finally closed a deal after 3 weeks by drextremops

w000t... So excited that I finally got my ES350, in the color and package that I want. Just got a Smoky Granite Mica/Gray interior with the PP package, HID, Nav, Rear sunshade+air bags, full spare, IPA, PAP and the wood/leather steering. I got it at abt 3700 off MSRP which I think isn't that bad. Might be able to get a better deal but the salesguy wanted to really do this deal and he threw in Lo-jack at a substantial low price. Was considering getting the one with UL but decided to save up.

Congrats. Sounds like a fantastic deal. What state/dealership did you work with? Did you find the dealership thru the internet? Lexus is enjoying the high demand/low supply ratio right now...I'm really tempted to wait until Sept and see how prices are then.

Got it at a Southern CA dealer. Well, I went into the dealer at first to take a look at the IS but was drawn to the ES. Yup. You are correct abot the high demand/low supply ratio thing. Very few dealer was willing to go more than 2k below the MSRP. I am sure the price might be lower in Sept as the other manufacturers are rolling out their 2007 models. Supply might improve as well. I think it might have begun as the dealer that I bought from actually received more than 10 ES350s (3 of which is the color that I want). Other few dealers that I was in touch with expect deliveries within this few weeks as well.

I brought a ES 350 premium package w/ navigation (included parking assist option and full-spare tire) from Pohanka Lexus in Chantilly, VA for approx. $41,000. The internet sales man gave me $1400 off MSRP. This was a month ago, so you may be able to get a better deal now.
 
thanks for your information. I think this is the second person I know who got their ES350 from Pohanka. It's been around the $1200-$1500 off the MSRP. I'm hoping that if I wait until after September... prices will be around the $2000 off MSRP, if not... then I waited for nothing. Looking to buy the UL, but the way the demand and supply is... I may have to go with the PP w/ Nav. Can't afford to dish out for the UL. Was your service and experience good at Pohanka?

Sounds like a good deal to me. Do you mind sharing the name of the dealership? The best I have gotten so far in the Northern California is 2000 over invoice ($37,400) for a Premium plus with navigation, HID and power rear shades. They didn't have the colors I wanted. Is this a good price? Is this comparable to what you paid?

Hi. Sure. I won't mind. The dealer is Crown Lexus. They are in Ontario. Actually your price is pretty good. Are those the only options/package that came with the vehicle? If they could throw in a few others such as the preferred accessory package, rear airbags and full spare tire, it would be better. I paid more than you as I have parking assist and lo-jack as well.

I recently purchased my 350 from Lindsay. They did try to add for the full size but I showed them where it was already in the price (by the way it's a full size on the premium wheel). They thru in touch up paint, all weather mats (will use them in the winter months) and took $500 off the sticker. I don't think that's too bad considering it's a 2007 model that's been on the streets for less than two months. There were only two on the lot and it was the only one with the ultra package.

They were going to charge me an extra $1595 for chrome wheels that this car came with. I politely declined. I am waiting for the inventory to build up a little bit more. Right now it seems low.

I just picked up the ES350 w/ Premium Plus and Navigation (Smokey Granite). MSRP - 41,094, got $2,500 off MSRP. I bought it at Lexus of Wayzata. I thought it was a fair deal considering there are only 2 Lexus dealerships in the area - under common ownership.
 
I had a great buying experience until I met with financing. Rate quoted was terrible and when I asked about leasing, their "Lexus Standard" money factor was .00305. After about 15 minutes of arguing and letting him know that he was crazy, I left, went to the bank and financed the car.
 
Last problem - when I got it in the sunlight in front of the dealership, there was a small chip on the door. The dealer promised to fix and make it "unnoticeable". Time will tell.
 
Thanks to everyone who actively posts to the board.
