Ya man, I actually prefer UW/RR, my Evo is white. But for some reason my wife is against it 100%. So I have no choice but going with a darker color. Who you telling man, if it isnt cars, its guns haha

Dealership 2- Black/Black OTD- $44603.99

Now my wife does not like White at all, even tho it is the better deal. Are these numbers pretty good? Im also looking at leasing so I will have those numbers tomorrow. Let me know what you think.

Awesome man, what branch? Im Army
Seems like the discounts should be better than that. Review the last few months posts in this thread - I believe a number of FL folks were getting deals similar to our deals out here in CA - 10% or better off msrp.

Keep us posted.

30 years Marine Corps - ooooh RAH!



Update - Whoops - must've been seeing things - didn't notice the OTD - if that includes taxes and fees, I agree with azmojo - great deal on the white - pretty good on the black. Although that seems like a real deep discount of 15-17% off msrp - what are the actual selling prices and how much are the taxes and fees?

Invoice is $44,100. If taxes and tags and any other fees are $3-4k, then you are getting a smoking deal and are $3-4k under invoice. I would not expect to do better.

Hello everyone!

I'm new here and been following this huge thread quite some time. I've been reading that people have been getting crazy deals in SoCal (where I live) but I can't seem to replicate anything close to it. Can anybody PM me dealerships that they've done business with? I was looking to buy at first but it seems most people are leasing because of the awesome deals!

Hi, I am new to this forum and I am so glad I found it! I'm looking to purchase a new 2015 Lexus IS350 f sport white/black interior with navi/sound system... I'm in socal and the dealerships around me don't have this in stock. I did find one dealership who can get me one from Arizona for $49,773 MSRP out the door... This quote is also including the $925 delivery charge they will waive. Is this a good deal?

azmojo I pm'ed you for the contact...

Thank you all!

I'm not sure leasing is going to be cheaper other than there is an extra $500 discount from Lexus on leases. Otherwise the deals should be similar and you just have to decide for yourself lease vs. purchase. I'll PM my contact.

Oh yeah - that's a pretty solid deal - $6k discount - almost 13% off msrp - the military discount is icing on the cake bringing it to $6750 off for 14% - very nice - rivals the CA deals.

Hopefully you can convince your wife on the white - easier to keep clean than the black (my opinion).

Let us know how it goes.

Question Las Vegas / red interior questions

I'm a prospective IS250 F Sport buyer in the Las Vegas area. I'm seeing lots of great info on this forum about deals in California. Does anybody on this forum know if I can expect similar prices in Nevada? Or might I be better off purchasing in CA?

Also...my preferred color combination is Nebula Gray with a red interior. Any thoughts on whether the less common red interior makes it harder to get a good deal?

You can try. There isn't a lot of competition in Vegas. In February, when I talked to them about a special order one dealer offered to special order one at full MSRP (Gee thanks, I can get that deal anywhere), and IIRC another offered at $500 over invoice (not bad, but you can do better).

Is anyone doing a $0 down, $0 out of pocket lease with the 250 or 350 F Sport? Trying to see what payment people are getting.

If you're looking for a legitimately accurate comparison, you'll need to find someone whose taxes and fees are the same as they are in your location. If you've got a net cap cost (selling price), sales tax data, and all fees that would be rolled into the payment, you can calculate the payment using the money factor and residual for the lease terms you want. If you'd like to provide that info, we could probably give you a good idea of what to expect for a payment.

Let us know how it goes.

So I'm trying to figure out how this lease price works, there numbers are a lot higher than mine when I did the math I even rounded up. So here it is;

MSRP- 47519
Negotiated Price- 41500 (without tax/tags)
MF- .00010 (with max MSD of 3600.00)
Residual- 33263.3 (70%)
0 down other than MSDs
27months/10k
Rebate- $500 and $750
So I added in an extra $1500 for tags and fees.
Total- $321.8 a month. Am I missing something that I'm not doing right or they just adding a bunch of bs. Because there numbers are at like $385.00 some were at 365.00+$20.00 tax, ect

Are you certain of the money factor - I think the buy rate right now is .0009 so max MSDs would reduce that to .00018 (.0009 - .00072). Also, I think maybe the 500 rebate is already in the 41.5 selling price? With those things in mind, I get a payment of 379 (incl 6% sales tax).

If any of the things I just said don't jive with what you got, let me know and I'll recalculate.
