Got another offer of $3000 off MSRP of $46,543 from Lexus of Rockville, a little better than offer from Lexus of Silver Spring. According to this site, invoice is $41,045, so their margin is about $2500. Not great, but not bad considering no real negotiations required. Unfortunately, wife has decided she wants to keep 2005 Acura TL a while longer. Thanks to everyone on this forum. I will check back if wife changes her mind.

If you're at all interested in a new 2009 RX350, you better start searching your area dealer's inventory quickly. If they have any left, you can expect to pay around $4000 under dealer invoice for one. It's a great deal unless your heart is set on the 2010.

Just closed on a new RX last night and paid $1400 over invoice. Invoice was $41,390 (including LDA) and the purchase price was $42,790. The car is AWD,
with nav, premium, 19 inch wheels, ... I think this was a good deal, as other dealers would only give me 1500 off MSRP.

Dr Pann
 
tell us--what were inventories like at the dealers? Have inventories of the '10 rx already started growing or are they eager to make a sale.

I would also think that once 2009 inventories are run down, the dealers wil not be pushing the 09's vs 10s by not discounting the 10's -have to make it attrctive to buy a older model with fewer features.
 
but they want to and need to clear out the prior year model real fast.

drpann,
There must be more options on your new RX than what you listed. An AWD RX equipped with nav, premium pkg and 19" wheels invoices for $39,431 not $41,390. Hope you didn't fall for the fake invoice scam.

i expect to pay $5k under invoice as that is the current marketing support as listed by edmunds... problem is, who's got any left?
 
i guess i'd have to settle for a highlander if i can't get anything done...

Please share with us all the options and the MSRP. Also, I assume the price you mentioned did not include any taxes, etc.
 
Did you trade?

A fake invoice scam-from a dealer?? I would be surprised. Do you think a dealer would come up with fake invoice prices? Sure would be unethical, to say the least.

So you expect a Lexus dealer to sell you the car for less than he paid for it? The dealers have advertising fees attached to all of their inventory that does not show up on the invoice. Basically, you're expecting the dealer to stay in business by accepting dealer holdback as his only profit. Good luck trying to find a dealer with enough '09 inventory left to make him that desperate. My bet is that you'll end up with a 2010.
