I think you can do better. I got a 2009 RWD IS250 smokey granite on black PLUS premium package, navigation, and 18" wheels (preferred accessories is standard on 2009s so that makes no difference in price). So basically the same car you want except I got mine WITH premium and navigation and not with a spoiler (personally I don't like the spoiler) and I paid $32,448 (MSRP $37,656) -- so less than $1000 more for premium AND navigation (navi alone is $2200 or so invoiced). And I got my car 4 months ago. You should definitely be able to get the car you described for much less considering your configuration and the fact that the 2010s will be out soon (the ISC's are already 2010s). It sounds like the only option you're adding to the car is 18" wheels and a spoiler. That invoice sounds way too high for that. If you have a Costco membership, use their auto program, the participating dealerships will show you the invoice price on the car.
 
Also, what is the dealer fee? Is that like just the document fee? If so, you're being charged about $300 too much for that.. sounds like they're adding money on the backend.

Thank you for the feedback.
 
I priced it out at Costco and am seeing an invoice of $31184 (Just added Pref Acc package, 18" with tires, and rear lip spoiler).
 
Priced out at Truecar.com (same config) shows and invoice of $31613

Currently I have the dealer offering me invoice pricing on the car and knocked him down a bit. I don't know how I can get, or if I can get him to bring me down another 1k =(.

Think twice about getting the 18" wheels/tires, I know from experience. The soft tires that Lexus puts on wear out very quick. If they last 20,000 miles you are doing great. Then you have to plan on $1000 to replace them, and it you want something quiet plan on much more. My wife complained about how loud her car was after I put new tires on it. She told me I bought cheap tires, yea cheap tires at $1000.

2009 IS250 AWD for $33K by timlam

1) Hello. I'm new on this forum. I live in Massachusetts and there is a 5% tax (soon to be 5.25%) which equate to roughly $1650 in tax on the Lexus IS 250 AWD. When people express the term "Out-of-door" price, it means state tax is included in the total price, correct?
 
2) I received a quote for the 2009 IS250 AWD (MSRP $34.9K) with spoiler, weather mats, and preferred accessory package. Note there is no navigation. The dealer quoted $33.0K as out-of-the-door price. Is this a good deal? If not, please provide your out-of-the-door purchase price.
 
3) Realistically, I want the 2009 IS250 AWD (MSRP $34.9K) with navigation. Please let me know what is a great out-of-the-door price for this vehicle with navigation at this time.
 
4) If you are in Massachusetts (or New England in general) and you have received as awesome price for 2009 IS250 AWD with navigation, please provide the dealership and salesperson information.
 
Thank you so much for your help. P.S. I really need a car as soon as possible.

Bought one yesterday in Boston area.
 
IS250 AWD with LD package (Memory seats, HID, rear sunshade, rain wipers), PT option (ventilated from seats), navigation and some preferred accessories package which included trunk mat, wheel locks and a cargo net... also had headlamp washers.
 
$36,500. Note that you should just get the TMV from edmunds and add a couple hundred dollars for advertising fees. That should be your target. Aim a little below invoice and let your salesman go to work for you.

Please help, I was quoted $32,890 (online advertised sale price) for IS 250 RWD w/premium plus package and a "preferred accessory package" that costs $210.
 
MSRP: 34,190 (includes destination) +210
Invoice: 30,857 +210

How low should I start my opening bid? 30,000?
