I helped my dad get a new 2008 ES350 today. We were shopping for a 07 model but none of the local dealers had the color combination we wanted. So we dealed on an 2008 model which had just arrived few days ago at the dealer. MSRP was $42,421 and we got for $37.500(at invoice price). I'm pretty happy with deal since it's an 08 model. Total drive off $950 with monthly payments of $590 (includes tax) for 36mo/10K.

I think you should've bargined better or continued to look around until you started to feel what was out there before going back to buy. One thing though, since the 08s are just coming out time will only tell if you truly did get the right price.

Just purchased a pre-owned '07 ES350 in DFW area. Paid $32,000 +TTL. Has 15,448 miles on it. Car Fax shows it was lease w/ no issues. No trade in. Financing was from bank (tho they offered me 6.19%). Car details: Black Saphire w/cashmere leather/grey/wood interior. Has everything (incl. moonroof, pinstriping, window tint, bluetooth, rain sensors, etc.) BUT, doesn't have navigation, full spare or rear spoiler. Bought at Honda Higgens (saw ad for $32,900). Went to Lexus in Grapevine first - they hav several prev. leased in multiple colors - mileage from 20K- 35K all w/ slight defects (chipped windshileds, etc). Same features. They're starting point on all is $35.9K. Told sales rep about Honda's offer - he said couldn't go lower than $35.4K - that was certified (always more expensive), tho mine comes w/ an extra extended warranty covering everything imaginable. Honda folks were great - but not familiar w/ features on Lexus - didn't know what features or package incl. Fortunately, the Lexus Dealers had explained most of them to me. Great drive back home to Houston today w/ it.

As several others have reported here, I had an excellent experience purchasing a 2007 ES350 from Tony at Park Place Plano in DFW. I got the premium package below for $34,475. I live in Memphis and flew to Dallas and drove the car home. Mr. Arthur picked me up at the airport and the whole deal was smooth and pleasant. I had wired the funds to Lexus so everthing went quick. I got the Smoky Granite with the black interior and it looks great. Thanks to everyone on this site, the information I received here helped the process. I did contact two other dealers, but could not get straight answers from them. Tony was upfront all the way. Package I – “Premium” - Premium leather trim interior with real wood accents - Heated and Ventilated front seats - Driver memory: Seat, Steering Wheel, Outside Mirrors - Power Tilt and Telescoping Steering Wheel - Bluetooth Compatibility - 6 Disc, Single feed in dash CD player in the console - Rain-sensing Wipers - Driver Seat Extender - Carpet Cargo Mat - Wheel Locks - Power Rear Sun Shade - Body Side Moldings - Smart Key Regards, Scott in MEM

Replying to: scottinmem (Sep 04, 2007 7:38 am) I have a question about your body side moldings. Did the dealership have them in stock? I was supposed to get the moldings, but there was a problem with them and Lexus was fixing the problem so they were back ordered. TA said I get get an IOU, but since I don't live in the DFW area I declined and we took them off the contract price. I read somewhere else the body moldings should be back in stock around 9/1.
