How much did everyone put down on their IS?

I am looking to get my first car =) 2011 IS250 AWD w/ F-sport pkg but need some guidance on when I can start being serious about a purchase. Im just out of college and starting a new job in Feb.

Thanks!

 

39k....................

 

$400.......

 

Lease or buy?

 

The AWD doesn't come with the F-Sport package.

Buy.......

 

How much are your monthly payments?

 

Paid CASH MONEY!!! No car note for me

 

Not cheap! $500 a month but I'm a grinder and have $ saved so it works.

 

I got a used 250 for 22K with 45,000 miles. I gave 2,000 down payment and my monthly payments are 550 a month. However, I pay more than I am suppose to and now I only owe 12K. My next payment is not due until 2013. BTW, I just bought it in August this past year.

 

Cash talks got my sticker price down to 18g's then 2 year warranty and tax paid 24,000 for my 06 is350 no nav with ML

 

Paid in full with a trade in.

 

i prob sound like a broken record, but u can get an 08 ISF with < 30k miles for 36k-38k so just consider that before plunking down almost 40k for an IS250. You'll lose less on depreciation too

 

hmm, why are you paying 550 a month on only 20k? How long was your loan for? And if you gave them extra $, You should have had them take it off your principle so you'd save $ in interest. It sounds like all you did was pay your payments in advance which negates to benefit of financing.

 

big ZERO ... but I have a 720+ credit score
