I have been looking at buying a 2008 RX400h. I don't buy a new car very often, so I am a bit reluctant to buy a car that will be an "old design" (as compared to the re-designed 2010). I figure that Lexus will incorporate design changes based on nearly four years of production and customer feedback. I know there are always risks associated with buying a "new model", but it seems to me that with Lexus, there's a strong chance things will be done right.
     Has anyone heard anything more about the re-designed 2010 RX? Does anyone have any other thoughts or insights as to the logic of this approach? Thanks!

with every avail option, I live in the Atlanta market. This will be my first purchase on my own. What is a fair price? I came up with 35k. I have seen them advertised up to 40k Is there really a five thousand dollar difference in fair?

I got an offer to buy a 2008 AWD with premium plus, navigation, wood, 18" wheels, heated seats, tow prep, preferred accessories for 47,888 (not including tax, license, fees.) I asked another dealership if they'd sell the same vehicle with mark levison for 48k even and they said no. A third dealership has offered the car with ML for 48,270. Apparently with gas prices being high and my preferred color combo (black ext/cashmere interior) being popular, they're not giving great deals of late. That said, I live just south of San Francisco and it might be a geography thing.
 
I'm not feeling enthusiastic enough about the vehicle or these prices to purchase. Hopefully someone can post a dealership and person in the bay area worth talking to?

I just went thru the process of purchasing an RX400h a little over 1.5 months ago. At that time the dealerships were pushing hard to move the inventory. 3 different dealerships (under different ownership also) stated that at the beginning of July the price of the RX400hs were going up by $500 and if you leased the residuals percentages were going to decrease by 2%. Additionally one of my relatives that works for Toyota in Japan said that supplies will be extremely tight for the remainder of the year since battery production is being pushed toward the Prius. With all that info we pulled the trigger 2 days before the end of June. $48,270 is a reasonable deal, I was able to do better back then, but factor the stuff explained above I can see why the prices aren't going any lower. On a side note, I went in with a client of mine to purchase one and in the two hours we were at the dealership 3 were sold. He got his for $48,750 loaded from Fremont. I got mine from Stevens Creek, SJ/SC.

I ended up purchasing thru Stevens Creek. They replied to my inquiry at their website in less than 24 hours with a price lower than any of my local dealerships had been throwing my way. In addition, despite being told by Putnam Lexus that black on tan was very hard to find and impossible to really discount on, the Stevens Creek rep offered it to me for 48.432 over the phone with no haggle. I ended up buying for close to that---I went in and haggled a bit cuz they undervalued my trade in but in the end, I was just ready to get it done with.
 
Overall, I was very unimpressed with Putnam. They repeatedly told me the car I wanted (colorwise) was pretty impossible to find and they could only offer "$500 courtesy discount from MRSP." Lexus of Serramonte was friendly but didn't bother trying to meet offers I got from other dealerships and let me walk off the salesfloor. Stevens Creek is HUGE, and the staff seemed friendly and efficient during my sole visit there.
