Default Who's shopping for a GS300?

Anyone here got their GS300 below invoice? By how much?

I'm tempted to trade in my troubled BMW now!

Looking for one right now in NorCal, and have been quoted 300 and 500 under dealer invoice for cars sitting on the lot.

Vandit: guy named Brian Crocker at Lexus Stevens Creek quoted me 500 under invoice for a silver/black w/Nav., but we already have 3 silver cars and wifey wants the glacier.

Currently working with Roxi Sater at Lexus Oakland - they are going 300 under for glacier/ash no nav. - but this one is not on the lot.

Guy at Pleasanton (Rich?) offered 800 under for a red demo model but don't like that color.

Good luck

Default Invoice was not good enough!

I was on the fence between 2006 and 2007 GS. I decided to go with 2006 for great savings, but then read about all the noises from the dash and then changed mind. Knowing me, the dash noises will drive me insane. I was quoted invoice last week.

I am in the same boat as you guys. Decided on 06 and will upgrade later...Invoice is the best I got so far, and other offers are coming in now at aroiund $1000 OVER invoice. We should team up and choose one dealer and buy all our cars from the so we can get awesome deals...I am looking to buy this weekend or at least next weekend.

Vandit:

Ask them for a breakdown. There is a dealer doc fee they charge. I wonder how much that is.

I have also been looking for an '06 GS300. Best price I have received on an '06 (No Nav, No ML, No chrome) is $39,200. I understand it's invoicing at about $38.500 (not including dest. chrgs). I think I could have knocked it down another $500-700 if i would have thrown out the fact that I know about dealer holdbacks etc.......i just ran out of time and i really wasnt going to buy right there and then.
