#483 of 1357 Re: davidz - Where does one get the invoice? [igiban #480] by davidz May 18, 2004 (6:16 pm)
Replying to: igiban (May 18, 2004 10:28 am) According to the Edmunds link I posted above, holdback is usually paid to the dealer at the end of the calendar quarter. I presume it's paid regardless of whether or not the dealer has sold the car.

Replying to: andre4000 (May 18, 2004 1:00 pm) With a MSRP of $34,734, I calculate an invoice price of about $30,620 (about 88.2% of MSRP).
#485 of 1357 Bank Fee for New York Through Lexus by jdimaria May 19, 2004 (5:42 am)
I am new to this forum, just trying to get some info. My father who currently owns a 2001 ES300 (the lease is ready to expire) would like to lease a 2004 ES330. However when he went to a dealer to make the deal with them although the monthly payment seemed OK the out of pocket fees seemed quite high. Around $2100. When my father question this the sales rep stated that this was because of the Bank Fee which through Lexus is $1200 for people who live in NY. Is this true or is this just a way for the dealer to make extra money off my father? Anyone lease recently in NY through Lexus? Replies to this message: davidz (May 19, 2004 3:02 pm)

Replying to: jdimaria (May 19, 2004 5:42 am) Sound suspicious to me. Call another Lexus dealer or look in the phone book for car brokers or leasing agents. Then you can compare prices, terms, etc.

Replying to: searchengine (May 18, 2004 11:53 am) You're correct. I had a bad number in my spreadsheet. Thanks for helping me catch it!   I get an invoice price of $33,717, but that's a lot closer to you number than to my original number.
#488 of 1357 February 2005 by carcar May 22, 2004 (1:29 pm)
Hello everyone! We're going to be in the market for a new Lexus in February/March of '05. I was wondering, that, since there would still be 2004s remaining on dealers' lots during that time, would it be unheard of to be asking for 81% of MSRP? I'm not sure on how long Lexus dealers keep vehicles on their lot, but would they go for that price during that time? The vehicle we're considering is this: 2004 Lexus ES330  No color preference  NAV/Mark Lev. System  HIDs  Heated seats  Power Rear Sunshade   The MSRP on that is $37,760 (including dest), and I'm looking for it under or at $30,000. So 81% is $30,586, stretching the budget. That's a $7000 discount on the dealer's part, so that's why I'm wondering if it's realistic to pay that for a 2004 Lexus in 2005.   Any input is much appreciated.

Replying to: carcar (May 22, 2004 1:29 pm) The price is realistic ... for a demo with 5k to 7k miles
#490 of 1357 Great! by carcar May 22, 2004 (6:56 pm)
kennyg5, I'm open to purchasing a demo from a dealer. Thanks for the response. But do dealers still have 2004 demos during 2005?
#491 of 1357 ES 330 ND/NL in TX/OK by rkurella May 26, 2004 (12:53 pm)
I got a quote for 32,900 for ND package. MSRP 36,384 (90.4%) via e-mail in TX. I saw lower %s as low as 87-88% in townhall. Any one around TX/OK have any experiences with lower than 90%?   Thanks to you all for your time and expertise.
#492 of 1357 Getting price quotes over Internet or phone by menhir May 31, 2004 (4:00 pm)
New to the forum. Would like to hear from people who got bids/negotiated mainly via internet or phone. Do you simply e-mail dealers and ask for quotes or do you give them a price? Also, any experiences with Pohanka or other Lexus dealers in the DC Metro area (N Virginia or Maryland)? Looking to buy with Nav and power rear shade -- MSRP 34780 including destination charge. Are folks in DC area getting 88% of MSRP as some elsewhere seem to have received? Thanks in advance. Replies to this message: wjl (Jun 01, 2004 6:36 am) menhir (Jun 01, 2004 4:48 pm)
