#543 of 552 I think I did ok by ssooman Oct 14, 2009 (3:05 pm)
So, after visiting 3 dealers in new york( queens, rockville center, and Massapequa) and in that order, I finally was able to get 4000 + off MSRP. MSRP was 52700. I think this happened because I had them trying to beat the previous dealer. My experience at Massapequa was great. Sales guy really thorough. Explained all the features of the car to me before negotiating. He even took me for another test drive even though I told him I had already had one. My advise is to shop around to at least 3 dealers, They will try to beat the one before. I was told that There would not be plenty room for negotiating but I think overall because I shopped around, I was able to do ok. RX 450h with navigation package.

Replying to: texamau1 (Oct 14, 2009 6:33 am) the deal was after trade and no navigation and no rear entertainment so I guess not a good deal. It was at Little Falls, NJ Lexus dealer. I am still looking as I really want the 450h. Keep posting final prices.

Replying to: jimnj (Oct 19, 2009 12:04 pm) I got $4500 off MSRP of $53210 in San Francisco Bay Area. There are more than half a dozen Lexus dealerships within a 50 mile radius, and I called each one in order from north to south and kept ratcheting up my discount. They all claimed no negotiation, but I found that $2500 off MSRP was not a problem - every single one would meet $2500 off if you sound serious on the phone. I had multiple offers at $3000 off, one at $3500 off, and finally closed at $4500 off. Never had to enter a dealership or meet a salesman - car was delivered to my home the same day I began my negotiation.   Negotiate hard. These are NOT "rare" vehicles if you are content with the standard $53k MSRP spec vehicle that is shipping to most dealerships (that package has nav, luxury package, etc, but not rear seat entertainment, variable suspension, or radar speed control, which was a huge loss for me, but not worth $4500).

Replying to: smirkracing (Nov 14, 2009 3:59 pm) that sounds like a great deal! I'm also in bay area and shopping for Rx450H, can you tell me which dealer offered you that price? You might just save me LOTs of phone calls! Thanks!

Replying to: smirkracing (Nov 14, 2009 3:59 pm) Great price and negotiation! I did not have the same luck pricing in the south Bay Area, so would also love to know the dealership info..

Replying to: smirkracing (Nov 14, 2009 3:59 pm) I too cannot locate a 450h with the Luxury package - all dealers telling me that it does not come standard and that I would have to order it special. Even contacted an Auto Broker, who is able to save me an extra $800-$1,000 more than the best deal I could find, so long as it is on the standard package. I have found only one 450h with the Luxury package and it was only there supposedly because someone had ordered it and changed their mind... I began negotiating a deal and about the time I agreed to the deal, they had sold it to another couple who was apparently negotiating at the same time in a different cubicle. Cannot find ANY with the Pre-Collision system. I've search Northen California, Bay area and all the way down to Southern California. No Luck. Would love any insight you might have!
#549 of 552 residual and money factor by exoram Nov 19, 2009 (12:32 pm)
Hey looking to lease the rx450h . Didnt see any other thread dedicated to leasing an rx450h on this site, so i figured this was the closest. I'm looking to lease this car for a 48month period with 15k miles a year. Does anyone know what the residual and money factor would be for this ? Replies to this message: kyfdx (Nov 19, 2009 4:21 pm)

Replying to: exoram (Nov 19, 2009 12:32 pm) Just go ahead and post in the regular RX350 Lease Question discussion..   As long as you note that it's the RX450h, then Car_man will give you the correct numbers..   regards, kyfdx

#552 of 552 our 450h deal with trade-in by dorenescar Dec 08, 2009 (9:15 pm)
We heard that there was great trade in value for our 07 400h, and were interested in the very positive reviews of this years upgraded 450h. We went to a dealership to test drive, were totally impressed, and decided to try to make it happen. The most workable sales guy was from internet sales at Magnussen Lexus in Fremont CA. We were offered $3000 over kelly blue book 'good' rating for our 400h, even with old tires (one spare on board) and no mats. This was added to $3500 off MSRP. Our total value saved was at least the $6500. for this deal. They seemed far more flexible than other dealerships we dealt with, so I think they are a good bet for Bay Area buyers. It was a relatively painless transaction, but we did have to stay solid on what we were willing to pay and trade for.
