Good Deal? by rcole714

Curious to know if this is a good deal. Dealer is holding firm:
'08 GS350 AWD with NAV and options, list is $50,890. Dealer is offering at $46,500. 39 month lease, 12K miles, residual is 52% and MF is .00185 with no Cap Cost Reduction. They are anxious to close deal by month end, which is OK with me, but I'm wondering if there is room in the price?
 
This is my 1st potential lease, and he tells me that there is no negotiating residual value and MF. Is he leveling with me? If so, then only wiggle room is in the price and trade in value, I guess.
 
Swift reply is greatly appreciated, if I am to close the deal in Nov.
Thanks.

Hi rcole714
 
The MF and the residual seem to be what is being offered for the Dec sale. The 39 month lease was what also offered me. I would guess without knowing what your options are that the invoice is something like $ 45800. What is the monthly lease? Something like 700 to 1000 over invoice can be considered to be a good deal. You can buy down the the MF with multiple deposits. You could get the MF down to .00113. And you get the deposits back at the end of the lease

Hi, Thanks for the fast reply. Options are:
Navigation, rain sensing wipers, adaptive headlights, ventilated front seats, wood / leather steering wheel, rear spoiler, power rear sunshade, intuitive park assist, wheel locks, cargo net. Where does one go to find the dealer invoice? If you are right at $45,800, then they are offering at $700 over invoice. Monthly lease is $650. They mentioned buying down the monthly factor, but no one mentioned anything about it being refunded at the end.

I would say the best i can tell is the invoice on that car is $45500 that includes an advertising coast that does not show on web site costs list. To see the mark ups you can go to KBB.com or NADA.com and work through the prompts to get the cost. Than build your car on Lexus web site to compare MSRP and yes you get the deposit back.

2008 GS 350 AWD target price? by rumble1

I'm looking for a 2008 GS 350 AWD with the following options: ML+Nav, Rain-sensing wipers, Intuitive park assist, Wood& Leather steering wheel, power rear sunshade, rear spoiler, and ventilated front seats.
 
The MSRP from Lexus website (with options and destination charge) is $52,460. The invoice price (including options and destination charge) is $45,884. This does not include the additional $500 or so that I've heard (on this forum) dealers charge as advertising fee etc.
 
What would be a good price to pay for this?
I'm in Washington state but can buy from other states if I get a good deal out of WA. Thanks in advance for the help.
