Ron,
 
Isn't it true that on the GS300, you have to tell the dealer how you want various programs set (e.g., whether doors automatically lock at X mph, unlock when ignition turned off, etc., etc.). Did you have the Sarasota dealer do that for you in advance, or did you take it in to a local Lexus dealer and have them do it after you got the car?
 
Did you get XM or Sirius radio installed--there or here?

Looking to buy a GS 430 for cash deal for Washington, D.C. area by flugel

What dealer in Florida and what city gave you such a good deal on your AWD GS 300?
 
Do I try to negotiate on the phone? With anybody or the mgr of internet dept?
 
does it complicate getting a good deal because I need to "peddle" my 9 month old 2005 ES330 that I bought new, loaded with every option?
 
Thanks,

Why are you getting rid of your new ES330? Transmission problems?

I didn't have them set those things up. I wanted to spend some time with the car to come up with a list of what I'd like done during my first free service visit.
 
I didn't get either XM or Sirius. I really don't like the installation of it on the GS. I'm a bit dissapointed with how they put an ugly box on the trunk and it's not even centered. Until they find a better way, I'll stick without them.

Ron,
 
I guess your local Lexus dealer will do the program settings when you bring it in. I think only the dealer can do it, and I think they give you one freebie. If you change your mind later, you gotta pay, I believe.
 
It's odd that on the GS the satellite radio antenna isn't a shark fin attached to the roof at the factory but some black box attached to the trunk by the dealer. Why is that?... I heard some rumor a few months back that Sirius antennas can now be attached to the rearview mirror on the GS, much less conspicuous, but no dealer has confirmed that that I've talked to.

"Sticker was $48,379, plus dealer add-on of 750 for satellite radio, making the dealer price $49,129. I paid $43,783 plus tax and license."
 
What was the invoice price wihth the options that you purchased? How much over invoice did you pay?
