Santa Monica was willing to deal. At least that's the impression I got. But I got the best deal from Glendale. Good luck.

#6 of 2855 UL package deals in DC/MD/VA? by vluu

May 29, 2006 (6:27 am)

I was first thinking about getting the Premium Plus w/ Nav, but the more and more I see the UL Package. I'm leaning that way. It has everything I'm really wanting. Can anyone in the DC/MD/VA who has bought an ES 350 UL Package... tell me your experiences?
 
thanks

I am looking to purchased the premuim plus version of the es350 at MSRP 37,424 in CT area. I got a quote from the best customer service dealership rank by lexus 3 years in a row. They quoted me for straight MSRP no discount.

Get a copy of Saturday edition of New York Times. Go to Auto section, look thru ads until you see Lexus ads in small print.Call phone # and see the difference in price. Prestige Lexus Ramsey N.J.#1 Lexus dealer on East Coast.Make your deal, take bus to Ramsey. Good Luck. If you go to their website you can see their inventory.

#9 of 2855 Pulled the trigger on Ul with Mark Levinson by kumar2

Folks..just bought the ES 350 with Ultra Lux with Mark Levinson in SIlver with Grey Interiors from Coliseum Lexus in Oakland (SF Bay Area).
Paid 1000 over invoice (39300 Approx + Tax and reg). Excellent service from the dealer with a pleasant experience.
Will add post later about experiences with the car.

#10 of 2855 I also got the UL with Mark Levinson, and all the features by mattvds

I got the black with black interior. My car also had dealer installed $3000 crome rims. I got $3000 knocked off so I paid MSRP... but i still think its a decent deal cause i got free rims.
 
I also added on the "black kit".. which cost 600 bux or so... In retrospect i probably shouldn't of paid that much for it.. all well.
 
I'm a first time buyer, so i'm not very good at haggling for deals.. but my dealer was very nice and it was a pleasent buying experience. Now if i can only get the wind issue fixed....

Steer clear of Lindsay. They're unwilling to negotiate on any version of the ES 350 that has premium packages of any kind, at least that was my experinece. My sales rep claimed that they are selling the ES 350 at MSRP...period. He did finally budge but only after upping the initial price by $700 to add the rear collision avoidance and a full-sized spare (options I had no interst in) and then offering a $750 discount. So at that point, I was only $50 ahead of where I started and I went in well informed about the actual invoice for the car and all options. Good luck and let us know if you are successful. I'm about to try Pohanka.

If you are close to the Massachusetts border, you may want to try Lexus of Norwood--I just picked up my 2007 ES 350 Lexus and they were definitely interested in dealing--They gave me well above blue book on my trade-in and I had gotten prices from 2 other dealers. This is my 5th Lexus and performance-wise it is far above all the others.

Thanks for the info. I actually test drove the ES350 at Lindsay. I have heard off of other post...people getting getting up to $2,300 off, but who knows if this is really reality?? Seems that UL is still in low inventory for all dealers. I tend to see more of the Premium Plus w/ Nav and Premium Package. Lindsay seems to have the largest inventory. I still have not ruled out buying further out if I can't get a deal around here. I have heard of dealers doing a delivery drive to some customers. Let me how Pohnaka pans out?
