Default Non-NAV, Non-ML

Are they shipping any unloaded 430's anywhere in the US yet or do you have to special order?

All GS430s shipped currently are all w/ML-Nav package only.

That is incorrect flipside909. I have seen GS430's withouth ML and NAV as well.

They come with sticker 51,125 for the base vehicle and then add the "premium pkg options" withouht the addition of ML/NAV.

GS3rdwow, i'm speaking for SoCal western region only. From what I recall you're in Wyoming, no where near the LA Region.

Thanks.

Every GS430 I've seen here in So. Cal has been fully loaded w/ a MSRP of $58,3xx (but no PCS or laser cruise control).

However, I do remember reading a post in the lexus forum at edmunds.com where a gentlemen in Florida purchased a GS 430 w/ no Nav/ML.

In addition, Las Vegas only has one Lexus dealer in town, Fletcher Jones Lexus and only 2 whole dealerships in the state of Nevada, the other being in Reno. I can guarantee you most of the inventory that ships to Fletcher Jones parallels what LA Region recieves. Most people who are going to buy a GS430 will not get it as a base model...especially here in Southern California, which is why you see the base GS300 non Nav/ML units cut w/discounts first.

not trying to pick a fight or sumthign but..this is what you wrote..

"All GS430s shipped currently are all w/ML-Nav package only"


Nowhere does that say talking about california only. That implies ALL gs430's..(like u said)...besides the question adressed didnt specify california either - it says "US".

Just correcting you.

I didn't get a chance to edit my post until you jumped on it. When will you get your GS3 already so you can share us instead of shop and annoy every single dealership in the United States about pricing?

Flip just chill out aright? You think youre some god and that whatever you post is right - let me break it to ya buddy - YOURE HUMAN - ACCEPT YOUR ERRORS. Get out of this fantasy land thinking whatever you say is 100% correct all the time on this forum. I may not be right all the time but at least this time regarding this thread fess up and be a MAN and admit when youre wrong instead of trying to cover up like a snitch.

And its my right to call as many dealerships as i want. Your prestigious Longo lexus is not the only gun in town giving "deals". I am a smart shopper and where my wallet is least stretched in the long run after all expenses are met, is the place where I will buy from. I'll call as many as I want to get the deal I am long for on this car. What's biting you?

OK both of you guys knock it off.

Flip has admitted his initial statement was inaccurate and/or misleading. Let's get back to helping the original poster answer his question instead of picking apart wording and swapping insults.

Ryan, the comment below was absolutely personal and not needed.

GS3rdWow, same thing for you. I know you were provoked, but please review the forum rules on 'response to comments'. In brief it says walk away or it it really bothers you contact a moderator.

Back on track from this point forward please.

Moving forward...most dealerships in the United States will carry a majority of GS430 w/Nav & ML models. There is a slim chance you will find a base model GS430, but because that is not the particular vehicle package of choice, you have a 10 to 1 chance of finding one walking up to your nearest dealership. Your best bet is to special order it unless your local dealer can find it or see it in the manifest.
