The initial price for my ride was $36,800, and I got it down to $33,200, then after tax and everything it was $36,xxx...
Maybe location, I'm from Seattle and only IS250 AWDs were around $38k, and I was offered a brand new 2008 IS250 AWD for $36k with Nav. The IS-F here was priced at $62k. IS250 was as fast as my Celica GT-S so opted for the used IS350. 17k miles isn't that much and it was in excellent condition.
The only regret I have is color, silver is growing on me but I wish I had a black car...
Anyhow, what have you decided?

i'm deciding maybe fly to cali i have family there anyways, but on the other hand texas dealerships still shouldnt be pricing them at 36k right? maybe 36k after tax and title for a used 350 with 25k miles on it i'm thinking that would be reasonable you think i can get them down that low? keep in mind i'm the most patient person in the world...

I say try and get it down to like $28k, what year is it? Try Kelley Blue Book to see average prices for it: http://www.kbb.com/kbb/UsedCars/defa...ufacturerId=27
Mine was around $34k in my area, so I got a fair deal.

Dude, if you can save a few grand buy it in cali and drive it home. Check auto trader around San Diego or LA. I got my 06 IS last April with 17 k miles, luxury, Nav, ML, all the good stuff for 29,995 so it came to 32K with tax, title license. Now I know that was for an '06 but it that was about 6 months ago so now you might find an '07 for the same price. Patience is your friend!

Are you shopping in Canada? US spec IS350s have to be completely LOADED (including pre-collision and radar cruise) before they even get close to stickering for $50k. Once you hit $50k, there are a lot of competitive options open.

Here in Hawaii, everything is marked up $4,000. We got our fully loaded non NAV 07 IS250 for $38,000, sticker was $42,000, with warranty. In Hawaii everything is super expensive so I could only wish for deals like you guys. Good luck with the search.
