CURB WEIGHT by zoran

Lexus GX470, is listed on Tax web site!
 
Some people had some issues re Weight?
 
Any one here, who was successful using it for 60000lb weight basis tax deduction and got their money back?
 
I am in market for 2005. Per Lexus out on 12th December, there will be a sports version with more horse power too? No official brochure yet?
 
Any increase in weight? need to be seen.
 
By the way what is KDSS and why not standard?
 
thnx

Johnson Lexus (IMO) is the worst dealer from a sales point of view that I have ever tried to work with. I currently own a Lexus which I do get serviced at Johnson and for the most part I have had few problems with their service. I tried to buy my current Lexus from them but gave up after the sales people (yes I tried more than one) would not even return my calls.
 
I bought my car at Hendricks Lexus and was treated like a King. After the purchase, Johnson told me next time to let them workout the deal. Well, the same stuff again. No flexibility on pricing.. Either you take the deal or go else where. So I am still looking... Maybe I should just buy the GX from southern CA and have it shipped. I would still save money.
 
When I ask Johnson Lexus how much above invoice, their response was we don't sell our cars in that manner. We give some dollars off MSRP, but we don't give x dollars above invoice pricing.

If the MSRP is reduced $2030 on vehicles with 3rd row seats, is it also reduced the same for vehicles on the market without 3 row seats? Would the 5 seater thus have a MSRP of $43970?
Thanks

That's a very good question. I am afraid the answer is that third row seats are now standard and hence you can't get a five seater.

Actually, I'm taking an extended test drive on a GX470 with only 5 seats. I've noticed that the 8 seater has now been reduced $2030 to the same MSRP, but was wondering if the 5 seater should also be reduced.

It should be. But I doubt it will be. 3rd row is now a no cost option. I am not even sure if they'll make anymore 5 seaters. Just my guess.

Can someone direct me to the site where the GX470 is listed as an eligible 6000lb vehicle for a tax credit?

I don't have a web site reference, but it is my understanding from my accountant that the official manufacturers GVW listed on the metal plate inside of the driver's door is the valid measurement. And I believe for the GX470 that figure is over 6,000 lbs (barely).
 
My idea of putting a heavy duty roof rack or other such ad-on to the Acura MDX (5,850+/- lbs GVW) would NOT qualify and might get me a suite next to Martha Stewart if I tried.
 
You may want to consult your own accountant or tax advisor on the write-off terms and conditions. There are potentially future recapture requirements and other factors that should be understood before you elect take the Section 179 write off.

Would you let me know how the Sony 9" worked out for you.
1. Is 9" screen too big for GX
2. How is Sony picture?
 
Thanks!

does anyone know when the new GX will arrive at Lexus dealers, as I want to buy one before the end of tax year...the dealers in so cal are telling me not until jan/feb 05, this doesn't seem to sound plausible as the new Toyota Sequoia with the increased hp is already in showrroms...any help is appreciated
