Prices below MSRP vary from area to area. In areas where there isn't the competition you often can't get the dealer to come down as much as people here would have you believe. And if it is a 350 that has a lot of options it is even tougher. It's just like real estate, "Location, location, location". People in CA are spoiled as there are lots of dealers and more competition. In a place like Houston, TX, for example, there are 4 dealers (and 2 are owned by the same company) for a population of 5.5 million. Three competing companies in a population that large does not set the stage for deep discounting. And that is just the way Lexus likes it.

gsr... not really
if he was from Cali... yes... other states doesn't apply
IS250's in east coast are selling at msrp...
Cali... if you pay anything over invoice in Cali for an IS250 you got...
SCREWED..
IS250's in east coast, etc. sell for over invoice... typically minimum $500 over and if you get that.. really you scored there... but not for us in Cali... I don't know why but they just sell for below invoice
everyday.

I got my 2006 IS250 with Nav, premium for $33290+TTL in may of last year. When I posted that everyone said I got a killer deal. Do the prices change that much from May of last year?

I live in Maryland, just outside of DC, where all of the 250s within a 500 mile radius are AWD. I wanted a RWD 250, but couldn't afford the 350. Therefore, I contacted a dealer in Cali, got a price quote of $1,500 under invoice ... they are doing all of the DMV work ... and having it shipped for about $875 to my front door.
The best price I could find in this area was about $1,700-1,900 over invoice ... for the same car (NAVI, Premium, 18", HIDs).
