I'm in PA--Lexus of Chester Springs (PA) and Ray Catena Lexus (NJ) were both about 2% over invoice for AWD, Nav, Lux Pkg. I would think you could negotiate a good price with them, and take it back to DC area to bring your local dealers down a bit.

His offer is at 2% over Invoice and I know that the biggest problem is finding a White IS 250 w/6mt anywhere along the east coast !!! You may have hundreds of them in CA but in VA and surrounding area it pretty skimmpy!!!! Grey I got, Silver I got, White ....... No where to be found!!!!

My new IS 250
MSRP: $35,221 (SP/BLK, PP, HID, 18")
Price Paid: $29,735 + TTL ($1500 under invoice)
It was hard to find Starfire/Black Leather in SoCal, but OC came through for me. All the other major SoCal dealers were at the same price but most had only Tungsten and Obsidian. GFM is also at a premium from what I heard. Anyone looking for Starfire, check out Cerritos, they offered me a place in line for the next one off the ship for the same price, but an IS in the hand is worth, you know.

What did you pay for your IS350 Fully Loaded?
Looking into buying a IS350 Fully Loaded, which is around 45 and some change MSRP. Now the question is, current owners with this model and the exact option, please state your purchase OTD or before tax and license. Thanks and this is much appreciated.

My IS250 had an MSRP of just over $38,100. I bought the vehicle for $32,700 plus free window tinting and exactmats just last month in Houston.
$33,300 was the invoice price of the vehicle, and a point at which the dealer is still making a healthy profit. It is tough to get below invoice deals here in Houston, or anywhere in Texas and the Gulf Coast.
I was actually negotiating with Lexus of Westminster, and settled on a price of $32,700 for the same vehicle, but with no extras such as tinting, etc. $32,100 at Glendale. I told my salesman in Houston that I was on the way to Cali to pick up the vehicle if he didn't give me a good deal. Said he couldn't drop another $1200, but would throw in window tinting and exactmats (combined MSRP of $600). In reality the tinting and mats probably only cost the dealer $200 max.
I paid a few dollars more, but got some extra things, and avoided the hassle of going out of state.

Not necessarily. I saw one with the X-package with navigation when I was looking for one. I also visited one dealer that had 3 non-navigation models on the lot that he couldn't move. He had a waiting list for one with navigation. He was pleading with me to make a deal on the non-navigation model. I told him that I'm not going to spend this type of jack and not get a screen I could touch.

My friend just picked up a 2007 Lexus IS250 yesterday 5/20 for $29,600 MSRP: $35,222 at Longo Lexus. I simply told her not to pay more than $30k for the car before tax/title.
