NEED help with buying new is 250
okay i saw in the sales thread on how some of you guys got hella off msrp and some below invoice. I was wondering if some of the people who got their is250 awd with navigation and premuim package msrp for that is about 40,000. i talked to one of the sales guys here in WA and they said they would match the price if i can get a vin number here so they can see the car, so that every feature is the same. I would greatly appriciate the help guys. I was seeing someone got the same car for about 34,800 otd so if that person would please help me by giving me the vin number.

I found out by posting here that no one wants to help. They'll tell you to do a search. Just shoot for invoice and know that it's a great price. I'm 99.9% sure that nobody got the car you mentioned for $34.8 out the door. Good luck.

OTD means sales tax included? For a 40k MSRP and the want it for 34.8K (after taxes) which means the car itself is about $32,xxx. This is thousands below invoice for this car. it is hard to get it if I don't say impossible.
I just got mine (AWD, Premium Plus, Navi, HID, and accessories) for $35,750 before taxes (plus $250 for dealer fees). You may get it for 35k even on Dec 30th.
Good luck,

OTD the door means taxes and all that other stuff. I just got my RWD, NAVI, HID, Premium pkg. IS250 for $33,380 before taxes. So I find it hard to believe someone could get a 8K of an IS. I don't think Lexus needs sales that bad.

until someone can prove ^^^, i call BS sales tactic. low ball them to get them to bust out the invoice, and then up your offer to invoice - and stay there. if they don't or can't honor it, move on.

well the sales person thought that a place in california could make that deal and no way anyone in wa can. He said a dealership in cali called longo? i saw that they had 72 is on their lot.

2. AVOID LONGO. do a search in the CL forums and you'll find out why. (they may be the biggest lexus dealership on the west coast though...)
g'luck!

They want the VIN no and an actual offer from another dealer, NOT what someone else paid. They can run the VIN no through thier system on any Lexus new or old and get the option package so they can compare apples to apples & make sure the car on thier lot you're lookin at & the car that you got a price quote on are the SAME CAR.

Anyway enough of the my little rant. sorry.
I recently purchased a 350 with Luxury pack, nav,powershade and illuminating panels. 42,000 otd... i know this doesn't really help since you want a 250 but if you did change your mind and wanted to burn some rubber I would happily send you my VIN#... just pm me. I am alittle hesitant to just post it openly. but like one of the members said it does sound like a BS sales tactic. Good luck though.

i agree w/ Batmobile. just because another member refers you to the search function doesn't mean the community as a whole isn't being helpful. there is a huge 2is knowledge base that can be accessed through the search function. and in most instances, the search results will have your answers. when all else fails, post the question.
PM me if you'd like my VIN as well, though FYI it's a 2k6 tungsten pearl is350 w/ sports pgk + nav + ML that i paid $44k OTD for...

I never said that this site wasn't helpful. I find it interesting. I did a search didn't come up with anything that fit my specific question and posted in here. I got no responses and half the posts I did find in my search said the same thing. I think my wording in this post came off harsher than i realized. Sorry.

Don't know if this helps, but I got an 07 about 4 months ago when they barely came out for $32,700 plus taxes, license, etc.. But without Navi !!
Damn I just noticed I already have 9,500k miles on it. What the hell !!! How did that happen?
