You are right thats why I am buying my Lexus from them, the prices have been good as far as value and I watched the LS models price fluctuate over that last few weeks in buying mine

 

I have these technologies in my Van, and had them in my Jeep. I have no interest in them at all. My wife likes them but I have grown to dislike radar cruise. I deactivate the lane keep, the precollision just throws false alarms.

 

Same here. The idea of radar cruise control on the Schuylkill is just too funny to contemplate. I think the radar could put me in reverse with all the cars that would cut in front of me if I left more than a ten-foot gap.

Lane keep, also a nice idea if you don't endure constant roadworks with lane shifts. I could see that steering me right into a concrete barrier around here.

 

I think dealers lower used prices on their own based on how long the car has been sitting there. If they think they can sell a car at a given price, until the car has remained unsold for a while, they probably won't lower the price by a huge amount. Cargurus has the listing here:

It looks like it's only 10 days old on the Cargurus site, no price changes so far, and Cargurus coonsiders the car overpriced. I'm not sure about how accurate their pricing algorithm is. Still, the dealership is likely aware of the evaluation, and if the car sits for a while, will probably lower the price so it gets a better rating.

ETA:

Looks like Cargurus has the wrong exterior color for the car. Here's a 2013 brochure with a color chart:

I like the Carmax one better since it has PCS and a black interior, much easier to keep clean.

While not a 2013, it is a one owner with less miles than most of the 2013's you are looking at and has a Lexus extended warranty for another 18 months according to the post.
It is the original color combo you wanted and AWD. In addition, will cost roughly half as much as the ones you are now considering.

 

Thanks so much for pointing out the opportunity, Jungle! I greatly appreciate the thought, my friend. My apologies for not following up. The past week has been hectic with work, Masters projects, and wife's birthday.

I remember the thread you linked to. It seems photos have still not been shared. Such an unfortunate set of events for the owner. As for the car, I am pretty sure about 2013+ now. It is one criteria I haven't flip-flopped on for a few weeks.

I am not bothering with the 2013 at Valley Lexus because I managed to stop by Carmax to drive that 2014 Fire Agate Pearl. Ultimately, it's a unique color but is not for me. Incidentally, to touch on Carmax pricing that was mentioned earlier in the thread, the salesperson did share that Carmax "continually evaluates" their pricing to stay competitive (and profitable). I was surprised how low their warranty plans are for the LS (and even lower prices for a Range Rover that makes it a no-brainer to get coverage).
