Buying through AAA by lubdhak
Jan 22, 2004 (9:52 pm)
The members of AAA may have seen a list of the dealers where according to the ad is person who will give a quote to AAA members hassle free. I called a dealer in RI (Inskip Lexus, only one listed in southern New ENgland). However, they wanted me to go to dealership and then they said that they will need a copy of my AAA card. Even after I gave my card number they did not even give me a quote.
 
Anyone has any experience?

lubhak - I bought my car.. by atoews

through Sam's Club, which is similar to the way you are trying to do it.
 
I had to show up in person before the dealership would give me a quote.
My deal was about the same as others who did not go through an external source: (Costco, Sam's Club, AAA CarsDirect, etc).
 
If I were you, knowing what I know now, I'd go in with an 88% of MSRP and negotiate with that, up to about 90%. I would try a couple of dealerships at the lower end and move up to 90% with them.
 
However, it sounds like you want no hassle. Your quotes seem right in line with what folks are getting without negotiation. If you really want to avoid hassle, then take the vehicle at the 89% quote.

I got quote of ES330 with NAV, premium pack, etc, at approx $37400 (via Costco member ship). Does any one have buying experience with ES330 + Nav recently? What is the true paid price?

ES330 Prices in Boston area by md528
Jan 30, 2004 (5:56 pm)
I recently went to a local Lexus dealer and was shown an ES330 with a MSRP of 35,174 (no ML or NAV). When I inquired with the sales manager how much they were willing to dicsount the sticker , he replied "we can take it down hundreds but not thousands".
I read postings on this board that people are paying 89% to 90% of sticker price. Why the big discrepancy? That would mean that people are paying approx. $31,600 for a car with a 35,174 sticker. Are the prices I see for other parts of the country and those deals can't be had in the Boston area? Or was the Sales Manager giving me a a line of "BS"
Anyone in the Boston area buy a ES330 lately and how much of a discount did you get?

I have gotten internet quotes from Lexus of Westminster and Lexus of Riverside, and your deal is way better.
 
Was it just your timing, or what?

Lexus Internet buying experience by johnl10
Feb 07, 2004 (7:39 pm)
I am in the market looking for a ES 330 and is doing some price shopping via price quote on various N.CAL Lexus website. Lexus Pleasanton's internet sales manager was very friendly and offerd me an attractive price proposal upone my first request, Lexus Coliseum was also very straight forward about their price. Great experiences with them however Lexus marin's internet sale person was very rude.
