Nebula grey. I just picked her up yesterday afternoon and love it I will have major case of the sadz if the nav freeze issue that others have seen pops up.
I got $500 dollars off msrp. As I suspected, i didn't have much bargaining power.

Congrats on the new ride...its very nice...however I have had to pull over 3 x in the 1st 900 miles to reset the Nav by turning off the engine and restarting. Trip this weekend kept showing 27 miles to the next turn...it was really only a few miles...glad my son noticed it has been stuck on 27 for 20 minutes. Would be nice if at least there was a reset button or some button sequence that could activate a nav restart while driving.

I bought the NX200T from Ray Catena of Monmouth, NJ on Sat, For MSRP $43,245, the selling price is $39,639. It's AWD with Navi and Premium package model. Other dealers were asking for $2000 more.

Hey Lexinator,

How are you enjoying your 300h? Have you tried out the Radar Cruise?
Any nav freeze issues?
I'm still working on a 300h AWD I have my eye on. Actually, it too is not at the port yet but is expected to arrive in the next few days.
I have a question - once yours arrived at the port, how much longer did it take before it made it to Lexus South Bay?
I ask because I'm debating - to wait for this one and not be able to deal much or focus on a F Sport 200t AWD (white/rioja) which is already in stock at several places (may have more price flexibility).

Once my nx arrived at long beach port , it took about one week to get to the dealer, and then dealer needs about a day to check out/ detail. My nx arrived at dealer late Friday night and I picked it up Saturday afternoon. I have not had nav freeze issue , but have only driven about 15 miles. My sales person did not know anything about the nav freeze issue when I mentioned it to her.
I also bought extended platinum warranty. It seems that most people on this forum don't purchase it, but it made me feel better . Hopefully I will never need it.

Hi all,

First time leasing a vehicle and just signed for an NX 200t f-sport. Not sure if considered a good deal, would love your opinion. I haven't taken delivery of the vehicle yet (arrives in April), so I'm under the impression I'm not binded yet.

MSRP $43,670; negotiated to $41,170. 36 months for 12k/year. $5000 down, $505/month.

If the $505 is including taxes, not bad.

If it is before taxes.... I bet you could do better for that amt down.

I got $479/mo before tax with enough down to cover the fees etc. MSRP $43,278 (non-F Sport) w/ nav and premium pkg. Negotiated to around $40k. I forget exactly. 12k mi/yr. 36mo.

Keep in mind that putting money down only lowers the pmt $30 per $1000 down. So in your case, you "lowered" your payment $150/month compared to no money down. Money down on a lease does not add any equity. If the car gets stolen or totaled, you are out that $5k. Doing the math... $130x36 months = $5400. This meals you are up $400 for the extent of the loan. It's like getting a $400 discount off the car for putting cash down. Note that this is not accounting for taxes/fees. So your $400 would be lower

You can always get your deposit back if you think you can get a better deal. I had 4 dealers "fighting" for my money. Went to the place with the best offer.

You will love your NX. The car is amazing

Hi all,

I'm just curious what is up with all the ~$500 per month quotes with $3000+ down? These figures are closer to a BMW X3 or even a VW Touareg type vehicle.

I was looking online today and I came across this: http://www.lexusofroute10.com/NX200t

I thought the NX competes with the Acura RDX, where I saw similar numbers online too.

slckrck

The $500/month are for well-equipped NX's. The X3 you mention is for the base model. I did the comparison when I was car shopping. Equally equipped, the NX is significantly cheaper.

i'm sorry but that sounds really high to me. I leased an RX in January, list was $51,500, 36 months, 12k/year, nothing down, rolled all taxes into the lease, the payment is $549 per month. I am sure the lease interest rate is probably lower on an RX than an NX , but putting $5,000 down should have more than made up that difference. I would check with another leasing company. I am curious, what can you buy the NX for at the end of the lease period?

aztoot

According to: http://www.bmwusa.com/standard/conte...regiontypeid=2

You can get a well-equipped one for under $500 per month and $3k down.

slckrck

Right. When I say "well-equipped", I am saying AWD, nav pkg, premium, f-sport etc. MSRP around $43k+

The one on the BMW website is for xdrive w/ lighting pkg. Pretty much base.

Hmmm, I think that payment and money down is pretty high too.

Just picked up my wife's NX yesterday and it's pretty loaded. Our base payment (before taxes) is about $516 and I'm only paying inceptions and 1st pymt. Total payment is about $560 with our PA lease tax of 9%.

Got about $2500 off MSRP and the first month's payment that Lexus is throwing in as an incentive (just used as cap cost reduction instead of skipping a payment). My MSRP was $47,6?? So just the depreciation portion tells me you aren't getting a great deal.

However, some states have taxes paid up front so much of the money they want may be for that stuff - it's tough to say when those variables hit.

Either way, that seems really high. Are you rolling in another lease on an upside down car? You don't have to answer this but is there something going on with your credit?

If not, I don't see any way that, with the typical Lexus lease program and rates you should be paying anywhere near that with $5k down and that selling price.

Leasing is complicated but you should research how they work in detail - plenty of online resources - and make sure the dealer isn't slipping something else in there.

Looking to see what you guys thought about the quote I received. In southern california car MSRPed at $44,516. They matched carmax appraisal for my trade in and offered me the car at $41,960. They're shipping it in right now and it'll get there on the 31st so I'm going to go in and see if I can negotiate it down a little further.
