Anything over 10% isn't bad. 15% is more the "deal" area

I was told that even if I purchase in a state with no or lower sales tax, that I would still get charged 3% NC sales tax, because that's where I live and where the car would be registered.
That suggestion has a caveat you apparently missed: "...if you have a military connection..."

Military personnel are exempted from having to switch over their license plates. At 3%, however, I wouldn't complain about the sales tax. We pay 9% here. The state sales tax on my 2016 RX450h was $5,280 and registration over $500.

I’m in Lake Norman and will start shopping in late June/early July. Maybe new, maybe CPO. Please let me know if you find a good dealer.
Thanks

I'm in Charlotte and ended up going down to Atlanta (Butler of South Atlanta) for my 450, great experience

Just do a search of RX350 on LH site and you'll get plenty of information, albeit, it was all in 2016/2017 when deals were good.
Hi can I ask what the LH site? Can I search for a car after I put in my specs?

Umm, those lease #s are from a bloated MSRP. Maybe for CA it's a good deal, but this would have been considered to be a rip off in NY.

Just don't feel pressured by this clown telling you "today only". If it's good today, then it's good next week. Otherwise, see ya.

In order to evaluate the deal, you would need to know the MSRP of the car, the discount being given to you off of the MSRP, the money factor (interest rate) for the lease, and the residual value at the end of the lease. Without those numbers, any thoughts about whether it is a "good deal" or not are a pure guess.

In general, though, when a dealer contacts you and offers you a "special today only" deal, it is highly likely that the deal is not a good one and that the dealer is counting on you to make an impulse purchase without having put forth the effort to properly evaluate the deal.

^ Exactly. Good deals usually require some form of effort and aggravation - a good compromise is when both parties are dissatisfied. =]

Alright I emailed him what’s the interest rate and what’s the residual value at the end of the lease. The msrp is $61,645
