys, I thought I purchased an 07 but I noticed it didnt have the shark fin like my friends and my friend told me its a 06. Haha so I guess I didnt get it for that cheap then huh?

 

So now the question becomes why does a dealer have a brand new year old IS on his lot with Sports Package, Nav/ML and chrome wheels with only 4 miles on it. I can't believe it was somehow just lost on the sales lot for the past year. This story doesn't add up. You purchased this car without knowing what year it was? C'mon.....

Sounds like you bought a used car. And the 4 miles was what was on the trip odometer.

 

Now that the '08s are arriving, your "new" car is 2 years old.

 

dont care if the car is two years old thats still a hell of a good deal

 

I agree.. Crystal white comes only in '06 models. I paid 37,5k and thought I had a steal.

EDIT:Jumped the gun didn't read all of the post

 

not many people want to pay for a 350 heavily loaded with the most expensive options, anyone spending that type of money probably bought a GS instead. I could see this car sitting around for a while.

another reason why my car was sitting on the lot for over a month before I swooped in to take it at a good discount (end of the month purchase) and totally avoiding a special order, the typical lexus owner wont pay $3700 for the expensive sport package. Hey worked out for me, guess im not typical

 

There is a big difference in a car sitting on the lot for over a month and one sitting for over a year. I haven't seen a new 06 since last September when the 07's came out, and I would challenge anyone to try to find a brand new 06 on any Lexus dealer lot at this point. The dealer would have been motivated long ago to liquidate this old stock. There are plenty of Lexus buyers who will pay for the Sports Package or Luxury Package, it is not that hard of a sell.

Sorry, I don't buy the story of him buying a brand new 06 in September 07. Something is fishy, and the story is incomplete.

 

who knows how long my car wouldve sat on the lot before someone would buy it. When I first discovered the car was actually there, no one else was interested in it, only me. Who knows maybe his car were among the last 06 produced before the 07 kicked in.

If yall really want proof he I guess he can take a picture of his sticker and receipt of the purchase, showing the date/mileage

 

dude. you got ripped off.

 

Excellent condition for that still shows at 35,035 on kbb, I don't think he got ripped off according to the book value. I have no idea what they're going for in the real world though. Only 14 of the 215 listings on autotrader are below 32k, and none are below 29k.

Anyways, that being said, to get one at 4 miles fully loaded wouldn't make sense. Getting it new for what would be some of the cheapest used in America. Salvage title maybe

 

I paid more than that OTD for my IS250 RWD.....

 

I really dont care if you guys believe me or not. I just know I got a IS350 and loving it!
