Friend of mine is looking for an ES350 with Ultra-Luxury Package with Additional Options. The MSRP is $44312.00 including dest. charge.
 
I contacted my Lexus dealer where I purchased my '07 RX350 from. They quoted it will be under $40K. Another quoted $41K. My friend went to another dealer. They quoted $38K. Any comments on the lowest ES350 price in Boston? Thanks!

I got the black interior which matches well with the wood and the dash.

Advice on Pricing in Atlanta (Prem. Plus Pkg., Nav) by financebuzz
May 30, 2007 (3:42 pm)

I just wanted to get some feedback on the prices I am getting quoted on a 07 ES 350 with Premium Plus and Navigation (List: 41,322). I have received the following quotes (this is Drive out w/ tax, title, tag, fees, dest.):
 
Nalley Lexus - Smyrna: $40072
Hennessey Lexus - Gwinnett: $40203
 
I had asked for $39,170 which was basically invoice and allowance for approx. $500 in fees. Is this a realistic goal? Are the quoted prices ok or should I be able to do better?
 
Unfortunately, I do have some time constraints. My truck was totaled last week and the insurance company is supposed to have my check for me tomorrow. Thus, I start paying for the rental on Friday and I do not want to do that for long!
 
Thanks for all's help!

Please don't include taxes in asking about prices - they vary too much from one locale to another. Please list what the car is costing you BEFORE sales tax and license, but include any dealer add-ons. Then and only then can the audience here help you with pricing.
 
My first reaction is that you're paying too much, but without any knowledge of GA taxes, who knows??

Thanks. In my county in Georgia the sales tax is 6% and because I do not have a trade, I have to pay that on the entire purchase price. Thus my offer was for basically invoice per KBB.com.
 
Given the above information on taxes and my conversation with the gentleman from Hennessey, they are offering to sell the vehicle for basically $1000 over invoice. I do not have my notes right in front of me, but I will plan to edit this post/post details once I have that.

How does this sound for Premium Plus Package? by rmcneice
May 31, 2007 (8:28 am)

I've begun contacting dealers in the area via the internet on a 2007 ES 350 with a Premium Plus package (that's the wood trim, bluetooth, heated & vented seats, etc.). So far I've used links from Costco, Capital One (Drive One) and directly from Edmunds to see what the discrepancies are for the same car from dealers on and around Long Island, NY.
 
The Costco dealership (no hassle pricing) says they cannot quote prices over the phone due to the relationship and agreement with Costco, but he did say he would give me an indication if he could do better if I called him with other prices. This dealership is not really close by, so it's my last stop.
 
The Capital One dealership (no hassle pricing) quoted me $34,615
 
The Edmunds dealer hasn't replied yet, and my close to home local dealer is waiting for me to get back to him.
 
How does this first quote stand up these days?
 
Thanks,
Bob
 
BTW - Edmunds doesn't show an invoice amount for this car anymore???

Robin-you are completely wrong about how to negotiate a better discount. You SHOULD make the dealer feel like it is very important to you that you purchase the vehicle from them. All money is green but someone who is local, is going to complete their service work at that dealer, and is going to be an advocate for the location by providing referals and postitive word of mouth always gets a bigger discount than someone who says, "I don't care who I buy this car from, I just go to whoever has the best price!" What's more important, price or value?
