Damn dood, 632 is pretty low. I'd shop around and try to get a cosigner on there to help you because that 7.9% is gonna hurt pretty bad in the long run.

Sounds like you got a really good deal. Wish I could've gotten that. The 2011 IS350 is difficult to find where I am.

if i were you i would wait till nov/dec to purchase... stealerships are hurting for a sale during those times. im sure you are familiar with their commercials "december to remember sales event"

another reason why others got deals is because your car along with the options you want does not exist (not on their lot).

you can get a great deal on car A that is sitting in their lot but its not the color combo you prefer and its missing some options you want.

or

you can pre order car B and have it built to your liking but have to pay full price.

your money your choice.... i choosed car B and have no regrets

Or option C- order it exactly how you want from a dealer who won't bend you over for doing so and will still sell it for only a little over invoice.... that's what I went with. (it does require finding the right dealer though)

hey man, personally I think the veh is way over priced... Also the new IS gen is about to come out if you can wait that would be even better... and how in hell did you get a military discount? I got a weird laugh from my dealer when I asked about it.

That is a horrible deal and a terrible dealer. *Do not* give them any money or your business. Dealers who rip off customers with tacked on high-margin CRAP like door edge gaurds and protection packages should be put out of business! These old-school rip-off tactics should be illegal by now.

When you do buy the car. Get a co-signer.. 7.94% is way too high. I got my dad to co-signed when i got my 2010' 350 and it was at 1.9% for 60 months (28k financing/15k down)
