I have my thoughts on the differences, improvements IMO of the 21 if anyone cares. That said, the 19 was still really good

Mind me asking how much the dealership gave you for the trade? I found the car online and they lowered the price to $80k. Im seriously thinking about getting it and shipping it back to Texas.

Not sure why Im not able to PM. I dont even see the button to PM.. Maybe its b/c I just created this username and new to the forum?

Anyways, I wonder how close to 74k I could get. I dont mind them making some money, just not too much.

How in the world did you pay 83k for that car? Was it brand new when you got it?

I think PM is at the top right of your window next to your user name...

The car was originally listed for $107k It was an executive car up in MA. It had 4k miles on it but never titled. I played two dealers off each other, both had UW but this one had the performance package which I wanted. The other didn't. They didn't do their research. It had 700 miles on it, one titled. Had the glass roof, so maybe the base $92k package? I said if they matched the $83k, I would be in. They did much to my surprise. So there you have it.

I did the same in the IR, threw out a crazy # on a $108k car, last day of the month, last few hours and so you have it.

Try to PM me

Im in contact with the Lexus of Rockville dealership. They arent budging on the $80k asking price for your old car. Im going to try to work it for a couple more days. Maybe at the end of the year they would be willing to let it go for lower. What kind of discount were you able to get off the 2021 with price of 108k? That will help me with a baseline.

Happy Holidays to all. Please read my past post 7/20 a few months ago....If you can’t find it? Please do a internet search Car Buzz LC 500 Massive discounts on 2019.. New around 77k in that region this year... I hope this helps you... The margin they are looking to make is nothing short of outrageous/ higher than new car margins. Stay safe and good luck... It would be less expensive to buy new..It is the dead of winter..The carfax on this car speaks volumes
