Thank you so much. I agree on the price being too high. Also, do you know whether the $2,500 factory to dealer rebate is something that I can bargain with on this deal? I plugged these numbers into a lease calculator myself and was not able to duplicate the payments being offered - it seemed as though there were either hidden fees or double taxes somewhere. I'll try to do better. Thanks again.

RX 350 lease 36 months/10K. Prem+Navigation!
After talking to different dealers in NYC area for couple of days the deals I'm getting are:
About 2700 total due at signing (taxes + 1st months payment, bank fee, licence and registration).
450 per month (no taxes, taxes paid upfront and included in the 2700)
Now, one dealer told me they could lower the monthly payment by 20 dollars which brings me to 430!
Is it possible to go even lower? How much lower is realistic?

Hard to answer w/o knowing your MSRP. If it's within $45,500, then $430 before tax would be your ballpark number.

I think MSRP is around that number.
Do you think squeezing out 420 per month is reasonable?

That's a great quote! Which dealership was that?
When I told my dealer on the phone that I want 420 per months it sounded like he had a stroke

$430 per month deal for a 09 RX350 with Nav+Premium is very good deal esp if you can try to get 12K will be even better.

I am actually about to start the same process of searching for the best deal to lease a 2009 Lexus RX350 and this post have educated me. However, I noticed you mentioned the dealer that produced the best quote was in NJ; can you let me know the name of that dealer and exact location in NJ? I reside on the outskirts of Philadelphia and, like you, are shopping for the best deal. I plan to purchase my car closer to December 30th, since the salesfolks will be more hungry to off load the cars to meet thier monthly quota. Also, I would really like to do most of my deal making online before I step foot inside the showroom. Do you (or anyone esle out there) have any advice for me?
FYI - I currently own a 2002 Lexus ES300 (I brought it) and will be trading it in when I make my lease deal .

Lexus Girl : Actually I have been looking aggressively on a Lexus 09 R350 and Infiniti 09 FX35 with the help of the forum. Though, slightly different body stypes they are top rated SUVs in their class. The 35 is definitely more sporty looking whereas the 350 more reserve. I notice within the last 3 months in Los Angeles, the discount off a fully loaded 350 ie with Nav, PP, ipod etc., been increasing to 7-9K off MSRP whereas the 35 is discounting 4-7K off MSRP. The base MSRP of the 35 general starts3--4 higher than the 350. All said, I beleive for a fully loaded 09 350, the sel price is about 41-42K(without a 4K loyalty rebate included) and 36-38K for a comparable equipped 350.This is my observation. The Infiniti rebate does make a differece.
All said, it is a matter of personal preferences and whether you are willing to shell out an extra 4-5K for a 350 and more if you are not. I am not an Infiniti owner, so for now, I am still focusing on the RX350 for now.
Inventory in California is still adequate and dealers in general are willing to deal.
