2008 with nav, dvd, loaded, all factory options, and dealer in Atlanta and in Mobile, AL met my price. I decided to wait - just scared of the economy right now. Would have bought back in Nov, but dealer had to play games before meeting my price, then it was too late.

Tier 1 credit for Lexus by lexusgirl2

Would you please explain about "Tier 1 credit score" to get a lease in Lexus? I called a Lexus dealer this morning and got to know that they have no downpayment option if I have Tier 1 credit score. What should be my credit score?

Edmunds is wayyy off on their pricing!!! by dollar_savvy

So I looked at Edmunds for the price on a new GX470 in the SF bay area.
The TMV comes to about $42680, but the dealer says that their invoice price is $47615.
What Edm fails to count is the
1 Dealer advertising cost $714
2 Dealer hold back $952
3 Financial reserve/floor cost $476
 
Then there is the Accessories package, lexus link, Mark Levingston/Navigation package, rear seat/A/C, Towing prep, Preffered Accessories pkg,
that EDM does not include in their base pricing.
I say that is a VERY bad practice on their part as it provides mis-information to the consumer.

Hi-
 
I used the edmunds site as a guideline for my 08 GX470 last Sept/Oct. It provided me with a good idea what others paid, and what kind of $$ they left on the table. This is not a time to be timid with the dealers, you have to remind them that they need you more than you need them. Remember to seek the incentives of other autos in the GX's class and use that to show that better deals exist. I used the Acura and the Mercedes deals. For ~43k it better have the 3rd row seats, NAV, MarkLevsn audio, Wheel locks. This car doesn't sell itself and you need to remind the sales folks of that fact. There's a way they can beat that 47k price. This was my first Lexus and I am very happy with it.

oh no. DO NOT pay for the ad fee. They make up those fees to get any penny out of you. You see McDonald's ads all the time, do you pay for ad fee when buying a hamburger?
 
Dealers should make money but not by lying about those garbage fees.

Whatever you buy, DO NOT USE FLEETRATES! by zunk76

Fleetrates is a scam. These guys are not endorsed by or approved by ANY automotive factory. These guys broker a deal from a dealer to the customer at a healthy profit. The customer can ALWAYS purchase the vehicle directly from the dealer at a lower price.
 
There are also some credit card "irregularities" by the sales people which is now under investigation by the Florida attorney general. Fleetrates is nothing more than a boiler room under the direction of one DJ Ceresa, a rather unsavory character. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

It's almost august. Any incentives yet, samfields ) I've found these car forums are great and it's been very useful for car buyer like me. I am in SF Bay Area and scouting for any good deal out there for 2009 GX. Anyone who bought one lately, or known prices paid pls chime in.
 
Thx
