hey everyone so ive been interested in an IS350 with nav, premium, and 18s (in socal) and been getting quotes in the mid 37k range... i got a call from a dealer telling me that they just got a IS350 special order with nav and ml sound but no 18 inch wheels or premium package for 37... id love the surround sound system but dont know if its worth giving up the premium package and if the 17inch wheels will make a huge difference in the handeling... any feedback from owners or potential buyers? thanks.

I finally got my new IS250 AWD Saturday, and I love it! Here are my particulars:
 
sticker $35,169
cap cost $33,269
additional $3000 cap cost reduction
total upfronts $3800 (covered by trade-in equity)
monthly payment (3yr/45K miles) $441 exact
 
I know this is not as good as some people on here, but I am satisfied. I had a trade in that they gave me a decent price, and I wanted a certain color (glacier frost) that was not readily available. All in all, I am pleased. Thanks!

Lexus IS 250 RWD Pricing? by rshocka

Is $34,000 for a 250 RWD with Navigation and Premium package on a black on black in the socal area a good price? I've worked down from MSRP of $36,504, but I'm having a hard time b/c no one has this car in stock! This is to purchase a car on the lot right now.
 
Please help

I am ready to buy a IS350 but our top color choices are Desert Sage or Smokey Granite - both uncommon colors. I have contacted several dealers around Palo Alto, CA and once they hear what colors I want, I get the usual BS about "they don't make the IS350 in these colors" or "I have checked the national inventory (supposedly) and there is nothing available in the entire country".
 
I am willing to pay for transportation if we find the right car. Can someone recommend a professional Lexus dealer who doesn't mind doing a little searching to make his money?
 
Thanks,

at keyes lexus in sherman oaks, i negotiated a price of $36,250 out the door (IS 250 with nav, premium pkg, 18" wheels). but this must be the "take what's in the lot, i'm not going to lift a finger to find the color you want" price... because after they took my deposit and promised a car in two weeks, he hasn't contacted me since.
 
at jim falks, he quoted me a price $1,500 over invoice which is $33,791 for a total of $36946.22 after T/T/L.
 
overall i paid $700 more at Jim Falks but i got the color i wanted, but more importantly the service and respect that i deserve.
 
happy shopping :o)

A little off topic but still can apply to car buying, it definately influences ones decision of when to purchase.

Highlights are 3 colors being replaced with new ones, 2 features previously only available in a package are available a la carte. Instead of the traditional antenna it will sport the sharkfin antenna look (I believe that's the one in the middle). Biggest tweak in the authors and my opinion is the VSC/VDIM defeat button, and there will be a second, less expensive sport package.
