Default Dealer gifts?
I'd like to know what gifts you've received as expressions of gratitude from dealerships for purchasing a new Lexus.
I used to get coffee mugs, but this time, nothing. (well, a keychain)
I just got my LC 500 (white/caramel).

In the past: wine, chocolate etc.
This time: imported fruits, delicate snacks -- I wasn't interested and gave all to my friends.

Have you negotiated the price? If you got several thousand dollars off, who cares about these useless gift? I told them I only care about the price, give me the price I want, that's all. But later, they mailed the gift package to my house.

I got a few free key chains, some hats, a license plate frame, and a few nice travel water bottles. Previous gifts from my other cars ranged from plants to Bluetooth speakers.

If you tell them, I am sure they will give you something else ......

They're nice quality but everybody that buys a new car gets them.

The only thing I got with my HS250 was a stuffed toy badger. Our local dealer was running TV ads at the time that they don't badger you, and this stuffed toy was their mascot.

I've since taken it to the dealer for every service over 7 years, and never got anything else. Heck even the Honda dealer next to them gives out free wiper blades with service.
