Wow that is a great price... Was that at a dealership in Texas? If so which one?
Thanks for the reply

Really great price. When i was there the last week in December they had 3-4 in Mica left for 2008. I think it is a harder color to sell becuase that was the only color they had. Color not bad but not my first choice either. Money is great, if you like color then go for it!

Is this car a Pebble Beach Edition? I was looking at Sewell and they have the Pebble with a MSRP of $43705, but I have him down to $36900 + TTL. It is a 08 in Truffle Mica. I think the Pebble is the only one with that color. Great car. I am going to Grapevine to check them out tommorow.

This was in the Bay Area, California. I think that $36K is a good price for the Pebble Beach.

Where are the 08 ESs in the Bay Area? by scoutandatty

other than calling each Lexus dealer, is there another way to determine inventory of 08 ESs?
 
I was quoted $36K for a Levinson ($34K for just Nav) a few weeks ago, and expect that the recent $4K Lexus is contributing to dealers to move the 08 ESs will make dealers more aggressive.
 
Just need to know who has the inventory, and what they have.....
 
thanks for any suggestions.

I would suggest looking at their websites. Oakland was the one that offered me the $34K deal, Santa Rosa offered the $35K in January for an 09. Santa Rosa had a Pebble Beach edition for 08 and the Lexus in Redwood City (Putnam) had an 08 with Mark Levinson but I didn't want to spend an extra $2K - $3K for these features since they don't appeal to me.
Check out their website for Team Members's phone numbers so you can call them directly when you find the car you want.

AMEN on any site that would carry current inventorys on '08's.
Used one for Corvette and found what I wanted.
My problem:
Currently have an '05 ES which is my wifes car and she loves it. She is gonzo over the Royal Ruby Red color and does not like the '09 Red. Understand, if she could get an '09 for less than a Ruby Red '08, she would jump at the '08.
Would love to be able to search a site that carried '08 inventories.
Two of my last three Vettes were a fly out/drive back and would not mind doing the same for an '08 ES....in the right color you understand.

Hello. Yes that is the 2008 pebble beach edition in truffle mica. If you look on the lexus website the truffle mica is listed as a special order color for 2009. I however did not ask how much the 2009's are being sold for. Because there has been a $1000 price drop off of MSRP for 2009. I was not really interested in the pebble beach until he told me the price. The salemans initials are KC. But he will not be in tomorrow(Tuesday) he just sent me an e-mail.. I wonder what kind of deal they would make if we both bought one? I believe they have 4 of them left.

I have been looking for another reference to the $4K that Lexus is contributing and can't find anything. I want to have some facts to back me up, if I ask the dealer about it. Thanks!
 
Currently on the table $33,300 + TTL & admin fees of 185.
ES 350 200 smoky granite
Premium pkg
rear side airbags
heated seats
mats
probably a few other minor things, but I can't remember for the life of me
MSRP 38K
I think they have some room, they said they were already using a Customer Loyalty Cert value of $1000.
Thanks again. I love this car and I want it bad, I hate negotiating, but hate feeling stupid worse. Ha ha.

Lexpaul,
 
This is a terrific post. Very helpful. I am also in the ATL area trying to work a deal on a Level 3 2009 ES350. I want to the deal as a clean purchase - no financing or leasing.
 
I am going to try to match the 37.1 you paid. I do have a question though about the price structures of the various dealers. It seems they always try to add other charges onto the price - delivery charge, paperwork charge, dealer fee, etc. Do you have info on what charges I should pay other than the 37.1 price that you negotiated?
 
cheers,
prema1
