If this is a REAL deal, then its the deal of the year!
 
The MSRP of a 2008 AWD IS250 with only premium package, HID, no nav
in the largest dealership in N J is $36,894!! - invoice is 32,000.
  
 The above works out to $460/mth incl tax.....no DP etc
 
So, your deal - $18 more per month, is a steal!!

_________________
 
The above IS250 AWD has a MSRP of $34000 -
you add $3990 the nav/bluetooth/camera package,
$850 for premium package and $825 for HID ...
 
total - around $39,000 - if your price is $33,700, you got
$5000 + off the MSRP - my guess its around or below invoice.
 
  
The MSRP of my 2008 AWD IS250 with only premium package, HID, no nav
in the largest dealership in N J is $36,894!! - my buying price -$32881(invoice ?$33K)
   
 The above works out to $460/month with tax.....no DP etc
 
assuming .00185 and 58% residual, you have $478/month with tax.
  
So, your deal - $18 more per month, ~$1000 more price paid and 10k miles
to my 12k/yr.....works out good!
 
Looking at this now, I beleive we both good a good deal but not
 
THE DEAL OF THE YEAR!
 
ENJOY

IS 250 AWD with HID + Premium by hannous

Hi all,
Just bought my 2008 IS 250 AWD with HID and Premium package (including the upgraded heated/ventilated seats). Final price OTD was $34,854. Take out $300 for TTL, 5% for taxes(MD) and I paid $32,908.57.
 
Extremely happy with my deal. I had been looking at the '08 Accord and was getting only about $800 - 1000 off of MSRP from the Honda dealerships. My dad finally said to look at the Lexus and man, was he right. We went in, test drove it, haggled for about 20 minutes and then agreed on the price. Gave them my 2000 BMW, they gave me $7,500 for my car and I'm only paying $27,354...Basically, I am paying $2,000 to go from the Accord EX-L V-6 with Navigation, to the Lexus without Navigation (buying the Garmin navigation from Best Buy tomorrow).
 
Couldn't be happier right now. Oh, they also offered me a half point lower on my financing.
GO LEXUS!!!

Canadian Buyer, Fleetrates by juiccie

Hi guys,
 
I stumbled upon this site after some researching. I was wondering if anyone has bought a car from fleetrates.com? Any bad/ good exps? Did you get your car? Any advice?
 
We are looking to get a new 2008 is250 awd imported to Canada, do you know how long this would take? Also, i would have to arrange shipping to my destination, correct? Would the car be stopped the border? I apologize for all the questions, but we have never bought a car from the states, so not quite sure how to deal with this matter, nor from the site. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! =)

Hi Eddy08,
I bought the car from Lexus of Towson in Towson, MD. The $34,854 was my total, out the door price (inclusive of taxes, title, etc). I'm hesitant to give you the salesman's name because there's this red writing here that says not to post the names of salespeople, telephone numbers, e-mail or other contact info. But the dealership was Lexus of Towson, for what it's worth.
 
Does your $35k drive out price include the HID xenon lights and TTL? I was happy with our deal. When we initially sat down they offered me $5700 for my Beamer, "discounted" the car and said they would sell it to me for $34k (after deducting the value of my car). My father said we'll pay $26k for the car. The salesman acted appalled for a while, then we finally agreed on $27,300 with the manager and the salesman. The final $54 was because the tags on my old car were expiring in a year (and had to be sawed off because of the rust )
 
When it was all said and done, they backed into the price of the car by adding $27,354 + increasing the value of my car to the price they wanted to write on the paper. It didn't matter to me because all I was paying was the $27k. They could have valued my car at a million dollars for all I cared. It was a 2000 323i with 76k miles in stick shift. I missed my old car for about 30 seconds, till I pressed the button to start the ignition on my new car.

thks for the infos. can you email his name/# to angell8hotmail.com. I really hate dealling with salesman. Got bad experience recently cause they're so rude when it came down to dealing. That's why i rather do it over the internet. I felt it's a waste of time that they make you wait, pretending to talk to their manager...etc... but anyhow, thks .....
 
thks....

Great Bay Area Deal in IS 250 by ajfinoak

I got a great deal at Colliseum Lexus in Oakland on an '08 IS 250 with Premium, HID and Nav for 32.8K plus T & L. Were very easy folks to deal with and I highly recc them. Had returned an '06 BMW 325 under the Lemon Law. Loved driving and handling of that car when it was not in the shop but did not want to chance another. Thought about an IS 350 for the speed but not worth 4-5K more since not much opportunity to open it up on Bay Area roads.

I've just got to say that I freaking love my IS350. Super fast and luxurious. My only wish was that it had programmable seats and a proximity sensor alarm.
