I've been gathering information from this forum and did some other research on and off line. Got a deal from a local dealer for '08 Rx350 AWD with premium package D which is the one w/o nav:
MSRP 43,056
Sales price 37,944 (600 below invoice according to dealer)
Lease term 36/12k
MF 0.00195
RV 58% of MSRP
Cap cost reduction 0
Drive off 913.63
Monthly payment 542.17
comments welcome

First, you said MSRP according to the dealer. Ask to SEE the invoice. They must show you!
 
I calculated the numbers you gave and came up with $483 per month!!!!!
 
Either the dealer is padding your payment for his profit, or there are fees and taxes you didn't mention. Does this amount include the taxes and aquisition fee?
 
Just picked up my RX-350 AWD today, Premium Plus w/o nav.
MSRP 41,746
Sales price 38,511
MF .00175
Residual 20038
48 month lease
 
With taxes and all fees.....monthly payment 535.07 with no cap cost reduction.

Acquisition fee of 600 to be added to final sales price. Monthly payment quoted includes tax of 8.25%. Using the calculator from www.carbuyingtips.com I come up with the exact figures so I think the dealer is honest with these numbers.

New to the site and getting ready to buy. Here's what my local dealer quoted for a 2008 RX350 FWD:
 
18" 7 Spoke Wheels
Multi-Stage Heated Front Seats
Generation 5 Navigation w/ bluetooth
Premium Plus Package
Towing Package
Wheel locks
Cargo Mat
Destination Charge: $715
Procurement Fee: $289
Total before taxes/title/license: $41,589 (this number includes the destination and procurement)
MSRP: $44,416
 
I offered $40,641 but the salesperson wouldn't budge. Was wondering if the dealership's offer was reasonable. Any thoughts would be helpful.

New to the site. I am looking to purchase a Rx 350 with AWD, Premium Plus and NV. Dealer in bayarea offered me a $40K and says the price is $300 below invoice. Is this price reasonable. MSRP and invoice specified by the dealer is not matching with the Edmunds/Vehix. What is the best way to check the MSRP and Invoice.
 
Please help

Just purchased a 2008 FWD RX350 with premium plus package plus navigation system. MSRP was 44,400 and I negotiated down via email with the internet sales manager to $39,600 including destination. Got a bamboo pearl with grey leather. was a wonderful buying experience. No hassles. Invoice was quoted to me as $39,200 for this package. Next best offer was at park place grapevine for 40,300. I purchased at Sewell in Dallas. i can also be reached at srinivmobaylorhealth.edu.

Lease 2008 RX 350 AWD by carlovernj

Thank you all for such great advice and information. I'm hoping that someone knows how to calculate a monthly lease amount for me. I was interested in leasing the following vehicle for 36 months:
  
2008 RX 350 AWD with the Premium Plus Package - Luxury Value Edition with additional options. The base price of the car is $38,800 + Options $6,191 + Delivery and Handling $715 = MSRP $45,706. The dealer cost is approx 39,838 and I would hope to pay $41,000.
  
I would be in the top credit category (tier 1), I believe is .00195, My out of pocket will be $3,000 at time of lease, NJ sales tax of 7%, assume a residual of 56%. I wanted to know the monthly lease amount with tax.
  
If there is another piece of information which is needed, please let me know. Thank you so much for your help.

To answer your question, I calculated $596.48 per month including tax. That is without any title or registration fees. I wouldn't recommend putting that much down on a lease. Also, with tier one credit, I just got a money factor of .00175 through Lexus financial. I would insist on a better rate. That makes a HUGE difference. Let me know if you need anymore help.
