| Drove the Venza. Very nice. Not a Lexus but manageable. I am seriously thinking of buying a fully loaded model. I am in the Seattle area. I found a dealer on the East coast that will sell me a fully loaded one at $700 over invoice but then I would have to have it shipped. Can anyone recommend a West coast dealer that is very aggressive with their pricing? | |

Replying to: qs933 (Nov 28, 2008 3:20 pm) I doubt you will find a fully loaded MKX for $33K - that's probably a stripped vehicle that would be hard to come by on a dealer's lot. The low-ball pricing gets you to visit the dealer so they can sell you one for much more. A fully loaded Venza will list for about $38K and a similarly equipped MKX will list for $45K - $47K (it's difficult to get an exact feature-to-feature match). But up in that price range you should compare the MKX with a Lexus RX350 and other similar premium vehicles. 2009 RX350's are great bargains right now. If you still like the MKX, drive one and then immediately take a test drive in a Ford Edge and see which one is the better value. The MKX has a many add-on features but much of its content is identical to the Edge. Also consider value retention: Toyota/Lexus is a very solid company, even in today's economy. Where will Ford/Lincoln be 3 years from now? Will your local dealer still be in business? It's great to have so many choices.

| One of my concerns is the sheet metal. I really like Avalons, and this seems like the Avalon plus the 4WD and cargo versatility that I've been looking for, but it looks like one very flat side panel on the doors with no moldings just like the Avalon which tends to be criticized for its vulnerability to dents. | |
