Don't know if anyone is following this thread anymore... We were #3 on our dealer's waitlist for the GS450h. One came late April, 2nd came late May...and not a word since. Does anyone have any insight at all on the complete lack of supply? I thought we'd at least get it before the September 30th Tax Credit deadline, but not looking so good!

Replying to: ptpro3 (Aug 27, 2006 9:38 pm) The limited supply was expected. Checking AutoTrader.com there are very few new ones around the USA. There are somewhat more with low mileage. If you've kept track of the price of nickel, used in the batteries, this car is costly to produce. I got the first one at my dealer and now have 2300 miles on it. There is a display which, if not reset, gives you the average fuel mileage since inception. Mine stands at 27.7 mpg. Given the performance, it's an excellent figure

Replying to: ptpro3 (Aug 27, 2006 9:38 pm) I was also #3 on my dealer's reservation list, with deposit in place since May. I took delivery of my vehicle last Thursday (black on black). I know my dealer had 7 waiting when my car came in early August. As far as I know this is a very limited production vehicle by intent and will remain so at this time.   Unfortunately, I am gone for the summer and won't see the car for a couple of weeks. Once I do get a chance to drive it I will post the experience in this discussion forum.

#23 of 68 What is the current lease offer? by dulnev Jan 13, 2007 (1:58 pm)
I'm about to lease a 450h and I know there is a special lease rate in effect until April 2, 2007. But the Lexus web site only mentions that there is a special offer, without providing any details. The dealer I'm leasing from says the special money factor is 0.00255, which translates into 6% APR, as opposed to the normal rate of 0.0028, which translates to 6.7%. The 6% rate does not appear to be special at all! Does anyone have any information on the actual offer?   By the way, I'm getting a fantastic price on a demo vehicle with 500 miles on it. The MSRP is $60,200 and I'm getting it for below invoice: $53,000. Replies to this message: kyfdx (Jan 13, 2007 7:47 pm)

#25 of 68 Excellent Car all round.. poor usablity on the Glass Dash by celica1977 Jan 17, 2007 (4:53 pm)
I have the car now since Christmas (2007 BLK / BLK) paid $60K.Fully loaded, Run Flat, Mark L. Sound, Nav, the works. I also have a GS400 for my wife. We gave up the 1995 LS400 for this car. Now that I have over 2000 miles on it (Holiday Road trip and plenty city) here is my report card: Hybrid Tech A+++ - Works great - Seamless at any speed Looks: A++++ - Performance: A++ - Faaaaast is an understatment Usablity of Glass Dash: D to C- : Useless Voice input, poor help (no list of what to say on screen, manual does not even list everything?? I have seen it displayed but not listed..beleive me I have looked, lock out of features on most items, song list of CD's (Only can play MP3 CD's (255 song limit) NO DVD MP3 even though it is a DVD changer.) Radio list remains at speed (why is this so different than a CD list I have no idea.   If there was a feature that is not worth the money it is glass dash with Nav. You can buy a NUVI for $400 that you can use when you need it. My Sister has a 2007 Acura MDX and they have it right when it comes to the Glass Dash. You can use the features as expected. Lexus (Toyota) has take conservative to a new level. I am VERY dissapointed with the usablity of the cabin features. I hope there is a software update coming soon or I will be an unhappy customer in the long run. I hope they take some lesson from Acura on this.   As long as you just want to drive the car and know where you are going and know what you want to listen to on the 300W $2000 sound system before you start driving then this car is perfect for you. Until that software update arrives. The cabin usablity now matches the trunk.. short changed...   LC - Boca Raton
#26 of 68 2007 GS450h demo with 3K miles: what discount should I expect by argelius Feb 24, 2007 (8:02 am)
I'm looking at a 2007 GS450h demo model with 3000 miles. Can anyone give me an idea as to what sort of discount I should expect to receive?   Just hate the price negotiation game...

Replying to: argelius (Feb 24, 2007 8:02 am) I purchased a GS 450h from Rallye Lexus in Glen Cove, New York a month ago. It was a "manager's demo" car with only 495 miles on it. The MSRP was $60,170 and I got the car for $53,000, which is about $300 below factory invoice. As far as I know, they had more GS 450h that they were willing to sell for around the same amount.   However, in my area (Washington DC area) dealerships do not discount 450h more than just a $1,000-$2,000 and have no more than one or two in stock.
