Replying to: sunnfun (Aug 04, 2008 8:15 am) Welcome to the club! Both our wives have the better wheels while we both drive something in the pack. What color did you all get by the way? Here, we go Smoky Granite Mica with the Grey Interior (and the very same package that you all did as well, WORD FOR WORD). Here is a way to identify whether you have the sunshade or not. On the driver's side of the vehicle between the sterring wheel and the driver's side door, located just below the side air vent are 4 buttons. 1 is for the fuel filler door; 1 for the trunk to open; 1 for the Park Assist system; 1 is for Power Rear Sunshade. If you see these four buttons in the exact location I've identified, it is confirmed that you have it and the dealer will not need to aftermarket install one. Please take a look and be sure and let me know what you find out.

Replying to: sunnfun (Aug 04, 2008 8:15 am) I have a 2007 Hyundai Sonata Limited V6. This is a great car in itself. Make no mistake, it's no Lexus by any stretch but in its own, it's been an all around great car. Great Fuel economy for a V6 if I may say so. |

Replying to: sunsonshaan07 (Aug 04, 2008 9:20 am) My car is an 08 EXL 4Dr V6. I have posted my experience on the Honda board so no need to re-hash it here but it has not been good. My wife loves the ES 350 but it's not for me. The roof is to low. I do like the GS models though. If the sales person would "deal" a little more, I would consider pulling the trigger on one of those and trade mine off. |

Replying to: jano2 (Aug 03, 2008 12:32 pm) I paid 41450 (45225 MSRP) for the ultra luxury with ML and navigation. In addition they let me use a sales tax credit on my lease, saving me an additional $2600. I think with some more negotiations, I could have gotten the money factor down more, but I felt the sales tax credit more than offset the higher money factor. I worked the prices through 5 different dealers across the state over several weeks, and Northside gave me the best final deal. |

Replying to: kingharry_007 (Aug 03, 2008 12:14 pm) I believe it is against form policy to post the salesperson name... I purchased the vehicle from Lexus of Stevens Creek. I shopped around all dealerships: Oakland, Fremont, Pleasanton, Putnam, etc. All dealerships immediately quote under $1000 under their invoice price (note that the dealer accessories like the cargo mat, etc. are not listed at edmunds ... I believe the dealers leave a couple hundred dollar room this way). From there, you gotta negotiate. My final price was $1500 under dealer's quoted invoice. good luck, BJ |

I just bought a new 2008 Lexus ES350 from Lexus of Serramonte in Bay Area, California. It had Navigation, Premium Plus, Power Rear Sunshade, HID Headlamps, and Preferred Accessory Package. MSRP was $41,735. We payed $35,854, and got it for $39,000 out the door (OTD). I just want to know, did i get a good deal?? About the buying experience, it was pretty standard and quick as far as car buying goes, mostly because I negotiated 39K OTD on the phone. My suggestion is to find exactly the car you want, phone around to see what dealers have it, and start negotiating about $2000 under invoice, and see what they can do from there.

I noticed many of you are getting below invoice. I have a 08 ES350 quote out there now, sticker is 42,535 - invoice 37,790 - Dealer is offering $300 above invoice firm. This is in the chicagoland area. Anyone have any experience with a dealership willing to undercut this? Thanks!
