#371 of 1357 woodyww1 - 89.68% of MSRP by atoews Feb 19, 2004 (10:32 pm)
.. is just about in line with what others have reported paying since November 2003.
#372 of 1357 jim04- I agree with you by atoews Feb 19, 2004 (10:40 pm)
If qwerty's car was a 41,000 MSRP and he got it for 35,000, then we are talking 85% of MSRP!!   Wonder how much qwery would charge others to negotiate for a vehicle on their behalf!!

Congratulations on your new ES330. You got a very good price. From where and which dealership? What other options did you get besides Nav.

Looks to me like qwerty might be a shill for that web site.   wood 3585...based on what I got and what I've seen others report here, that sounds like a good deal. Take it and run like a thief in the night, LOL.   Guys, I LOVE this car! It is everything my reseacrh said it would be.   Of course, I've only had it since Wednesday.

Jim, I am glad that you like the new ES330. I would be interested in what kind of mpg you get when you can get it for me. I would like to know if mpg suffered at all with the larger 3.3l engine.

Well, I have a function on the car which calculates average mpg for me. The mileage so far is 19.8, which has been mostly city driving. That's pretty close to the rating. But I only have 280 miles on the car. I would expect that as the engine breaks in (2000 miles perhaps) that fuel economy would improve. I think the extra power is a welcome and very helpful addition. I love having that extra power. I was raised on GM v-8's, which I have had in a lot of cars. In certain situations, it can be crucial to have that reserve.   I will try to remember to post the mileage number after 2000 miles.

Options were ND-Navigation Package, HN- Sun Shade, HL-HID Headlamps, HH- Heated Front Seats, WU-Wood Steering wheel and shift nob. Hope this helps.
#378 of 1357 Big Question - PLEASE HELP by wood3585 Feb 21, 2004 (1:35 pm)
I'm about to close on a deal but there is something that concerns me. The Lexus ES330 that I'm about to buy already has 32 miles on it. Is that normal on a brand new car? In the greater scheme of things 32 miles don't sound like a lot but it got me thinking that 32 miles it's a bit too much. There were some dirt stains in the front and back seats and the salesperson said that it probably was the Lexus mechanics who are not very clean but are required to inspect the car when it comes from Japan. That concerned it a bit although I know that the car could be completely cleaned.   Again, is 32 miles within what could be expected?
#379 of 1357 wood - 32 miles would not bother me.... by atoews Feb 21, 2004 (5:01 pm)
But if they can't get the dirt stains off, I'd negotiate for a VERY large discount.
#380 of 1357 wood3585 by gordo95 Feb 21, 2004 (6:10 pm)
Did your quote ($34,400) reflect the small mileage that was already on the car? I am also looking for a 2004 ES 330 with Nav. and Mark Levinson and everything else except AVS, chrom and adjustable pedals in the DC Metro area. So far, most of the quotes I've received over the web are not very impressive (93% of MSRP). I've seen some other posts indicating an average of 88%-91% so curious whether these are best negotiated in person, rather than over the phone/web. One dealer even told me that ES 330 w/NAV are becoming hard to find. First I've heard of this. Any thoughts?
