I live in Orlando and bought my '06 LX from Lexus of Tampa. I bought the first one they got while it was still on the boat last June. Got a great deal, about $6 k off and did it all by phone. Just speak to the sales manager. Never had it so easy. Even negotiated my trade that way. These are great folks. You can always service locally. 15k miles later, I'm still quite happy. By the way, this is my 5th lexus. Good luck

That sounds like a good deal... I'm debating in getting a new LX right now. I have a 2000 which I love but it is 6 years old now and with the rumors of Lexus not making this style anymore I am so undecided if I should wait and see what they do or just get a 06 now. I have the option of a sand pearl one or white at our local dealer. You can't beat the way these suvs drive compared to the Rx or Gx

Sounds like you made a very good deal. If you look at the id sticker inside the driver's door, you can see the month/year your car was built--it was probably received at the dealership within a month--so you can get an idea of how long the dealer may have used it.

Good morning guys.
 I forgot to mention what happen when it was time to sign lots of papers.
We spoke with the finance officer better known as The Closer.
He started mentioning all this extra warranties for our Piece of Mind.
We only bought the 7years / 100,000 miles warranty for $1500.00 plus Tax (6% ).
The others are:
  The Maintenance Warranty 5 years for $558.00 plus tax.
  The Wheel and Tire Replacement Hazard Warranty 5 years for $445.00 plus tax.
  The Scratches and Dings Warranty 5 years for $249.00 plus tax.
  The Theft Replacement Warranty 5 years $695.00 plus tax.
Has anybody heard of this ??
Is it just this particular dealer trying to Add to his Profit ???
Or just Good Old Fashion RIP-OFF !!!
 
Sid The date is 05-05 a whole year driven 2297 miles.
 
Please , let me know your opinions
 Thanks

I have never purchased the extended warranty on anything. And I have purchased 6 new Lexus from the same Plano dealer, but always traded them in some where in the 20,000 mile range, so I didn't need the extra warranty. But my dealer never tried to sell me any extra warranty!

Congrats on your purchase. Sounds like you did well. As to whether the additional warranty is worth it, it would heavily depend on how the vehicle is used and how long you intend to use it. I did one once on a toyota and never used it. Was it worth it? Who knows. I'm happy I never needed it. Toyota also gave me a rebate since I sold the vehicle prior to the expiration of the extended warranty. Parts and repairs on these things are very expensive. You already bought the warranty so now just enjoy! One use could more than pay for the warranty.

LX way superior by luckylou

Benny and Sid , thank you for your good comments.
We owned a 2003 Toyota Land Cruiser and we thought it drove great . WRONG
 
The LX470 is way superior.
This kind of SUV 2300 miles is actually nothing, but I really wanted the Extended Warranty,
just in case.
Thank again.
