Replying to: mar1an1 (Mar 09, 2009 11:28 am) i guess i should go test drive the MDX. i've heard many good things, but acuras never really did anything for me. however, if it drives well, it maybe enough to convince me b/c I've already had my share of impulsive car shopping and i'm done - although i had lots of fun with those 2 impulsive buys. i test drove the volvo XC90 this weekend and was pleasantly surprised. i actually test drove it to confirm i should cross it off my list, but instead it's back on the list. also test drove the BMW X5 and was hoping i wouldn't like it soo much(i am biased towards bmw) and now that's definitely on the top of my list. can't beat that bmw-handling. but I can't see spending that much money on a new car so i may go used. i did cross the cayenne off my list. test drove a cayenne base although the one I drove might've had issues. i guess i was looking for anything to cross it off my list - the maintenance is too costly. i'm looking for a good quality vehicle at a very discounted price in this economy. a co-worker is also looking for a new subaru, but even subaru is not budging on price. i thought it was a buyer's car market too - what's the deal?! or should i say where are the deals in NJ? i was actually in the market for a used vehicle and this lexus marketing support through me for a loop b/c of the big discount. unfortunately, i found out about it too late. warnock said they were sold out of the 09 RXs a couple weeks ago and didn't have to go anywhere near $11k under list. i'll let you know how i like the MDX. maybe we can go in together and get a deal for two. thanks for posting that info on AWD.

Does maintenance come with a new lexus purchase? I'm more familiar with BMWs and maintenance is included for first 4yrs/50,000mi. I thought it was included with a Lexus purchase as well, but from what I gathered from the service forum it isn't. Someone mentioned they pre-paid for maintenance... anyone recommend what a good price is and for how long are the contracts?

Hi Car Man: Can you tell us if Lexus has announced any favorable money factor or other incentive yet for the 2010 Lexus RX 350? Thanks, CanStacker |

Replying to: CanStacker (Mar 09, 2009 7:59 pm) I suspect many are waiting for an incentive, but Lexus is probably going to wait to see how the new RX is selling, especdially since supplies are somewhat limited now.. |

Replying to: jpzy3 (Mar 09, 2009 4:03 pm)  They too have good incentives. And if you happen to like MDX, the best price around North Jersey is supposedly Acura of Ramsey. Somebody in the Acura forum was able to get a deal at $38500 (09 MDX with Tech Package) with 2.9 or 3.9% APR for 5 yrs. If you like the X5, you will be pleasantly surprised with the MDX. MDX rides totally differently than Lexus or BMW though. In my humble opinion, it's more sporty and rugged. Performance wise, it blows Lexus and BMW. And their electronic gadgets also blow their competitors. In terms of services, this is where I'm not too happy about. We went to several Acura dealerships to service our RL and they rarely have any loaners available. You have to make an appointment like at least 3 days in advance. HQ Customer Services follow up dilligently with most complaints though. A colleague owns a Lexus and he told me that Lexus' HQ Customer Care never follows up on complaints. Only on praises.... that's why they have "over the chart" customer satisfaction... hehehe.... Subaru isn't going to budge their prices. While other car manufacturers suffer, Hyundai and Subaru are actually doing very well in comparison. Please tell your coworker to stay away from Ramsey Subaru or any other Ramsey Auto Group (Acura of Ramsey is not a part of this group). They got sued and lost due to their unethical business practices, and still they scam at every possible opportunity. We got scammed and I would never forgive/forget it. Will find out the name of the salesperson and post it on ripoff.com. That should teach him a lesson... Subaru itself is not a bad car. It's a high performance car (at least mine is). But the electronic gadget is sooooo outdated.... HQ Customer care is somewhat descent, though you really have to make your case with them. Anyway just my 2 cents. I'll never consider cayenne.... it's too much hassle, and not enough ROI. My Subaru has the same boxer engine... not sure how long it will last as this is the first time ever I own a subaru, but crossing my finger.
