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! |

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. |

Replying to: jano2 (Oct 27, 2008 6:25 pm) 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. |

I just check the current incentives, it shows there is a $1000 cash to dealer on all ES 350. Shall I also factor in the 2%-3% holdback? How do I factor in the delivery fee of $825 and ad fee? any advise is greatly appreciated. |

Replying to: lexus14 (Oct 28, 2008 12:55 pm) Nada invoice: 36804 Advertising fee: 515 Freight: 425 (was 800 something and they said they will pay for half) Plus 1500 they said they will charge over invoice The total is 39244 + TTL The car comes with premium plus, navigation, HID lamp, rear seat airbag, full size spare, pwr rear sunshade, int park assist, wood & leather trim steering wheel, body-side moldings, all weather mats, accessory package...I checked all these out on nada.com and it does come to 36804. I guess if I don't care about the color combination it will be easier. The one I want is not available but only in the NE regions (as I was told). He said there is only one availalbe even though there are 15 coming in to port but the freight from there would be even higher. Any ideas? Any comment is welcome...I really need some help! I am not very good at negotiations... |
