Replying to: briegel (Dec 14, 2007 9:28 pm) They mentioned that Lexus, not them, was payin 5 percent of the sales tax. Subtracted from our 6.25 percent rate in Texas for new car purchases. They essentially aborbed about 1800.00. We paid the other 1.25 percent via the L&M fee itemization. They started at .00255 at the one dealership in town and when we mentioned to the dealership that we eventually bought from that the other dealership offered .00225 money factor, they matched it with no questions. Both dealers volunteered the sales tax promotion info so I don't think this was a sales gimmick/sleazy tactic ONE of the dealers used. I think it is a GIMMICK but somehow it comes from LFS and is either regional or national. The GIMMICK does seem to save you money but its playing games, confusing to the customer, I certainly would rather not play games. I'm just curious if other purchasers this month were told about the sales tax promotion and what kind of MF they paid. I want to know if we way over paid on the MF. If so, I have issues with my local dealership. Of course it is contingent on what the bottom line out-the-door lease payment was...i.e. if they did indeed play games with numbers but we still got a good overall deal because they gave us a higher discount on the car, then ok, but I know next time I will be a much better informed lease customer. |

Replying to: briegel (Dec 14, 2007 10:02 pm) They do mention that there is x amount of taxes and fees rolled up into the monthly payment. Bottom lin eis- if it is tax deducatible...you need ot be able to separate out that tax... |

| Does anyone know if the 400h qualifies for the Dec to Remember lease money factor of .00155 posted elsewhere on these forums. I am being told the mf for the hybrid is .00275 and that the lower mf is only for the gas RX. I am getting a good discount off MSRP of $3,000. Thanx! | |

I just got back from the dealership and here is the offer they made to me on a 36 month lease on a new RX350 - I wanted to see what everyone thought concerning if this was a good deal or not. The deal is for $507 a month, and I am paying the first month, lic, fees.. in the amount of $1500 to sign and walk away with the vehicle. The money factor is good at .00135, and I have not seen any deals as good as this one. The only caveat is that I have to do it by the 2nd of January. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
