Help with Buying RX330 by kathylexus
Aug 08, 2004 (5:16 am)
I am planning to buy an RX330 AWD Premium Pkg+, with the Heated seats and rain sensing wipers in a few weeks. I live in Georgia but I am willing to travel to get a good deal.
 
What is the best way to do the negotiating? Do you recommend that I send in a fax of what I want to pay? Call in and ask for a sales person? I am a bit confused on the best approach. I am looking for the most painless approach. If I plan to buy closer to the end of the month when should I start the negotiating?
 
If you got a deal close to invoice could you please give me the details of the vehicle, how you arrived at the deal and the sales person/dealership.
 
I was reading the posts about paying tax. I thought you could buy a vehicle out of state and then pay the taxes when you get home?
 
I am getting very excited at the prospect of owing my first lexus. This group is an awesome resource.
 
Thanks
Kathy

Hi,
 
How were you able to negotiate the dollar value for your trade? Did you take the car in for an evaluation? When did you discuss the trade with them? Was it part of the deal for the price of the RX or did you negotiate that after you were quoted a price?
 
Thanks.
Kathy

Prasad,
 
First Congrats on the new RX. I visited Lexus of Rockville and wasn't too impressed there (must've been the salesman).
 
How did you know that MD is indeed a reciprocal state to Florida? I'm trying to prove this to the salesman down there.
 
Also, who in Annapolis did you get the 37,900 quote from? Send reply to lakeishasoutercomcast.net
 
Thanks, LSouter

Hello LSouter,
 
I was informed by the internet manager from Countyline Lexus in Florida that they are a reciprocative state. Mr. WhitRX330 bought one there too, and paid taxes there for VA. So Florida is reciprocative to MD and VA. Check your email for the contact name at Lexus of Annapolis.

LSouter,
 
Prasad is correct. As stated by my previous post, I paid my Virginia taxes through the Florida dealer (County Line Lexus). As a matter of record, they preferred I settled the tax issue that way. I believe your dealer has the sale tax mixed-up with the use-tax. Please check with your MD DMW for the real low-down on what you will have too pay.
 
Thank you
 
Whit

I first negotiated the selling price of the vehicle and then when I had the price set I told them I needed to trade my car and they evaluated it at the dealership. I told them the car had to be sold to make the deal on the new vehicle. Never tell them you are doing the trade in until you have your price set.

Re: Best Price in Tri - State Area [mjmboardwalk] by nicolosi1

Replying to: mjmboardwalk (Aug 06, 2004 11:09 am)

I signed this deal on July 30th. The did not put a breakdown of the price on the sales sheet, they just listed sale price of 40,100 because I used the leverage of this website and prices other people paid in the Tri-state area, told the dealer what I was willing to pay OTD and he wrote in just like that - no breakdown. That interest rate only applies to tier 1 raring and I think it may have been also because I am a previous Lexus owner and financed with them before. The rate was with LSF - not really sure what finance company that is? Hope this helps

Prasad,
 
Thank you for all of your help. It's funny how when I challenged the guy in Florida that I haven't heard back from him on the taxes issue - I think he was trying to take me for a ride. Ahh well . . .
 
I did contact Lexus of Annapolis and I got a quote of 37,900 + ttl (40,147.90 OTD) for a AWD Premium Plus in Bamboo. My husband and I are going to take the deal. Bamboo has been rally hard to find.
 
Thanks again, WhitRX, Silva and Prasad.

Any experiances on working with Lexus Finance? I am going to finalize hopefully on Wednesday but want to have all applicable info on rates. I have top tier credit.
