Try the Lexus dealer in Nashville, TN. About a 4 hour drive from Asheville and they are great to deal with. The end of July I got a 350 with Premium plus and a load of extras,i.e. blue tooth, full size spare, HID lamps, etc for $35K and $199 doc fee. The prices have gone down since then. Get ahold of the internet manager and tell him what you are willing to pay and he will probable take it. You might wait until the end of the month. They have quotas and they are not making them. Try the Brentwood dealer. Good luck.

Hello,
 
That doc fee of $599.00 is high. Hennessy Lexus has the lowest doc fee of $389.00 in ATL area, and after them its Lexus of South of Atlanta at $498.00. I was at Nalley last week 10/4, checking out some their 350's. They are corporate owned so you're going to pay a little more for everything. Check out Hennessy Lexus or Lexus of South ATL. Lexus of South is very competitive. Happy Shopping

Hi, I just brought a $750 gift certificate for Lexus 2008/2009 coupon from ebay. The best thing is that I can save $750 after all that after all negotiations. I paid almost 200 dollars for this coupon!! Anyway, I will let you guys know how it goes with my price for the IS250. Wish me best of luck.

Thanks...I will check out the Brentwood dealer and see what the internet rep can come up with. They all have the quotas to meet and I figure with the market the way it is, at the end of the month, the hoods will be raised and balloons in the parking lot....is yours a 2008 or 2007?

2009 ES350 $1500 over Invoice - Good Deal? by lexusbunny

I was given a quote for the 2009 ES350 for $1500 over invoice. I am thinking it's not that bad a deal considered this is 2009 and I don't think a lot of dealers want to bargain. I will have to pay freight for it to be shipped to the dealer as the color combination I want is not so available, but he said he is going to work on it with the dealer on the other side to see if there is anything he can do.
 
Any thoughts? Thanks!

Hmmm...I would be suspicious of the freight charge. Everything might be legit, but I would try to find out more information. Where is the dealer that has the car? What is the shipping charge? Can you pick it up yourself and save the shipping fee?

2007 ES350 w/ 17,500 miles - Great Price? by toddan

I am negotiating on a Certified Pre Owned 2007 ES350 that was leased for 14 months (July 2007).
 
It has Premium Plus package as well as the following options: Nav, full size spare, HID w/ AFS, Rear Air Bags, Power sunshade, Parking assist, Wood & Leather wheel, Bluetooth, etc.
 
I have the original invoice which was $41,929 with destination charge. Best I figure, a 2008 similarly equipped has an invoice of $37,214. We have agreed to $31,490 +TTL and a $50 doc fee.
 
Can anyone comment if this is a great deal? Seems like it.

Oh I know what the fright charge is - it would be $800. The sales person said he is going to work on it and see if that can be reduced or go away (if he worked out some kind of deal with that dealer). Will see.
 
I am in Houston, the available car is in northeast region (he didn't mention state, of course), and the sales I talked to is in Dallas. I can pick it up from Dallas which is a 4 hour drive but they still have to ship the car down to Dallas first which is where the freight cost comes from. He said he can deliver it to me in Houston and I don't think he is charging me for that (didn't ask though...)
 
*IF* the freight cost worked out and I am only paying $1500 over invoice for it, will that be a good deal? I have been on here reading about ES since last year and some people managed to pay invoice or below. At this point I would think paying invoice for the 2009 is pretty difficult.
 
There is a $515 difference on the invoice price he quoted me and the number I got from nada.com. I know it is not destination charge since it is calculated already and is $825. Any idea what it is?
 
Thank you for all your help!! I really hope this works out.
