Juno,
 
I bought mine at Stevens Creek Lexus in the Bay Area and went through the Internet Department. Since you are in the So. Cal area, I believe DirtyWater bought his in Long Beach and got around the same price give or take a $100.00 and he just made calls confirming the dealerships would honor the price of 35.6K OTD.
 
If you are at 36K OTD you can possibly grind out another 300-400 dollars? If the price is 36K plus Tax and lic. then I would say you have some work to do to get it where you want it.
 
It can be frustrating getting the price you want, but it is your money. Don't get tricked into whats another 1K spread over 3 years talk.
 
I will keep saying this about the price I bought at; If the dealerships are balking at to matching the price then it is a "fair" deal at 36.5K, if they all said cmon down then it was not a "fair" price.
 
Keep us updated.
 
Gamus

I got mine yesterday and I was able to match the price you paid; actually, little lower even with HID. I am so happy and satisfied with the car. I got mine at Santa Monica; obviously, they can do a lot better than Glendale does. Now I'm a Lexus owner! haha...thanks for your help Gamus. Regards Juno

do you know what price that is without TT+L? I'm trying to see how possible $500 to $1000 over invoice is.
 
I priced out an is250 and the invoice is $32,900 so im thinking 33500-34000 purchase price plus TTL. Is that something that is possible?
 
thanks.

Where are you at? I got mine in MN for less than $500 over in November 2008.

Juno,
 
Congraaaaattttsssss!!!!
 
Can you post your OTD price so the forum can get a sense where the new target price should be set at? Also, how was the sales experience, how long was the search and negoiating and did the finance guy give you the raised brow on the price it was sold at?
 
Thanks,
Gamus
