What should I expect to pay? (2014 GS350 AWD F-Sport)
#16
Wow - So invoice price on a 2014 F-Sport is $55,213 according to Edmunds (with Blind Spot and Parking Assist). So if you're saying last December it would have been $6000 off invoice, that would put the price of a 2014 at $49,213. I think that would be within reach for me - just have to wait until December!

Oh, and I got a RWD, so 49 is probably more likely, but again that just raises the MSRP.

I've been pinging a lot of dealerships in my area lately - it is unbelievable how many dealers will not provide you a price via email and insist you come in person - even if you live over 200 miles away!
It is maybe not all that surprising how few dealers read the email you send them. One person quoted me a price for a 2014 RWD GS350 non-Fsport after I asked him for an AWD GS350 F-Sport!
The last time I did this, which was admittedly awhile ago every dealer responded with a price and it was a breeze - this time I am having to spend a lot more time getting dealers to give me a price via email. Some of them really don't get it. My favorite is a dealer that has an Internet Sales Manager that will only provide pricing on the phone - that seems funny to me (and probably shady since they won't provide a price in writing).
Anyway - best price so far has been $53,500 before taxes, tags, prep-fee, etc.
I was hoping I might be able to get someone to come down closer to ~$51k and then I might just bite instead of waiting for Christmas time - but with no rebates from Lexus being offered right now I guess I'll have to keep waiting. If they offered a $2800 rebate like they have right now on a 2013 GS350 F-Sport and I could turn that $53500 into $50700 I think I'd be heading over to pick up the car right now
