Premium Package doesn't include the 18" wheels (I think in 2008 the accessories package also wasn't included stock, but I could be wrong). But didn't you say you got your car in February?? I got mine in March and back in February (I was looking then) they had a $3500 dealer rebate on the 2008 models so you shoulda been able to get your car for $3500 to $4000 under invoice which would have been one heck of a steal! I was looking to do that myself since the only real difference between the 08's and 09's is the turn signal on the side mirrors and something else minor.. but there weren't any 2008's (especially with the configuration I wanted) left to be found by the time I got my car in the end of March.

The 2009 Premiums lost the wheels and headlights. Not sure about the accessory package, but likely lost that too.
 
$4000 under invoice- no way, not unless it was a salvage, demo, damaged, had some other "catch", was a GM SUV, or built on April 1st.
 
Other changes for 2009 include new wheels designs, new bumpers, grille, foglights, and taillights. Also new clock, center stack redone, new interior and exterior colors, contrasting stitching on seats, VDIM standard on the 250, can use steering wheel paddles w/o being in "S" mode, and supposedly revised steering and suspension tuning- although no one has ever been able to officially report feeling any changes.

Hi Car Man,
 
Can you tell what the MF and RV are for Los Angeles? I have been interested in an IS250 to lease with 15K miles/year.
 
Thanks!

I was. Here's the information that you're looking for, nuclear360. Lexus Financial Services' July buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 IS 250 AWD with 12,000 miles per year are .00045 and 52%, respectively.

Go for the 128i coupe lease. I just did it for $3500 down plus a $2000 refundable security deposit (total $5500 due at signing) for $242/mo for 30 months with 12k/year and that's after all taxes, title, licence etc.

Sorry but $3500 down on a lease is ludicrous and dumb. I know the $2000 was MSD's.

Hey guys,
 
Northern NJ here. Got a quote for a base IS250 with 10k miles per year, 36 month lease.
 
$1,600 out of pocket, $449 per month (including taxes).
 
How's that sound to everybody? Ready to pull the trigger.
 
Thank you =)

Oh my god, that's horrible. Please take the time and read through this forum and save yourself from making a horrible decision. I've posted the deal I got nearly a dozen times in this forum.
 
I got an MSRP $37,656 RWD 2009 IS250 (premium package, navigation, and 18" wheels) for $32,448 back at the end of March -- it's 4 months later, you should be able to get the same caliber deal, if not better. You need to negotiate on your selling price, not the monthly payments. But for comparison, your payments are $449 a month incl taxes plus $1600 down which makes your car $17315 over 3 years for a 10k a year lease. My car is $417.07 (after the now 9.75% CA taxes) plus $795.83 down (this was just first month and fees) for a total of $15393.28 over the life of my 3 year lease at 12k miles. So I'm paying almost $2000 less than you over 3 years (it'd be considerably more than $2000 less than you if I lived in a lower tax state) and I get 6000 miles more over that 3 years PLUS I have premium package, navigation, and 18" wheels on my car. You have A LOT of work to do before you come anywhere close to making a deal on that car -- again, you need to work on the SELLING price of the car, NOT focus on the payments. Use Edmund's TMV calculator to help you figure out where you should be.
