Default Just picked up a gs350....

Just came home with a Graphite Meca 08 gs350 rwd with ML+NAV. paid 45750+ttl. suppost to be 211 over invoice. wasnt really that hard for me to get that deal. just a few phone calls sharing with different dealerships what i was getting offered and they would battle each other. started at 1k, then 500, then 400, then 300, then 211. pretty good deal?

Sure. As long as you're happy. Prolly could have gotten them to invoice without too much more trouble, but it's only a couple hundred bucks on a $50K car. % wise, $200 is nothing. Can't change anything now anyways so just enjoy your sweet ride.

tmister2:

Where in CA are you from? I bought my 08 GS350 and paid 46,064 +ttl. Which is 300 over invoice. My car came with ML/NAV all the options including the illuminated door sills. Did yours came with it? Also got a free set of OEM Lexus all weather mats and extra 2 key fobs leather pouches.

Sounds good to me. Hawaii doesnt give discounts off the cars. But I was "lucky" to get it at 50k. And mine was WITHOUT nav. >.<

Congrats, OP you got a great deal - $200 over invoice for a '08 GS350 ML/Nav is a sweet deal, even in SoCal. Most SoCal dealers are willing to go close to invoice on a non-ML GS, but want more for the ML GS. Best I was quoted was 1,000 over for a GS w/ML . . .
