I have negotiated prices by email: 2008 without navigation about 37,000 out the door (~14k miles) 2008 with navigation about 38,500 out the door (~11k miles) 2009 without navigation about 39,500 out the door Any thoughts on whether navigation or 2009 are worth the extra dollars? They are otherwise identical. Much appreciated! |

I just bought a RX350 AWD 2009 with Nav, premium package and etc. Base: $3,9100.00 + option: $6,221.00 Destination: $765.00 Total: $46086.00 (sticker price) Paid: $40,800.00 (including the destination) Cash, no finance, no trade-in The dealer told me the one with a base price $38,900 is one sitting in the lot for about 3 months and the one I got is the one just shipped in fresh. I am not sure this is true. I sent out the request for the quotation (I think on June 23) to 5 different dealers through all car-related web-sites and negotiated the price by phone and e-mail. I cut the price down and made the total price $40,800.00 with 2 dealers. My local dealer made me a firm offer price (out the door) ~$43,400.00 so, I walked and drove about 50 mins to a different dealer. After tax (Delaware) and all other fees, I paid $42,261 (out the door). I don't like haggling much and the offer price did not seem to change much from dealer to dealer at some point, so I purchased mine on June 27 Friday. The very next day (Jun 28, sat) morning, one dealer made me an offer of $37,700.00. Even $3,000 cheaper than what I paid! (but, 2 hour driving distance from my place and they don't have the color I like.) Conclusion: I am not sure I paid a fair price for my vehicle but, I got the colors (ext/int) I like with over $5,000 off the sticker. I have no idea what the actual dealer invoice price is though. And as many people point out, at the end of each month, quarter, especially close to the end of June, it seems you can get a better deal.

I bought a 2008 RX350 without navigation for 36,600 out the door in the DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia area. Other options included a 2008 with navigation (just over 40,000 out the door at 2 dealers) and 2009 with navigation for 43,300 out the door. Based on the prior email, maybe should have waited one more day for the 2009 with navigation ... but it is still better than I was hoping when I first started looking ... and the car is simply fantastic. Good luck to anyone making a deal today. This forum was very helpful to me.

I have been reading all the posts for the past day or so in this forum, but I must admit I am still a bit confused. I am looking to buy on 08 or 09 RX350 AWD with the premium package + heated seats in the next day or so. However, I am still unclear what type of incentives are out there for dealers and how much over/under invoice I should be trying to negotiate for either an 08 or an 09. If anyone could help me out, I would truly appreciate it. Also, if anyone has found a good dealer in the OH/KY/IN/PA area, I would also be very appreciative of any recos. Many thanks.

Replying to: mjtaysdad (Jun 29, 2008 5:00 am) I just purchased a new 2008 rx350 2wd. I negotiated down to $1028 under invoice. I purchased my car in S. Florida. The dealership had 3 2008's left with about the same options, including mine. I was at the dealership for 3 hours negotiating, but finally got a number that was good for me. I got the following options - Nav w/ Mark Levinson luxury value package, Rear entertainment(I didn't want this, but the car already had it and I used it as a bargaining tool), Graphite Finish Wheels, Heated seats w/ rain sensing wipers, Towing prep, cargo mat, and wheel locks. I basically let them know that I would take an 08 for the right price. I stated that the 09's have been out for a while and the new redesign was coming next year, so I would take an 08 for the right price. After being patient and saying no to several prices they gave me, I worked with the Finance Manager to get the monthly payment to where I was comfortable with it. And now I am a happy new owner of an rx350. Good luck in your search. I wanted to contribute after reading the posts on here which helped me make my purchase.
