luego - Apples to ??? by atoews

You seemed to be comparing the price of a vehicle with Nav/ML (gekko2 quote) to one without (elderkong).
 
36K sounds like a good price for a car with Nav/ML. In fact, I don't think I've heard of anyone who got < 36K deal on a car with those options.

I just based my computation through Carsdirect figures as follow:
32,685 Carsdirect price with NavML
   352 heated seats
   520 VSC
   512 High Intens Disch Lights
   264 Wood Strg whl
   168 Rear sunshade
34,501 Total
This was based on the assumption that the dealer would add $1000 to the invoice price.
In my case, I was looking for one with no NavML (just the typical Premium Pk, High Intensity Disch light, Wood Strg, Htd seats, Rear sunshade, preferred accessory pkg) and without any haggling, the dealer was willing to sell for $1,000 over invoice (same as Carsdirect) which amounted to $32,019. Elderkong did a lot better than this amount (he got tinted windows and chrome plate ($850) for a total amount of $31,500.
I agree though that it could be a higher amount with other dealers or if not in SoCal. As such, $36K could be a good deal to some and I respect that.

The best place to ask that is in our general Lexus ES 330 discussion. You can copy and paste your message there.
 
And a note for you and anyone else interested, that ES 330 discussion will be merged into the longer-standing Lexus ES 300 topic sometime shortly. So if you are interested in keeping up with the general ES 330 conversation, be sure to subscribe to the ES 300 one so you don't miss anything when it is moved. It will be renamed to include both models at that time.

Best time to deal? by soccermom15
Dec 12, 2003 (3:49 pm)
I'm looking for the best time to start dealing for a price on a new 330. Should I go right before Christmas or at the end of the year, right before New Years? I'm in Maryland - anyone have a good experience on prices in the area?

The best price I have seen so far on this board for an 04 ES with Nav/ML is post #179 by Babs which is $34,400. That's $3,500 off of MSRP!!!!
 
-$2,000 MSRP = dealer standard offer
-$3,500 MSRP = best??? (Nav/ML)
 
Can anyone confirm -$3,500???
 
Has anyone seen a better price?

I checked CarDirect for the 91311 zipcode (Los Angeles, CA). They have the 2004 ES330 with Nav and ML at $32,960. This really is a December to remember!
