Importing Car Into Canada by pschiffe

I'm not sure about the wisdom of importing a car that is built in Canada back into that country! Since the loonie is now worth more than the dollar, it could possibly be advantageous. To answer your question, I've purchased two Lexus RXs from Dorschel Lexus in Rochester, NY, very satisfactory transactions both. Contact me if you'd like the name of my salesperson. And yes; I'm minutes away from another Lexus store in Amherst, NY that unfortunately has a very cavalier attitude in their sales department.

Does anyone know what type of deals Lexus has for it's December to Remember promotion? Trying to decide if it's worth the wait until year end to get a better deal on a '08 RX350.
 
Thanks.

How do I find Invoice with Options by daisy214

Hi-- I am new to this board and to car buying. This is my first purchase. I've noticed that many of you have listed an invoice price that includes the options. Where do I go to find this information?
 
Thanks in advance for any help.

You can find invoice prices for the 2007 RX350 with options right here on Edmunds.com. Click on the "Edmunds.com" link in the upper right hand section of this page. Then, under "New Cars" click on "SUV" -> $35K-$45k -> scroll over to page 5 to find Lexus or whatever model you are interested in.
 
I don't think it lists the invoices prices for the 2008 options yet but they should be exactly the same as the 2007.

Thank you. I followed the link and tried to price with options but on both the 2007 and 2008 RX 350 it lists N/A on the invoice column for options. On the TMV column it lists a price higher than MSRP, which is certainly not accurate in the current market.
 
Here is the car description and price quote that I have received. If anyone has any feedback or comments, I would greatly appreciate it.
 
2008 Lexus RX 350 FWD
Accessory Codes are: FV HH NV PT TO C1 (cargo mat) and WL
In plain english the options are: nav system, heated front seats w/ rain sensing wipers, Liquid graphite finsih 18 inch wheets, towing prep package, wheel locks, cargo mats, and premium plus package (leather, power tilt wheel w/ memory, roof rack, moonroof, HID headlamps w/ AFS, illuminated entry)
 
The offer from the dealership lists price at 44,481 and then says the sales price will be 41,200.00
 
Is this a good offer? Is it at market?

Hmm, I followed the links and was able to price the 2007 options. The only one of your options that was N/A was the Premium Plus Package (PT). However, you can calculate that by taking the Premium Package (PM) and adding the HID lights(HL).
 
When I run your cars config, I get the following:
 
MSRP $44,195
Invoice: $38,917
TMV: $40,204 (without any regional adjustment or color adjustment)

Here's what I've found for invoice price on the codes you've listed:
 
FV - Invoice - $484; MSRP - $605
HH - Invoice - $532; MSRP - $665
NV - Invoice - $2225; MSRP - $2650
PT - Invoice - $1854; MSRP - $2060
TO - Invoice - $126; MSRP - $160
C1 - Invoice - $55; MSRP - $92
WL - Invoice - $41; MSRP - $69
 
Total Invoice - $5317; MSRP - $6301
These numbers can be found on http://consumerguideauto.howstuffworks.com/2008-lexus-rx-5.htm By the way, they are the same numbers that consumer reports gives when you buy their report in their new car price service. Hope this helps!

Pete, would you mind sending me name and email address of your salesperson. I am interested in importing Lexus ES 350 to Canada if this is possible. Also wondering if I need to pay NY State tax or would it instead be advisable for me to purchase from a state with no tax such as NH.
 
Thanks
 
Mike

Mike, your email is listed as private in your profile! Sales tax is levied based upon where the vehicle will be registered not where it is purchased, don't know how this applies to Canada.
