In April '11 in flew up to NJ and drove my "new" 350 back home. The Carolinas market for Lexus sucks, and unless you get out of that box you won't get a deal. If you want to get a deal and save some green, check out some in FL/AL/GA/VA.
In my case I took a chance and purchased the car without personally being able to thoroughly go through it on-site. Luckily the full car history was available thanks to the Carfax and the Lexus website. Of course I had ALOT of pictures sent to me before the flight out there, but that's a far cry from visiting it locally.
The deal I got was for a '06 IS350 with 31k miles with Sports pkg + memory seats + NAV. Check it...paid <$21k OTD!

When it comes down to it, they'll adjust accordingly just like any dealership will. I bought from an Autolenders in NJ which basically is the same thing and the price moved about 3k as well as taking a more-than-healthy sum for my trade.

I'm transferring a 07 IS350 from one carmax to my local one, should be here next week. I was wondering if you guys think its a good deal? Its almost fully loaded except no ML system.
Its $27,890 with low miles about 38k. Of course carmax doesn't do negotiations so do you think this is a good price for this car given its mileage and options? It thought it was very reasonable. Thanks.
