Why is everyone so concerned w/how much OTHERS think they paid??? If you think you overpaid then you did. Did you pay more than MSRP?? If you did, then YES you overpaid.

tough to say if you dont tell us your selling price, not your out the door amount. we have no idea how much the dealer fees, taxes, and license were. give msrp followed by your selling price, then we can have a better idea for you.

no way an 07 is350 with nav, hids, and sports package has an msrp of 35.7k. msrp for the car has to be 42k, so if you can paid an OTD with T/R/L included for price of MSRP then you got urself the same deal a lot of people are getting.

i'm guessing the OP mean to say the base 350 had the msrp of 35,700. the other options added the remaining amount to make the 42K price tag.

Do you have a 350 or 250?? Name conflicts w/the car you said you purchased. Just wondering.

Default You can't do anything about it anymore...

If you THINK you overpaid, then you did.

Whether or not you did overpay or paid "just the right amount," it's up to what you think (and you alone). Some people paid below invoice and think they overpaid. Some people paid MSRP and thought they got away with a great value.

Stop worrying about the fact of what you paid; it's done and over with.

ENJOY YOUR CAR!!!

Why is everyone commenting on his English instead of trying to answer his question?

If you cant understand what he's saying... take a step back, and read another thread.

There is no need for this attitude here on Club Lexus. I can feel the suspension stick coming around the corner.

Regadless of his English, grammer, etc... let's just help the guy/gal!

IF you already purchased the car. It's too late. Did you overpay? Every dealer I tried to talk to in Wash told me MSRP or come up from Portland and we will talk. The market up there for dealers is very good for IS's. Maybe a bunch of Microsoft or money loaded$ people who just want the car and don't care too bargain. Supply & demand may also drive the cost. They get much better deals in CA and elsewhere where there is lots of supply and competition. In the NW, there are only 3 dealers in your area and 2 in Oregon, so they dictate when they don't have much on their lots. Lexus of Portland only gave me $1000 off MSRP. I ended up buying from Kendall Lexus in Eugene b/c they gave me $2700 off. Timing is also a factor, they were really desperate to sell a car that day. My $40,500 price is not good as others out there, but I don't care. I'm happy with my purchase. If you are happy with your car... then it was good money paid.

I was dealer bait once. They played me for 4 hours. I was young and dumb 12 years ago. I won't ever pay close MSRP again. Just let it be a learning experience. IF you think you overpd, do more research next time.

I think that the point of the responses in this post is to say that there is nothing the OP can do about it now. If he/she overpaid, what is he/she going to do, go back to the dealer and demand money back? I don't think so. There's nothing we can do to help with that, except for if he did pay too much, we helped him realize that he may have made a bad deal and he'll have buyer's remorse for the duration of his loan.

Go out and enjoy your car. Sometimes ignorance is bliss. If you like the car, then enjoy it and consider it money well spent.
