Yes - the price included delivery to my door, and the delivery person they use worked as a sales consultant for something like 15 yrs prior to retiring/doing delivery for them (knows a lot about the cars)
 
Since it was quoted as a delivered deal I don't know how delivery to my home worked into the overall $38.2 price. I had an idea in my head of what I wanted to pay vs my trade value and their overall offer was fine with me...especially since it was exactly what I was looking for in terms of colors and specs.
 
Reminder on the boards about not mentioning salespeople so I won't go into that but I suspect the integrity of the salesperson I worked with reflects that of the dealership so check out Lexus of Omaha if it's a viable option location-wise for you. I got none of the song and dance from them that I got from some of the others I talked to.

Check McGrath Lexus in Westmont, IL. I've been working with a sales guy there. They are offering $8800-9200 off MSRP depending on model (with or without NAV). It's the best deal that I've found so far in the Midwest.

CarsDirect.com is offering reasonably good prices as well on the 2009 RX350s -- check out this link as an example ($30.5K in a SoCal zip code, for a base FWD model).

Looking for '09 RX350 FWD w/ Nav/ML Package and Rear Ent. System. Edmund's TMV cost is $39,300. Are people experiencing dealerships reducing another $5K off of the TMV price? Internet dealer said he could install rear DVD system w/ monitors on headrests for $1200.00. Is that a good price?

Is this the right time to buy? by MrChicago

Hi, I was hoping to get some opinions on the timing of a new car purchase. I'm looking at the RX350 AWD, after talking to some dealers in the Chicago area, I've been offered 5K below invoice. This applies to any model/options, they are taking 5K off the invoice price. I need to get a new car before August, so I'm wondering if I should take this deal or if I will see better offers after the new 2010 models come out. Right now, I don't think I'll be able to get any special financing rates on top of the 5K below invoice. However, I'm not sure that there will be any deals in the future that combine a low rate and cash back. The 5K below invoice seems attractive, but are other people getting better deals? Any idea how the inventory levels are at the dealers - if I keep waiting, will they move out all the inventory before August and only have the 2010s around at full price? Also, given the current deals out there, is anyone seeing other cars (such as the Acura MDX) that are a better deal right now?
 
Thanks in advance for your help

$5k below invoice is a great deal compared to what I am seeing here in the SE. The downside is the money factor if you plan to lease is not the best. I know that Acura is no where near the $5k below invoice that your Lexus dealer is giving you so depending on where you want or need to be on your lexus payment, I'd go with the Lexus rount.
 
I need to get a car by May but unfortunately cannot find a great deal like you. Can you tell me the name of your dealership in Chicago? I may call up to see if they will ship. Thanks.

Hi MrChicago,
I think this is the best time for you to buy since I never seen Lexus offers 5K to dealers. I bought mine 09 RX350 FWD without Nav in SoCal (LA and OC counties) back in late Dec 08 with only $2.5 cash back to dealers and I got about $3K under the invoice but I had 0.9 % financing. and I thought I had a very good deal since there are 14 Lexus Dealers in SoCal area and the inventory running low when I bought on 12/28/08 (about more than 20 Rx350 left in my dealer). In Mar, with 2010 RX350, Lexus will sell it close to sticker price, since Toyota Venza right now they are selling at full price here in SoCal. Any way this is just my opinion. Good luck

Looking to buy before the end of the month by jkny516

5K below Invoice?? Do you think they will ship to New York? I've been trying to get quotes on this car from various NY dealers but I am not getting anywhere near the same prices I'm seeing online. If I could get it even 3K below invoice I would buy asap. The supply in the North East is just more limited from what I understand. Which totally sucks.
 
I was wondering if anyone had experiences of buying a car in New Jersey when living in New York. Pros and Cons? I've heard some service horror stories when bringing a car in for service at a dealer you did not buy the car from. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
