Price Paid for a LS 500/ F-Sport/ H (Lease or Purchase)
#16
According to several dealers I spoke with, December to Remember includes $5K from the factory plus another $3K Conquest Cash (if you own another luxury brand in your household). Best deal I could negotiate was a discount of $14K off a sticker of $87K, a 16% discount. I passed. I was thinking of waiting until next December anyway as I prefer not to buy a car in it's first model year; also, back in 2013 I was able to negotiate a 20% discount off my LS460 so I'm hoping next year I can do better.

It's probably better to state what percentage of discount rather than how much you got off of MSRP without stating the MSRP number. New LS500/F in my area are range from 80k to 105k. 20K off of 80K is more significant than 105k.
With that said, 2019 are out. Left over 2018 should be heavily discounted. I don't know about you guys, but 2019 having CarPlay over the 2018 is a deal breaker for me.

I have apple car play in 3 of my other vehicles. I never use it.
I too thought that I wanted CarPlay in my lexus, but since I never use it in other vehicles, why would I use it in THIS car? And I can get a great deal on the car too.
No brainer for me.

I can careless about Lexus GPS. On some occasion, it sent me on a much longer route that is absolutely unnecessary and dumb. For this reason, I always use google map on my phone. So having Carplay will be beneficial to me.
Tech is cheap and gets outdated quick, I get that. But having some latest tech should be expected on this type of vehicle.

Congratulations. That's a beautiful car. Can you please tell us how you negotiated your deal? I'm planning on leasing one this month.

They will probably come back with $10-$15k off MSRP including Lexus Cash/Rebates , Discounts etc at first but stay persistent and tell them you want 20% off MSRP on leftover units.
Idea is to take advantage of all the rebates that are being offered including Conquest rebate which gives you additional $3k.
For Conquest rebate you will need to show that someone in the household owns competitive luxury brand vehicle.
If you are interested in Leasing and are open to buying it out of state let me know, Dealer i purchased my car from might have couple more remaining units in stock.
Good luck and let us know how the negotiation goes.

Went out tonight to see if I could get $20k off and was able to get down to $17k off. It wasn't my ideal color so I passed and figured next yr might have better options.
