does this sound fishy? by ssimmons

Hello, I am in the market for an 05 GX470. I got several prices, but the least expensive was $47,000 + tax and title. Another dealer, closer to my home quoted $47,800, but said I would only be able to get a loaner car during service if I purchased from him. He also said the dealer who gave me the $47,000. quote was unscrupulous and maybe I wouldn't get what he promised. What do you think? Thanks

You and we have no way of knowing if the dealer further away from home is unscrupulous or not without additional information. It's a judgment call if the second should be saying bad things about the other; maybe they would say anything to keep from losing a sale, or maybe they are accurately depicting the other dealer. Over the years, the loaner could be worth $800. Sorry not much help
 
Please let us know what options are on the GX you are considering. The spread between the cheapest and loaded package prices can be up to $7500.
 
Good luck

Hi, and thanks for your response. The only options I have chosen are the navigation pkg., 3rd row seat, towing upgrade, rear spoiler and wheel locks. Now a dealer in my area just called, one week later and said he could meet this price. It feels too late because I don't want to reneg with the other guy, and I gave him a good faith deposit, (however, he assured me it was refundable if I changed my mind).
Now I'm in a quandry again.
If you have anything to add or any advice, I would appreciate. I really don't like this whole experience, but I do want this car and a good deal. Susan

Anyone can answer my question? When we talking about Invoice Price here, is it dealer's invoice (They showed me a formal print invoice of the vehicle) or Blue Book Invoice?
 
I just bought a GX 470 yesterday and here is what I got. I think it is a very good deal.
 
Gross CAP cost: $46,000
Lease term: 36 months
Miles per year: 12,000
Monthly payment: $618.10+$54.08(TAX)=$672.18
Cash upfront: One month payment + License Fees + Document Fee = $1,149.00
 
Actually I paid $323.00 over dealer's invoice or $901.00 over the Blue Book Invoice.
 
I got this GX470 from California Bay Area with following features
 
Total Vehicle Base Model ----- $46,225.00
Navigation/Mark Levinson Audio Pkg ----- $3,050.00
Third Row Seat ----- $2,030.00
Preferred Accessory Pkg ----- $323.00
Hitch Bracket (does not include Ball Mount) ----- $50.00
Destination Charge ----- $650.00
 
Total MSRP is $52,237.00

Premium Gasoline?? by petroman2

I am looking to purchase a 2005 GX470, is it OK to use 87 octane gasoline or do I need to use a higher grade? My dealer said that 91 octane or higher is required for maximum performance but that 87 is fine according to the Lexus manual. What do you use??

Sport Package driving impact by donnyg

We are about to buy GX 470 and considering the sports package. We drive thru a lot of winding mountain roads and are eager to reduce body lean. Does anyone know the impact of the 2005 GX 470 sports package on reducing side-to-side lean on turns? Consumer Reports said it should reduce body lean on turns but our dealer was not so sure. Thanks.
