TO: LEXUSCT RE: Which dealer?? by billod

The dealer I used was Lexus of Greenwich. I was going to buy in late November but was advised to wait till December to take advantage of the Dec promo. So, yes, the December to Remember promo lowered the rate even more. Hope this helps.

Prospective Alabama Buyer by kgd36580
Dec 25, 2004 (4:56 pm)
Has anyone made a purchase from a dealer in AL, MS or LA lately. I sent emails to six different dealers with specs on the ES330 I wanted and was surprised at the lack of interest shown. I visited the Lexus dealer's lot in Mobile, AL and again was surprised at the lack of inventory and the very slim selection of colors available (3). I had intended to buy before Dec.31 for tax purposes but may look at a different auto. I made my last auto purchase (Toyota Camry) over the internet and had plenty of interest.

Hi,
I am living in VA too. Can you tell me the dealership and the sales person which you bought the car? I want to go take a look. The car you bought have MSRP $35919, $32000 + tax and tag is the final deal, am I right?
 
Thank you and Happy Holidays.

Yes, 32 k plus tax and tag. Actually I e-mailed all the Lexus dealers in va. They all met the price and I could have also received a $500 option if I had driven to northern va. But sometimes time is money.
 
I got car at the Richmond dealer. My mrsp was 35,200.
 
Good luck. Let us know how you make out.

VaBuyer, sounds like you've worked out a pretty good deal. Does anyone have any buying experience in the New York City/Long Island area? I'm looking for pretty much the same ES330 package listed by Vabuyer (message #776). The only dealer I have so far talked to gave me a price of $33,000, which also includes window tinting. I hope to do better. Would appreciate any input. Thanks and Happy New Year!

December to Remember? by lexushunter
Jan 01, 2005 (3:39 pm)
I just bought an ES330, MSRP $35269 for $32250. I probably could have saved another $500 by driving 2-3 hours but it wasn't worth the time and hassle.
 
I asked my salesman several times about the December to Remeber sale. He told me that the incentives for that sale were basically limited to finance rates on leases.
 
The 60-month purchase rate they had advertised was 5.75. I shopped and found a 60-month rate of 4.69 which the dealer matched.
 
Now I see on MSN and Edmunds that the rate for December to Remember is 3.75. Based on the amount I financed, this means about $10 a month - not really a budget breaker.
 
I know this is probably a case of 'buyer beware', but I'm wondering - should I bring this up to the salesman and/or dealership as I think they should have informed me of this?
 
Thanks.

Auto Recall on 2005 Lexus ES330 by philly2
Jan 04, 2005 (9:11 am)
In September I purchased the 2005 Lexus ES330. Last week I heard that there is a recall for seat belts front buckle assembly part and that dealers will replace the front passenger seatbelt buckle status switch. The recall began on December 20, 2004. Has anyone received a notice on this recall?
Thanks.

You'll get a better response if you re-post in our regular Lexus ES 300/ES 330 discussion, since this one is reserved for pricing & purchase information.
