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.

I think they will go that low in ATL, in fact I got an offer from Lexus of South ATL for 37k, premium plus w/nav and that was earlier this year, but I wasn't ready to buy. If you stick to your 'guns' I believe you can do it, but you must come well prepared, have your loan already approved and focus on OTD price w/o any trade-ins. I think I'm going to wait for the 09's to come out, I think Lexus has quietly fixed some the problems that have been posted here. I have spoken to all the Lexus dealers in ATL and by far Lexus of South ATL has the best deal going. Good luck in your purchase. Lexus is the best. Can't wait to slip into my black/black beauty.

Interesting. This offer of 37,998 is from Nalley in Smyrna. I walked and they have called several times to see if I would reconsider, however, they have not lowered their price at all. I may go look at the new TL if that keeps up.

My two cents on the ES350 2008
by jbradford3

Best price (w/o TTL) to start your bid for Sept 2008:
ES350 w/o Nav: $31,700 and go up to $900 max
ES350 w/Nav : $35,100 and go up to $750 max
ES350 w/ultra : $37,300 and go up to $500 max
Beware. They will add all kinds of fees to pad the TTL price above. I checked my local dealers and they have a lot of these ES350 w/Nav or w/o Nav so you might get them for less than the price above if you wait until the end of each month. If they want the ES350 w/o Nav for $32,600 tell them to slap in the free tint or spoiler... 
Email all your local dealers and see if they can come near the price above.
