| I just got a brand new IS250 RWD, no packages, automatic transmission, tungsten pearl for $30,750. I thought this was a good price, but I am not sure. | |

Just got back from the dealer, and walked out with an offer of $33,000 on a sticker price of $34,300. I called the dealer and told him what I wanted, and luckily they had two cars on their lot. One had just come in yesterday and was sitting in their showroom. It was the exact car I wanted: Tungsten pearl, sterling interior, premium pkg, 18" wheels, etc... I need to put my deposit down today...any thoughts on the offer price?

At keyes Lexus in Van Nuys, I was able to negotiate a price of $31,679.00 for a fully loaded IS with Nav and Chrome wheels. TTL was 8.75% plus I added Lo-Jack and extended warranty - they wanted $2,600 for the extended warranty and I said no way - immediately the guy came down to $2,000 so I sort of figured to myself what a timing belt might cost me and offered $1,600 - he countered with $1,800 and I took it. Whole deal OTD was 34,684.00. GREAT CAR - I LOVE IT! |

Have been getting nowhere with internet depts. of the 4 dealerships in Houston market to come off of MSRP by more than $500! Have mentioned that the rest of the country is averaging $2,200 to $2,400 off of list with the same shortage of supply. They seem to suggest that the market here in Houston is different than the rest of the country even in places with similar huge demand. Their explanation is that consumers in our market are willing to pay MSRP and that they don't need to discount. They also offer me cock and bull stories about them offering either other service features typically billed, or compting such things as window tint or other dealer add on accessories. Is anybody else in the Houston market experiencing this, or are the dealers just wanting me to step foot on the showroom to play their mind games? I've been a Lexus owner for 12 years, but have never paid MSRP! I also have tier 1+ credit, but the best money factor offered on a 36 month, 12K/yr lease has been .00295 with a 60% residual based on the IS250RWD with premium pkg., 18 inch tires/wheels, trunk mats, and spoiler. Need some guidance. Love the car but don't love the sticker price!
