Question Is this a decent deal???

I am debating buying a 2018 LS500 AWD F-Sport, it has the ML Sound System and the Pano Sunroof Options, MSRP is just over $89K. They are quoting a price of roughly $72K or $17K off, it sounds like a decent deal based on what I am reading here and there are not many F-Sports left in my area. It is Manganese with the Circuit Red Interior.

I am also thinking of the LS500 AWD none F-Sport, it looks like for the same price you can get the massage seats and such as well as the upgraded leather.

My neighbor is the Finance Manager for their Sister Toyota dealership, I may reach out to him and see if he has a certain person I should deal with, he has been there for a long time, I am assuming he has connections at both dealerships.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

this is the same exact spec i have, this musr be at herb chambers, my deal was close to this but $17k isnt bad. just remeber that there are conquest and rebate totalling $8k so they are taking about $9k off the sticker. just tell them $18k.

I saw your pictures, beautiful car!!!! I’ve never owned a Lexus, I’ve always ended up with German Luxury Cars. I think I might change it up, I’m going to check it out tomorrow I’ll keep you all updated.

One worry I have is the actual color of the Red Interior, some pictures it looks too bright, I’m hoping that is the lighting.

Also I think the black inserts make it much better. So it’s not just red everywhere.

i only got 15k off mine and I picked mine up 2 days ago. My MSRP was 85k.
