According to Edmunds’ TMV pricing, the 08 Ls is already selling over 17k off the MSRP. I got a 08 RX 400H in July for my wife from Cherry Lexus in South Jersey with only 3.5k off the MSRP, now the same car sells 6-7k off! I wish I wouldn’t had gotten my 08 535xi and 750Li earlier last year from the BMW right next door to the Lexus; the car market is crashing down just like the housing, 5 miles away from my house, the FC Kerbeck Dealership was selling 07 and 08 Caddys in half price when I drove by the dealer’s lots this morning on my way to work.

I'm planning to buy a new LS460 and wanted to know what people are paying. The car I'm looking at has a MSRP of 69, 100 (basic navigation system and the comfort package). The opening offer by the dealer was 64,000. What is a good price to target?
Any advice is appreciated!!

I wanted to buy one also but didn't want the GPS and comfort package as I don't think it is worth the few thousand dollars. They call that as an option, but it seems all cars come with this add-on. The price I quoted for what you want is also 64k. I won't buy for another few months and I would be interested to know what you will pay if you are buying soon. Where are you? I live in the SF bay area.

Dallas - There are two dealership in town and four more within 200 miles that are competing for my business. As the month winds down I'll see how bad they want my business. I'll let you know.

I just bought a 2009 LS SWB, RWD. Sticker was $66,034 I paid $58, 800.
You can easily take off around 10% off the sticker. I am in Maryland and bought the vehicle from a dealer in Manmouth, New Jersey.
Big dealer with lots of inventory. My local dealer in Maryland was selling me a used 2008 model with 13, 500 miles for the same price.

Hi, SK:
Thanks for the info.
What options on your LS to get MSRP $66,034? Looks like Navigation + comfort package would put MSRP $69,100.
Cheers!

George:
Sorry for getting back to you so late.
The options it had were the basic Comfort Package and some other accessories like cargo net, all weather mats etc. I did not want a navigation as you cannot operate or change the destination on it while moving. I heard its a nuisance sometimes.
Hope this helps.
