I posted a short time ago about our newly purchased ES...that I was in love with the Acura TL but since this was my wife's daily driver I let her choose. To her, it was the ES hands down! My driver is a Vette Z06 so I was more interested in a sportier ride/handling, hence the TL. Just returned from a 1,300 mile holiday trip and gotta admit the ES was an absolute dream to drive. Comfort beyond measure and the "hushed" cabin was a total joy. Even the grooved concrete (which is noisier than hell) in Wisconsin was so quiet one could almost take a nap. Virtually ZERO wind noise at 75-80 mph. Gotta admit, she picked a real winner! |

I made contact with the internet department of the Lexus dealership in Thousand Oaks, CA (near Los Angeles) through Cars direct. Their initial quote is $35,570 plus tax and license fees for a 2005 Lexus 330ES with the following options: Black onyx exterior (Mfr Code  E202) Black leather interior (Mfr Code I21L) Nav system/ML audio pkg (Mfr Code NL) (PIO) Wheel locks (Mfr Code WL) VSC (Mfr Code VV) (PIO) Gold Package (Mfr Code GP) Xenon HID Headlights (Mfr Code HL) Wood Steering Wheel (Mfr Code WU) Burled Walnut Trim (Mfr Code #BW) (PIO) Carpet Trunk Mat (Mfr Code LM) Heated/Cooled Front seats (Mfr Code HH) All Season Tires/Chrome wheels (Mfr Code FK) Power Sunshade (Mfr Code HN) The internet sales guy stated the list price with the above options is $39,975 which makes his quoted price 91% of his list. Please provide your comments - is this a good deal? Thanks to all. |

Oops - I goofed!! The selling price as quoted by the internet department at Lexus of Thousand Oaks is $35,570 plus tax and license fees and the list price should be $39,064. That make the offer 91% of list. This was the initial offer - I have not started negotiating yet. Seems to me that some have been getting between 87-90% of list, and we are at the end of the year. Please share your thoughts about this offer. Thanks. |

2005 ES 330 MSRP=$35709. 36 month lease, no money down, 15k miles per year. Monthly rate includung 6% Connecticut sales taxes & inception fees (bank acquasition fee of $600 + $299 dealer conveyance fee rolled into lease payment), is $457.77. Thus the lease price WITHOUT taxes and WITHOUT the inception fees rolled into the monthly payment is about $405 per month. Sounded good to me. Any thoughts or comments?? Thanks, Bill
