Get the GS but trade the IS for a truck that you can both drive and switch from time to time.

well im headed back to the dealer tonight to get the GS350, i cant trade the IS in because i just leased it in Aug. i can't keep the ridgeline and get the GS because the Ridgeline is also leased and i owe 25K

here is the deal, tell me if you don't think this is the best deal you ever saw MSRP is 53,400 on the GS i got the best finance rate because of good credit at money factor of .00115% 48 months with NOTHING down they are paying off my ridgeline at $25,243 and selling me the GS at $49,032 in order to get my lease payment at $783.00 a month!
the trade in value of the ridgeline is only about 22K so they are essentially eating about 6K in profit on this deal.

the GS is FULLY loaded it has park assist, read shade, lighted door sils, rain sensing wipers, mark lev, nav heated cooled seats. and a whole mess of other options. i found out there are 2 builds for colorado and this is the old. the new doesnt have some of these features.
i will be headed to the dealer any minute and when we get there there will be a big red bow on the car with "happy birthday Amy" written on it and they invited us to a dinner for new owners. so it should be pretty cool
i picked out the Obsidian with black interior
so now ill have 2 obsidian lexus vehicles in my garage.
first mod is to hack the nav!
