RX 350 Purchased on 1/24 in Chicago by MrChicago

This is a follow up to some previous posts. I ended up buying an AWD RX350 this weekend with the following: Premium Package, Heated Seats w/ Rain Sensing Wipers, Towing Prep, Cargo Mat, Wheel Locks. After researching on various websites, I was getting different invoice prices from several different sources ranging from $38,100 to $37,600. I think this was due to several factors including some region-specific charges and differing dealer holdbacks (addressed in some previous posts). MSRP was $42,171. I was able to get a price of $32,850 + TTL. At the low end of the invoice range that I found, assuming I could have gotten 5K off that price, I suppose I could have done as well as $32,600, but I think I did ok. I also got the exact color combination that I was looking for, which I highly value. Any thoughts from people on this forum?
 
For others that are looking, I found that inventory for models without NAV was very lean. I had a choice of 4 models with the equipment I wanted, if I wanted NAV, I had a bigger selection. I have used the Lexus NAV system and wasn't too impressed- I'd rather save the $ and get a better GPS system like a Garmin for $500. For me to upgrade to the next level in their inventory, I was quoted a $4,000 increase (which would have included NAV, Premium Plus, 18" wheels). Cost differential wasn't worth it to me, although the 18" wheels do look nice. Sounds like some people in CA are getting great deals though, roughly a $3,000 increase for the upgrades listed above.

Can you email me with the dealership and contact info? I'm assuming that this was purchased in the Chicago area.
 
Thanks,

Sorry...I left my email off the last post. It's ou90750yahoo.com. I'm also looking for an '09 Lexus RX350 AWD. Sounds like you got a decent deal. Congrats.

32k for the low end sounds like a pretty nice deal. NY/NJ has a price lock. They are not going much lower than 34K. Almost a 2 grand difference from what I'm seeing here. I wonder if this could be considered price fixing? Why is it so much cheaper in Cali and in IL than here? Pretty frustrating.

You can get a quality custom fit after market Class II trailer hitch for around $200 and they are easy to install but the wiring harness may be a problem. Perhaps Lexus offers the harness separately as a service part.

I got one... $36504 for the AWD With Nav. He wanted 37504 and initially i agreed. I was supposed to go to his office this am but i called him and told him I'm not buying from him anymore as i was quoted 36100 by another dealer (who is 300 miles away from me and it was a real quote). I told him to give me a call if he has another offer. He called me and gave me 1000 off. Now i'm happy with this price.Thank you for the help... The problem now is with the finance rate

Hi Anyone has luck in the tri-state area for a deal that is about 10K off MSRP? I tried couple dealers and they only quoted me 36k.
 
Thanks

Lexus financing? by daddy

Is Lexus offering any special financing before the promotion ends on Feb 2? I am guessing they will offer it after Feb 2. If so, can we lock in the price now and double-dip for the special financing on Feb 3?
