Interesting on the HID's - I noticed that the Pebble that we drove did not have them either -- They would be a MUST on my next purchase for sure.
What Color did you buy?? And do you have Wood StearingWheel?
Can you shoot me the person you delt with at Magg's and Stevens- would - Would be nice to have names especially at Mag's. (xiermail AT gmail DOT com)
LS VS ES - Ha - problem is that we can afford it - really that is the real issue that usually prevents me from making the sound buying decision... I am pretty sure the LS is not TWICE as good as the LS - heck I could get 2 loaded ES's for the price of the LS we are looking at. Wife loves the ES -so I should probably just let her get what she LOVES - but I'm still trying to convince her that her husband does not fit as well in the ES  .

I bought the ES in smoky granite mica exterior with gray interior. It does have wood steering wheel. I've sent you an email with the name of the person and Magnussens and Stevens Creek.
True...whatever makes the wife happy...you're lucky to have a wife who loves something that's actually cheaper .

Nice - Thanks! --
Your car VS Pebble Beach? Does the Pebble have anything that your car does not have on it? The Pebble we drove was 42 I think - and trying to figure out what is missing - other than the HID's and Parking Assist.
Thx.

That's a great deal. Don't know if they will go that low in ATL, but I'm going to try to get close to that figure. Question? Did you purchase a new 08 no miles or one with some miles on it? Thanks

In Dec, you can get the same car for approx $36,000 but a 2009 model. You can get this kind of aggressive pricing in CA. Nightowl got a good deal and it is approx $1,500 less than factory invoice and may be $2,000 than dealer invoice as they add all kinds of fees, couple of them might be ad fee and prep fee. For 2009, the invoice is approx $900 less than 2008 model so I think it is better to pay $500 more for newer model but all depends on the dealer location and the time to negotiate.

No its not a pebble beach edition. I'm not sure what the pebble beach edition comes with. The things missing from my car that I can think of are panoramic roof and Mark Levinson audio. But I didn't want either of them...didn't seem worth the extra price.

It had 147 miles on it. The dealer told me they drove it from Santa Rosa to Fremont which is about 90 miles. Trucking it costs them $200 which is more expensive than just driving it down. He may be telling the truth since the MSRP sticker showed a Santa Rosa dealer. Either way I didn't care too much since he was the only one who had the exact configuration I was looking for with matching exterior and interior color.

So what is the best price that anyone has gone on the 2009 with Nav so far?
anyone got lucky with dealers in Seattle?
I am going for 34K for 08 if its with Nav.. lets see what happens. I think the market is slow thus good time to get the benefit.

Don't think they will go that low in Atlanta. My best price so far on an '08 with Nav is $37,998 but that included Sat radio and all weather floor mats. That does not include TTL. I am going to wait until closer to the end of the month to see if I can do better!

I purchased an '08 premium plus package with Navi and XM for $36,500 (excluding TTL) at the Nalley Lexus in Roswell last July. I waited until the 30th to start calling dealerships. Since the last day of the month was not a weekend I felt I had more bargaining power.
