Smile 8 miles

Hi Folks!

Yesterday, I brought home a new RX350 with 8 miles on the odometer!

Silver on the outside and Black Leather on the inside with the NAV/Premium Plus package. Purchased it in the west county of St. Louis where the recession really hasn't hit so the best deal I could get was $1,000 over invoice. I'm satisfied with the deal.

I'll ask a few questions and hopefully provide some valuable input along the way. I'm not big into mods but I may venture into some nav tweaks or iPod integration stuff.

Glad to be here!
Chris

You wound up getting the same color combo as me.
I'll be outside in a bit washing and throwing ome Zaino on it.

Enjoy!

Nice - did you get a good discount for the 8 miles of previous use!

I am with Joeb427 - be out with the Zaino later today - really works awesome!

$1000 over invoice sounds like a great deal. I think I will contact dealers in my area to see if I can get that. If so think I will upgrade to a '09 RX. First have to try to sell our '04 RX. ANy suggestions would be great??

Shoot for $500.00 over invoice I got $670.00 over invoice a month ago in the IL./WI. area. As far as selling yours good luck I am sure it will sell no problem. Take it to Carmax to get an idea.

THANKS, $500 over will be my goal. Anything under $1000 will consider as close and go in for talks.
There are 3 - 4 dealers within 80 miles of us so I'll try them all.

Here in the Northeast, you can walk into any dealer and get invoice price without trying too hard.
