If you don't value performance, this is a no-brainer: IS250.

The model my nearby dealer has is configured as followed:

2011 Lexus IS250
Bi-Xenon High Intensity Headlamps w/LED
F-Sport Package w/18" Wheels and Summer Tires
Smoky Granite Mica
Preferred Accessory Package
Navigation System

Destination Fee $875
($163) Color Adjustment
($89) Total Price

Invoice $36,978 MSRP $41,340 TMV $38,362

I'm shooting for $37500 - $1000 loyalty incentive = $36500 before taxes/title/etc

Is this reasonable?



For reference, the G37 is:

Invoice $37,577 MSRP $40,895 TMV $37,324

I'd get this locked in at $36,577 with VPP Pricing

Yes, it is reasonable. you should go for the G though.

If you can get that price, I say go for it. I'm also debating between IS250 F-Sport, IS350 Luxury, and G37 coupe. Most of the Lexus dealerships I have contacted in SoCal, are pretty much playing the low inventory, high demand card on both of the Lexus vehicles because IS250 is an F-Sport Package which is rare and IS350 itself is rare so they are only giving me about $1500 + $1000 loyalty incentive whereas Infiniti dealerships are easily giving me $4000 to $5000 discount right off the bat. At the price of IS250 that the dealerships are offering me, I can easily get a G37 Coupe at the same price.

go for the G
but i hope you change your mind and get a 350
250's are too slow
iv had a 250 for 2 years and loved every bit of it.. untill i floored it
now i have a 350 and all i can say is that it's worth every penny

i had a 350 loved it, i have a g35 and im not happy. i know its not a g37. but the quality and comfort just isnt there.

The g is truly a step down in terms of luxury and fit and finish. But the coupe is sexy, and some epic performance mods await the brave.

Thanks for the help so far everyone. Lexus dealer says that there are no remaining 2011 SGM IS250's with F-Sport (no F-Sport left of any color at their dealership either) in the southeast area. They sold the last SGM F-Sport the day before I visited the dealership (Also Infiniti wasn't open that day).

Looks like I'll be waiting for next month's inventory unless someone has insight.

start talking to dealers in surrounding states. especially since your buying new. getting one shipped to you wont be difficult at all and youll have more choices car wise
