Ok so I finally bought one. by md_rocks

Same options as my previous post so I won't bother pasting it in here. Everyone ended up matching everybody else, but I got from Tustin Lexus because they were the closest and they have a program where I can prepay for all the tires my car needs for as long as I own the car.
 
$33000 OTD before tires/100K warranty. I didn't include those b/c not everyone will get those. I think I did pretty good. I think the before tax was right around $30,300. Got Black Sapphire/Cashmere. Was going to get Matador Red - if anyone wants a pristine Matador Red - go to Westminster. I left one there with the plastic still on it.

Which dealership is this? The best I've gotten for the IS 250 is 32,887 plus tax and licensing and not OTD from Tustin Lexus.
 
Thanks!

Hi,
 
That's an excellent DEAL!!!!
I live in Irvine, and today asked for quote via email.
They gave me $33,186.00 which I was not too pleased with.
 
I am right now shopping btw G35 Sedan & IS250.
 
This is what the internet specialist from Tustin Lexus wrote.
 
"I'm sorry to say if you compare the two cars, the only thing going for the Infinity is that it has more horsepower. The Lexus has a 6speed auto vs G35's 5sp, the Is has a tighter turning radius, larger brakes, better gas mileage, Ventalated and heat seats (G35 only has heated front seats), standard 13 speaker stereo vs. G35's 6 speakers, standard auto headlights (not available on G35) and many more. So you can see that while the G35 may seem less expensive
when you compare standard features the Lexus is a far better value."
 
Okay...So, I would like to see if I can get the best value deal. I do no really need Nav. option. $33000 OTD sounds excellent. Which option did you get with this? How much did it cost tires/100K warranty?
 
Let's get some good deal!!!!
Thanks!!!

Hi, are you guys talking about the RWD or the AWD for the IS 250? I am assuming you guys are talking about the Premium Package (Basic) not the Lexury nor Nav

Your MRSP on your car with the packages is about 37715 and you got 4000 dollars off that before tax. Not too bad, but you can do better. I would say if they can give you 33000-34500 OTD, you are doing good

Well it seems everything got sorted out, but mine only had the premium package basically. RWD, not AWD. Oh and if we're getting down to the nitty-gritty, my price before TTL was $30,294
 
Tires for life cost $1795. You have to pay for mounting but on tirerack these bad boys cost $800 a set and the tires only have a treadwear rating of 140 so I think it was worth it.
 
I got a 5 yr/100K warranty for $2500. It covers every major component and it is transferable/refundable if I sell the car.
 
Both of these items were negotiated AFTER I agreed on a price, so there wasn't any lowering of the price simply due to these potentially high-profit items. I just like peace of mind. There was also no trade to complicate matters (I sold my car to carmax).
 
Any SoCal Lexus dealer worth their salt should be able to match this deal. Lexus of Westminster had a good selection but the tires for life got me into Tustin. Newport Lexus is actually the dealership that came through with the offer first but since Tustin and Newport are in the same "family" of dealerships they just matched it.
 
I love my car and am taking it easy so far, gotta break her in
