Default 09' ISF price ? Help !

Hi All,

After weeks of search for a new 08' ISF without luck. I've decided to buy a new o9' ISF. A local dealer quoted me $ 62200 OTD for a loaded one. Is that a good price ?

BTW, I am in SoCal.

Thanks!

nope, not at all, go to edmunds.com and see how much invoice is on this car and tell him you will pay invoice for it. shop around, worst comes to worst, have it shipped in from another state, its only 800-1200 to ship a car, im pretty sure if you find a dealer to sell it to you for $55-56k you wouldnt mind paying the shipping cost

When your negotiating a price on a new car...

You can see the MSRP... Have them show you the dealer invoice.. and then figure out exactly the price of the car before Tax, Title & Lic fees...

Example.. $56,500 plus TTL fees... comes close to $62,200 OTD


Last I checked, there were more than a few 08's left in SoCal..

Are you searching color specific??

IS-Fly 168 and Joe Z,
Thanks for your advices.
Apparently all NEW 08's are gone in SoCal. There are few USED 08' in my local dealerships but they are asking $ 48000 - $ 54000 before TTL. I tried offer them 50K OTD for a used one but no luck.
I will broaden my search to out-of-state dealerships as IS-Fly 168 suggested.

Am I searching color specific ? No. I am flexible with color. Just prefer to buy a new one.

I know that both of the MN dealers have 4 new 2008 ISF's. They are all black though.

Lexus Cerritos tops the chart on my NO TO DEAL WITH dealership in SoCal.
The whole place is like a zoo with monkeys in business jumping upside down.
Their Internet Director goes above and beyond to **** you off.

No Thanks.

MotorCity in Bakersfield still has a couple of 08s. When I was looking, they were willing to do high 40's for an 08. I just found the exact color I wanted somewhere else. Use the Lexus dealer finder and work the phone, I think you will find a couple.
