We have gone to Tampa Lexus to test drive and were quoted $40k for "a basic model" RX that included a sunroof, cargo mats, etc. You know- the stuff dealers throw in now but still call it basic. I guess the RX no longer comes with cloth seats and leather is standard now? But when I got home, I saw they had a basic RX on the lot for $37,900 on their website. They upsell for certain colors, etc.
 
I have emailed Lexus of Jax and they quoted me $37,300 + tax,tag, title.
 
Cars.com quoted $36,000 out the door but they also said the MSRP was $33K.
 
These prices do not take into consideration the dealer holdback or any rebates the manufacturer gave the dealer.
 
I think this car can be purchased in the low $30s if you truly haggle and are not afraid to walk or go to dealers all over the state. Of course, if you are financing, excellent credit is a must to get a deal like this.......
 
I know that Lexus is not in the same trouble as in American car makers, but their sales are still way down......
 
I have learned that internet car buying (email the dealer what you want and ask for a price) has become very popular and is a great way to get a handle on what other dealers are offering. I am thinking of pursuing this route and seeing how far it goes. I'll post on my findings- please let me know how it goes with your deals also. THANKS!!!!

Lease on 09 RX350 AWD 36Mo/10K by fanat

Hey guys,
 
I just got this deal from Bay Ridge Lexus in Brooklyn, NY this Saturday:
 
36 month lease/10k
RX350 AWD, Navi and Premium Luxury Package
Total due at signing - $4,830 - Includes taxes upfront, various fees and large down payment.
Monthly payment 456.76
 
Without getting into MSRP and money factors is this a good deal overall? Seems like an ok monthly payment but should I negotiate on lowering total due at signing? Seems like many people here got much better deals on that.

Hi Again- Today Tampa told us we would not get a better deal than $36,000 out the door price on the basic model that we were quoted by someplace else and another dealership said they were taking $3500 off the MSRP. That leaves us a few more places to look at. I would have thought these dealerships would want to get all of the 09's out before the new ones come out early next year but I guess not ... Will keep you posted with the next few places we check with. Hope you are having good luck with your search.

RX350 list 44,000
Sale price 35,000
 
That was at the end of November in LA. Lots of folks on this board have gotten
7 to 9 off list.
 
There is now an additional $1,500 cash back to the Lexus dealers so I assume someone is going to be the first to get $10,0000 off list. The best time to deal may be between Christmas and New Year.
 
The dealers know the 'RX 10 will be out soon, inventory is sky high, the economy is getting worse, and another interest rate cut is on its way.

Wow, that is a great deal. Im assuming you had to pay taxes on top of the 35,000? Guess I still have some work to do. Im not very good at this! Fortunately, we can wait until after Christmas or New Years to get a better deal. But hey, if I could get $7000-9000 off the price, I would take it now in a heartbeat!
THanks for the info.

dricool1 - my salesman at Rallye Lexus in Glen Cove was Karl Hernandez and thus far i am pleased with the level of service (though there were some minor things wrong with the car which need to be addressed prior to my accepting delivery). as i wrote, lexus of manhattan and prestige lexus are very competitive in pricing the premium plus + nav models which msrp for $46,241 - those have been selling pretty consistently at 38.0k to 38.5k at those locations. the pebble beach is a ltd edition with a slightly higher msrp, therefore i had to pay a higher price for the vehicle. there are really only 2 feature sets available in the northeast - premium plus with or without the navigation unit. the navigation adds about 2900 to msrp.

The 2625 is a security deposit (refundable at lease end) which reduced the money factor. Dealer is Lexus Marin in N. Cal - very professional and no BS

It would be easier, if you tell us at least MSRP. But it looks like a rock bottom price. Mind to tell the dealership name/location?
