I'm happy to provide anyone with feedback on lease deal evaluation---I have a good deal of experience with the numbers end of the equation but need your help to do so. In order to make these things useful for everyone who reads this thread, it would be helpful to have the following information on your deal. By standardizing the reporting process, hopefully the overall quality of info available here can be improved for those thinking of leasing.
MSRP*
Negotiated Selling Price
Net Capitalized Cost*
Trade-In Value
Amount Owed on Trade-In
Any Cash Down Payment You're Making
Lease Term (Mileage/Number of Months)*
Quoted Money Factor and Residual % (If Known)*
Your Local Sales Tax Rate (If Known)
The asterisks are items that absolutely must be known to compute valid numbers. If net capitalized cost isn't known, and you know the other numbers we can likely get you a good number. The more information the better.

I've been emailing a few dealerships in so cal and getting a pretty good idea of the price range I can expect otd for an is200t f sport. I would like to trade in my current 08 is250 when buying the new is200t. Should I get them to agree on a price and then bring up the trade in? So if I don't like the trade in offer, I can just walk away even though we agreed on a price for the new car?

Test drove the 200t, at first but no Fsport.
Eventually got the Is250 F-sport for a way better price at $31k at 22k, so I'm not complaining. Got mine in the color I preferred out of all

I see you're in Texas. Did you buy this car at ecarone.com by chance?

Does anyone know if the current lease promo Lexus has for the 2016 IS350 is even "legit?" Meaning, could the lease truly end up costing $409/month for 36 months? I noticed the special mentions it doesn't include dealership fees, taxes, etc. But does anyone know how far off or how much more it could possible be? I know tax is different state to state - but just curious if this is a bait and switch kind of thing. Here's the current special.

The advertisement is definitely "legit" but it's missing some key components. In a way, you answered your own question. The final monthly payment assuming you took this offer wouldn't actually be $409 per month because of the lack of included taxes, fees, and dealer charges. Be careful also of placing the $2,599 down payment on a lease. Most people would advise that you didn't do that since you'd be out the money if you totaled the car during the lease term. They used that amount to make the teaser price more attractive, but you'd be better served keeping those funds in your bank account (granted you'd be paying a higher monthly rate), or if you were to pay them anyway, ask that they be placed as security deposits so that you'd get the money back at the end of the lease. As structured, they are being used to reduce the net capitalized cost which is also conveniently missing from the dealer's advertisement.
MSRP* - 49,524.00
Negotiated Selling Price - 46,699.00
Net Capitalized Cost* - missing on form/don't see this
Trade-In Value - no trade
Amount Owed on Trade-In - no trade
Any Cash Down Payment You're Making - just the advertised was in the deal $2,599.00
Lease Term (Mileage/Number of Months)* - 36 months
Quoted Money Factor and Residual % (If Known)* - .00105
Your Local Sales Tax Rate (If Known) - 8.5%
It also lists a $1,000.00 rebate and shows total cash & rebate as the $2,599.00 and the $1,000.00 rebate = $3,599.00 - i'm guessing this is what they would call the down payment?
They have the payment listed as follows:
Base Payment: $437.16
Tax: $37.16
Monthly payment: $474.32 month
Residual Amt: $32,190.60
Money Factor: .00105
Milage: 10,000 year

There's definitely something else being added in. Using your numbers outlined above and tax rate, I'm getting a base payment of $407.32, plus $34.62 in tax for a total of $441.94. See if you can get them to provide you with the net capitalized cost. They should be able to do this pretty easily if they've provided the other information. We'll be able to figure out from that what exactly they're adding or changing.
