hi
I own a 2014 BMW X3 and I will be replacing it in a few months. I've been thinking of getting a highly reliable Japanese vehicle that I can own for at least 10 years . Right now I have in mind the 4runner (wishful thinking for a 2020 redesign so most likely not a real choice) and
... the 2020 RX 350 AWD with the following colors, pkgs and options:
- matador red mica exterior
- Black nuluxe with striated black trim
- premium pkg
- cold weather pkg
- power moonroof and roof rails
- 20" 5 spoke wheels
- BSM and rear cross traffic alert
- heated and ventilated front seats
- roof rack cross bars
- body side moldings
- mud guards
- heated leather trimmed steering wheel
- power rear door with kick sensor
- carpet cargo mat
- alloy wheel locks
+ $1095 deliv, proc & handling fee
for a total of $53,140
Questions:
- Could I custom build this (no problem waiting 6-8 weeks or whatever),as I did with my X3?
- In case it were possible, do I have any room for price negotiation [as compared when buying from the lot]? shaving a couple of grands off the total price is the idea
- In your opinion, Should I wait until maybe December to get a better pricing and/or offers?
- Should I negotiate with other lexus dealers, maybe 100-200 miles away from my city for the right deal and environment? (Lexus/Toyota dealers in Miami FL are notorious for swelling initial prices, being borderline dishonest in negotiations and a long list of etc). ie I helped my sister buy her camry and it was a nightmare, then I started a negotiation for a 4runner and had to walk because these sellers were so unprofessional, pushy and number magicians that they did not give me another choice. Then when I bought a IS350 a few years ago, the experience was so bad that I have no idea how I accepted the awful deal that they gave me. Any recommendation for a good dealer or seller within a driving distance of Miami ?
Any other insight that you can provide?
thank you so much

You can then visit the web sites of various dealers and sometimes get a feel for their pricing. Do the lexus online configurator and send that to one or more of the dealers you found promising.

Thank you all for your responses. btw the only cons I see with the RX350 is the dismal 7.7s from 0-60 ... but again, daily driving is not a drag race and these days I am way more mellow than I used to be

I've always been mindful of my MPG since my very first car. In a car such as the RX, it's more fun to squeeze as many MPG from it as possible than punching it from a stop light since, well, 0-60 in 8s is not that much fun lol, although in the hybrid there's a bit of that instant torque from the electric motors. 200 miles into my first fillup in my RX450h, 34.2MPG average. It is such a smooth and relaxing ride, mellow is the way to go to enjoy this car.

The answer I got was preliminary but I am advised to "order very soon" to get it by late December for delivery after January 1. Just curious to how long it actually does take to leave the factory in Canada after the order is placed, and I know transit to the US is variable and can take awhile.
I am told a GM car may take 6 to 8 weeks. I got a custom order Dodge pickup in 5 1/2 weeks.

Um, is that the reason why my renewal is 50 dollars more expensive per month compare to this year's? The fact that I was involved in a non at fault collision probably also added to the cost which is something I don't understand, why do you have to pay the depreciation of the car and get a raise in insurance just because you are hit?

Are you saying that you were told it will take 5 or 6 months after you have placed the order for a new custom order 2020 RX350 to be delivered from the factory? This seems excessive to me. It is unclear what you mean that they will hold it for you.

Yes, that is what my Sales Consultant told me several times when I asked him when he wanted what I wanted on my 2020 RX350. I knew they would not have the color combination or the Luxury Package, etc. in their inventory. I did give him a deposit to hold it in my name.
