Just wait if you can, they're the ones who may lose not you. You're the one who is going to pay a lot of $$ but if they don't call you then you may shop some where else..
What was the MSRP of the car that you offering $38.5k?

MSRP $44,511, which includes all options & destination of $875...I multiplied this number by 13% profit margin which=$5786, and I multiplied base model price of $34,320 x 2% for holdback=$686...invoice price about $38,100---I think...is this right?

Check out Lexus official web-site, you will find the followings:
1. Base = $ 34,470
2. Dest. chg.= $ 875
Then the options, there are 4 options
Option 1=2365 and it's Premium plus
Option 2=3390 and it's Premium plus with additional options
Option 3=6240 and it's Voice-activated, NAV with back-up camera, etc...
 
Then there is what is called Pebble Beach Edition and cost about $7350
 
I think yours is option #3 what will come to MSRP $34,470+875+6240=41,585
88 to 90% of this figure would come to $36,595-37,427
 
If you can obtain the invoice then offer them $500 above the invoice #
I haven't bought lexus yet still shopping...
 
Good luck

ok, I checked that out and added $1995 for chrome wheels + $695 satellite radio, which comes to $44,275 and 88% of that is $38,962....so I low-balled the guy ($38,500), I guess, but not by too terribly much!! lol! Wonder if he'll call me back?
 
thnx for the help!

It seems that you're doing your homework!
For some reason I thought the satellite radio and chrome wheels were included in these options.
I still (and this just me without much buying experience) think the $ number you gave was adequate. You may just pick the phone and talk with the internet sale directors (for all 3 dealers in your area), you might also check others out of your area.
Have you ever gotten the invoices from the dealers and was there much difference in the one provided by edmunds?
 
Good luck
