Just bought one!!
Hey everyone,
Just bought a slightly used 2008 Lexus RX 350 FWD with premium plus, heated seats, 18 inch wheels, navigation/bluetooth with 7000 miles on it. I bought it for $28K + TTL. Will get pics up soon
. Do you all think I got a good deal?

The cheapest used 2008 RX I have found in the Atlanta area was $30,000 but had 20k miles, also no NAV. It was on a small car lot and looked very used if you know what I mean. There is a 2008 optioned the way you describe in Atlanta at a local Lexus Dealer for 32k (Certified) but has 40k miles.
Based upon those two used 2008s I ran across I think your deal was a sweet one. Was it a certified Lexus used car or not? Lows miles N-I-C-E. That would have been exactly the deal I would have jumped on if I had found a deal like that. I ended up with a new left over 2008 with all the options you mentioned but no NAV (18" 7 spoke Liquid Graphite, heated seats, rain-sensing wipers/washers, Premium Plus Package, Towing Prep Package, Cargo Mat).
Check the web based car web sites - I think you will see 2008 RX350 still being priced at $36,000+
Enjoy your previously owned Lexus RX350 !!

More questions...
I attached the pic of the car I bought...Bamboo pearl is a nice color (my wife likes it..so even better). Does premium plus package bring any interior lights, like footwell, cupholders? I haven't seen a picture of these features before.
Also...I want to install Ipod adapter and XM radion on this car with Navigation, is that possible? My other car came with this stuff standard, why couldn't Lexus? Anways..car to be delivered in a week...can't wait. Awesome site

I just searched the major find a used car site for 2008 RX350s under 30k. The two that came up were both damaged cars (not loaded). A few more are selected when you go to 34k. I think most are selected at 36k and up.
I suspect a loaded 2008 RX350 for 28K is a car that you drive like you stole it - because that price appears to be well under what all others are asking for their 2008s.
Sweet Deal Indeed

Thanks for all the compliments.
Had a question: I wanted to install Lockpick + XM + Ipod in my vehicle which has Nav but not Mark Levinson, 2008 RX 350. I know there are threads for all of the above individually but I have looked and looked and cannot find the answer to the above question
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I feel very lucky. Just purchased a 2009 RX 350 Pebble Beach Edition with Navigation, Bluetooth, Heated Front Seats, Rain-sensing Wipers, Headlamp Washers, etc. for $44,307 out the door (Sales Taxes, License Fees, Registration Fees and California Tire Fees Included). I still feel like I was not making the best deal.
