Not bad pricing... I was expecting it to be closer to $70-75K. Let's just hope the dealers don't go nuts with add ons or "market adjustments."

That price is MORE THAN FAIR!! That is an AWESOME base price. Most will be sold at 60k. I think they knew that. They knew most will buy the ML/NAV to get it right under 60k. Pre-crash is not a heavily bought option.

So you get a loaded IS-F pretty much for the base price of the competition if not higher.

BRAVO LEXUS!!! Fantastic First Effort!!



I go to Moroso Motorsports park to drive this puppy next week!!!

I wish the interior were a little better but even as is, that's a solid bargain compared to the competition. You can get it with Navi and Mark Levinson and still not come close to the M3's base price.

Release says:
Base $56,000.
With nav $59,315 including DPH fee.
Since the release says nav is 2550 that means this DPH fee is $765 (ouch).

The ML adds $1440 (!) for a total of $60755.

I expect most to come with nav or nav and ML so an average MSRP will be about $60K. I expect few discounts!

Anyone out there have a thought on who they think the likely buyer demographic is for this car (new car buyers, not used)?
the one you talking about is "advanced parking guidance"

I was expecting 58k this is very good ISF should make a small impact om M3, C63, and RS4.
