OH BTW Hung is right there isn't alot of IS 350's here in the Northeast. I used to live in CA and saw them all over Orange County and LA and that was back in 2005-2006. I think i've only seen 2 IS350's in the past year in NYC. I've seen maybe 30 AWD iIS 250's.

It was black with 15K miles..
Not listed yet but 250s for sale at Rallye are under $31K he got for the trade.
Also paid $35K for the IS350.
Seems the dealer will break even or take a loss when his trade sells.
Rallye definitely wanted to get rid of that '06.
There's another new '06 there that someone can get a great deal on.
Still a very strange situation.

You can turn off trac, you just have to do the 'pedal dance'. It is a pain to search for so I included it in my signature!

now that I look at it, its really weird...they are selling the used is250 awd for around the price they gave me...i wonder what kind of profit they can seriously make from it.

Less.
Those prices are asking prices and will sell for less.
Hard to see that dealer make any profit on your deal.
You got $31K for your trade.The trade in value was $28K. The final cost of $35.5 on the 350.
I honestly can't see how the dealer is making money on your deal.
It sure looks like somehow the dealer lost money.

Hung, I don't want to panic you but did you ask the dealer why they had 06 350 with such low mileage and willing to sell so low price? I doubt people can rollback odometer but you got a deal of a lifetime.

Dealer loaner or tester?

i did ask, they just said its been sitting around, moved around, but no one wants to buy it.. doubt its a loaner , the mileage is way too low. tester?? if it is , then it hasnt been tested that much..

'07 IS350 here. As far as tires go, I do not like the RE050s. Great dry traction. I never drive in the rain. Thats what my truck is for. Alot of road noise. Looking forward to replacing them with a high performance all season tire. Probably pilot sports or the bridgestone all season tire. Enjoy the ride.
