#41 of 1357 dbh126 - $1K over invoice? by lexusrock Oct 18, 2003 (9:18 am)
Is that about just $1,000 over invoice. That sounds very good. Did they quote you that price to begin with?   I am wondering can anyone get a nav/ml with a few pre-installed goodies (the top package) for $1K over invoice too. I've been to lexus dealers a few times and they always have very few with nav/ml, if any at all, in stock. They do have lots more non nva/ml in stock. And when you ask for it they say you have to pre-order one wtih nav/ml, esp. if you have a color in mind. Right away they are not willing to budge price much when they have to pre-order for you.
#42 of 1357 1.5k over invoice for NAV/Ml by arung Oct 18, 2003 (10:11 am)
One of the dealers is ready to sell the nav/ml for 1495 over invoice price(best deal).

Does it come with VSC and AVS with an invoice price of $34,225? So you are talking about $35,720 for the top package?   Where's that dealer if you don't mind, and is $1,500 over for NAV/ML a realistic target in all US regions?

This dealer is N Virginia. I am not sure whether I can give the name,as right now I am in nego with them. I have totalled all invoice price and will pay 1500 over total invoice price +tax/tags/proc if I buy one with Nav/ML,but I am not sure whether I shoud pay LDA (adv fees) or not. If you want their name email me at arunguptamdyahoo.com
#45 of 1357 2004 ES330 Price? by babs43 Oct 19, 2003 (6:19 am)
I'm seriously looking at the ES330 as my first choice of new car. Also looking at Infiniti G35 (real nice, but too small for me) and M45 (more money than I'd prefer to spend). I need help with a price. I got a quote on the ES 330 with VSC, HID, AVS, Premium Package, heated front seats and wood steering wheel, for $33,500. I'm thinking that's way too high considering the invoice numbers provided by Edmunds. For that price, I would hope to get the Nav System with the Audio package. Is that unreasonable? I need an expert opinion! Thanks!
#46 of 1357 ES330 price by jragosta Oct 19, 2003 (9:37 am)
My ES330 is similar to what you're looking at, although I don't have VSC or heated front seats. The best comparison I can give you is that I got nearly $1500 off list. Some people (presumably better negotiators than I) have gotten closer to $2000 on a low end ES330. Those are the kinds of figures you should be looking for.
#47 of 1357 Just a comment. by lehighlexus Oct 20, 2003 (11:58 am)
How are you guys doing? As a salesman for Lexus (In fairness I will not disclose who or where), I just had to open my mouth about this. For all the Lexus owners in here, you know that the Lexus ownership is much different than Chevrolet ownership. The reason for that is because we spend more time and money to make it the most pleasurable experience in getting a new car. But in order to spend money, we must make money. And I am not talking sticker either. All that your $4000 and $5000 off MSRP's are doing is turning Lexus back into a Chevy dealership. (ie Dealerships are cutting back on the loaner car fleet mainly because of cash flow and dealerships that used to offer valet service are thinning as a result. Now, I won't mention the name of my dealership but we aren't known for the best price. And because of that we can offer valet service and we always will have a loaner car for our customers. Which in the end is more important than getting an extra thousand bucks off a car at another dealer. I apologize, but I just had to vent. And also, because we don't sell for invoice, we retain the highest resale value in the industry. But I can see that dropping because of stuff like this. (Look at Infiniti's resale value)
#48 of 1357 $1,150 Over Invoice by mrrogers Oct 20, 2003 (12:21 pm)
I logged on to CarsDirect today, and used a zipcode for Los Angeles (91311). For a base 2004 ES330, the MSRP is $32,350 including freight. Invoice is $29,151. The CarsDirsct price is $30,301. It appears that the Los angeles market is still very competitive.

If there's any dealer willing to sell you an ES with nav/ml with invoice now, you'd run, not walk to get it. But I'd imagine it'd be from a place where very few people want a lexus ES.
#50 of 1357 why? by motownusa Oct 20, 2003 (3:09 pm)
It's the same car isn't it.
