Sorry for the delayed response, my computer **** the bed and I had to fix it. But any who, the car was on sale there originally for $43K in December '14. I had them lower the price down to $37k because it was a RWD and this was the beginning of the month long snow storm here, and there was no way they were gonna off load that car quickly in snowy weather. I traded in a 2008 IS250 AWD with 63k in milage that they gave me $9k for (bumper got ripped off by a plow truck in the drive way, and I had replaced it with a unpainted one). $37,000 + $2312 (6.25% MA sales tax)= $39, 312 - $9k trade in= $30,312. Roughly 30K out of pocket for me. But this was back when the 350 F-Sport was still over $40K.

That car sat in my drive way for 2.5 weeks until the snow started to melt and the streets were a little wider for two cars to pass through. I didn't want to drive my shiny, new-to-me Lexus and crash within the first few days of having it as it was my first RWD car. Any who i am DEFINITELY investing in some dedicated snow tires for this year, no unintentional rally racing or drifting for this guy
