Hi all, Just purchased a 2005 ES 330 for $32,000 as part of the December to Remember sale. It has HID, leather/wood steering wheel, shifter, cool/heated seats, 6 disc cd changer, cargo net, mat, wheel locks, 17 inch tires and rear shade. Could have done better if I had driven two hours to another dealer, but I feel good about it. Especially since I almost bought a 2004 Lexus sports edition with 3,200 miles for $31,000! Happy holidays.

| I thought the "December To Remember" sale was just a special on leases. Did you get the impression that it was a sale on the cost of the vehicle too? | |

Hi all, Anyone have Toyo Proxes J33 (summer) tires on their new cars, or even old ones? I can't find any info about this tire. Is it any good? My 2005 only has 192 miles, I put on 160 of them so they feel okay. Trying to figure out why my car has them. In other words was I ripped off?

I just got my 2005 black/black ES330 on Saturday, equipped with the following: HID headlights, power rear sunshade, heated/vented seats, 6 disc CD changer, wood steering wheel/shift knob, preferred accessory pk, 17" chrome wheels w/ all season tires, gold package. Price = $32,876 Ext warranty: 7 yr/100,000 mi - $1,350 Doc fee/Calif tax/license/tire: $2,704.77 OTD price = $36,930.77 MSRP - $37,515 32876/37515 = 87.6% By the way, one dealer (not the one I purchased from) sent me a copy of his invoice. It has the following info: Dealer holdback: $639.00 Wholesale financial reserve: 319.00 TDA: $400 I negotiated everything through emails and telephone calls. Made an appointment to pick up the car and was in and out of the dealership in 45 minutes! Best experience I ever had. This board was incredibly helpful in negotiating my transaction. Thanks to everyone who shared their deal information and their knowledge, especially atoews, carman, and wc.

Replying to: dwarnacutt (Dec 15, 2004 2:29 pm) (1) What the wholesale financial reserve ($319) amount is? (2) TDA of $400 I am considering purchasing an 05 ES330 with an MSRP of $35709 (so with HID premium pkg but w/o navigation or Mark Levinson. I am told Invoice is $31828. Would this imply the true cost of the vehicle to the dealer is closer to ~$30,900 (31828-639-319)? Dealers who've provided quotes claim that they need a minimum margin of $3-500 above cost, but I'm having trouble determining what "cost" is. Anyone have any recent purchase information available for deals in Connecticut, New York or Massachusetts?
