Since July 1, has anyone been able to buy an IS250 AWG for no more than $1,000 over invoice? I'm not looking for a specific dealership, just want some idea of how hard to push a local dealer.
 
Thanks!

hey guys, so this forums been insanely helpful, ive been following since september... just got my IS250 with nav, premium, spoiler, accessory package, 18inch rims (smokey granite w/ black interior) for 33,000......... thats a great deal from what ive been reading. I got it from Lexus if Newport Beach, just opened a week ago and they have a pretty good selection and are willing to deal (btw beautiful dealership... makes fletcher jones mercedes look like sh*&). Oh and some people were debating about the standard sound system before... we have a SC430 and LS430 with mark levinson and in my opinion the standard IS250 sound system sounds better (not to say it sounds better than the surround sound systems now available in the IS/GS/ES) but def better than the older generation ML sound systems IMO...

Ok...this sounds like the most amazing deal I've researched so far on the IS250. Was that a CAP COST reduction due to money you put down on the car or did you have minimal drive off? I will definitely call them. Did you lease or buy? If lease, do you mind sharing what your residual value, money factor and after tax payment was, so I can try to get a similar deal? If you have a salesperson you dealt with, I would be happy to give him my business as well.

I wasn't aware of that.... my 1998 SC300 had one so I assumed the newer Lexus' would too. My hubby is the service expert and I am the accounting expert and I am here to tell you that the extended warranty companies will pay as little as possible! Do not let the finance/salespeople try to tell you that the warranty will cover everything...it doesn't! As I said before normal wear items are NOT covered.
 
You asked if my husband and I get into the Honda vs Lexus debate..... no because there is NO comparison! He knows it and I know it! Lexus blows Honda (and Acura too for that matter) out of the water! My husband was so disappointed with the quality of the current Honda/Acura line that he actually traded his RSX Type S in and bought a Subaru WRX STi! I was shocked because he ALWAYS drove Honda/Acura products. He likes my IS250 but thinks it is too slow! He would have preferred the IS350 but even getting it for invoice (since I work there) was too pricey for me! I LOVE MY IS 250!!! It is plenty fast for me and my 4 year old (who needs to go that fast when they have such precious cargo on board).

Special order IS 250 - how long it takes? by blueskie

I ordered mine this week by putting a non-refundable deposit down. Auto, Nav, 18" wheels, Z1 package and rear spoiler.
 
Can other buyers please share your experience on how long it take for the car to arrive? I was told that the estimated time is four months but it always comes earlier than that. What are your experiences?

This price is too good to be true. Are you sure this is the correct? The invoice price with nav is already 31,500. Can I get the name of the salesperson you dealt with?

Hi Lexusgirl1,
 
I ordered a white with Nav but I didn't want the wood trim so I special ordered it. It will come as 07. I really hope it will come sooner than 4 months. 4 months is kind of a long wait.
