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.

Thanks for the response Deal Maker...
 
I am going to submit a quote online to start the process. You know once you put your name out there, they are all over you like Paronas and thats when my barging power will be initiated.
 
In addtion, I am also concerned about being shafted on the trade. Any advice on that? I have never leased and always sold my cars privately, so I am completely green to the trade process as well as leasing, although i have heard horror stories about trading.
 
Thanks again...LG

Hi, Regarding the trade- I tried to trade my vehicle in and all dealerships offered me way less than the KBB and my car has been taken to every service appt. and is in very nice condition... Good Luck to you. I am selling mine myself. Even on Ebay, Ive been seeing way more than what I was offered by these folks.

Where to negotiate? by ocotillo27

Present offer (in Phx). What say ye? This is just for the non-nav:
 
- MSRP: $40,551
- Present price: $33,771
- Residual: 52%
- Mileage: 15K/36 months
- MF: .00095 (.0015 was the "standard Lexus offer" and i had to quote the deals on this page to lower it)
- Monthly payment: $404 (before tax); $434 w/ tax
- Up front fees. Dealer is presently asking for -- Doc fee ($489); Acquisition fee ($700); Registration ($663); first month's payment ($434) -- Total ~$2,300
 
I think I can still negotiate on price, but was curious if others have had success waiving or lowering any of the up front fees. Any input is appreciated.

The only fees that are real is the 1st month payment, bank fee of $700, registration and plates (around or less then 200) and that's it!
 
So, the document fee and registration fee that you posted are crazy!
