Ya I had gone in with a deal I had from a non f sport 350 with nav the night before from another dealer. Sticker was 46 on that one and was dropped to 40k family discount and well I walked into the other dealer next day looking to get that beat and ended up walking out with the F sport because it was only $18 more a month for my lease no brainer.

Does anyone have experience in negotiating their purchase on a vehicle that wasn't sitting on the lot? The color and option combination I am looking for is not readily available and will have to be shipped from another dealer or ordered. Do you lose all ability to negotiate?
When you are emailing dealers for quotes will they only consider vehicles in inventory? Thanks!

Two Lexus dealers near my house each have one F-sport 250. Truecar.com is reporting people are getting 1K off sticker according to the last 8 sales in the Houston area.
See what Truecar.com is saying for your area.

Seems like the people getting the deals are cars that are on the lots and seems to be mostly California and Florida who actually have cars on their lots.

True but since we can't get the cars here in my area seeing them coming off the sticker now is a welcome change. Last month they were not coming off sticker according to Truecar.

That seems like a solid deal. They offered me $1,500 off today, but I know buying at the end of the month or year will get me better pricing. When they offered $500 off how'd you work them down? Did you tell them you wouldn't buy unless they got $4 k off? Today I got the standard "this is a new car in high demand" speech.

Since two local dealers are owned by the same owner I had to get price quotes from out of state. I intended to purchase from out of state but local dealer basically match the deal. It worked out better since I didn't have to pay the shipping I would prefer to start a good relationship with my local dealer if possible since I intend to service my car there.

I tried negotiating for a car that wasn't on the lot before I bought my Lexus, but with Audi, because I was looking for a manual A4. I felt like they are willing to work for you but definitely not as much as they would if the car was on the lot. I got the impression several times that they would only go get the car if there was a lot in it for them. They kept trying to push for another one on the lot that I didn't want. Ultimately, they can always say that they couldn't get the one you wanted or try to switch it up on you just because they know they won't make money on the deal. Just my 2 cents, deal for the car on the lot, unless you are ordering it from the factory.
