Default Any CURRENT 09 GS350 pricing threads?

Hello GS Forum,

Coming from the IS Forum and did a quick search for 09 Pricing for the GS350 AWD for my parents. Please don't flame me, but I'm having a hard time finding current threads on pricing. Honestly, I don't have as much time these days to be online all night like I use to when getting the wife's IS, so if anyone can direct me to any threads you might know of that would be really helpful to a fellow CL member.

Looking for pricing on an 09 GS 350AWD w/Nav.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I guess there aren't people looking for 09's anymore. Since the 2010 GS is coming out soon, does anyone have any idea what I should be aiming for in an 09?

After buying my GS350 I was shocked and disturbed by how poorly this model holds its value. If your parents can deal with less than 10k-15k on the clock they can probably save 20k. Yes, sadly this is the truth. I am a bit disappointed

Looking at the AMEX car pricing service I can see that in my area 2009 AWD go for $1,000 over invoice. Which seems like a really crappy deal for a 2009 model at the end of 2009. You can get a 2010 Audi A6 Premium Plus - a much better car than the GS 350 for the same amount of money.

what do you mean? 15k on the clock? buy an 08 with 15k miles on it?

Yeah, they made off like robbers! With like... uh $1,500! Wow, now they can afford that private jet they always wanted for their dealership.

Common, get real. A Lexus dealer gets a 2% holdback, so that's like $800-$1,000 on each car. $500 over invoice is a perfectly respectable deal.

The 2010 aren't due in till mid-late november, when they come in it will be awhile before they discount.

The dealer is there to make money, I get that...they got the $500 over invoice + $900 dealer holdback + $399 processing fee....$1800 dollars PLUS they gave me 24k on a 06 GS300 with 51k miles....I am happy!

A while before they discount is 1 week....look back at old threads, they discount them right off the bat. Also, when 10s arrive, leftover 09s will be subsized probably another 5k from lexus to move em. If you are looking at 09 now, wait till 10s arrive, I remember people were commenting on paying like 39k for base 350s a year ago when 09s arrived.

Here is some proof

if you need a car now, you need it now. Life is too short to beat yourself up over a deal, just letting you know. I came here after buying a GS300 and myself since I would have never ever guessed the engine would be upgraded 1 year into the GS lifecycle. It is all good though....enjoy the ride
