Default semi rumor- Lexus of Glendale sells first ISF for 80k

Yep, thats what a sales person told my buddy they sold their first ISF for.

Does that seem insane to anybody else.

Report to Lexus Corp if true, unless the mark-up is ALL dealer add-on's . . .

Yea, thats why I'm saying semi rumor. Who knows if it is true or not. My opinion is that I think the guy was just getting my friend into the mindset that there is a large mark up, since my friend was interested in the car.

I told him if he's serious look elsewhere, and report it to corporate.

Shady sales tactic at the very least.

AsianGirl007 reported that the Lexus of Glendale IS-F had a lot of dealer-installed items, which could have been removed at customer request...

Yes it did have a lot of "extras" and yes, that's what I was told by my sales guy.

hahah I saw a GS with a markup of 11k for wheels. :rofl

Anyone in their right mind would never pay that ridiculous amount for wheels, but I'm sure somehow they get people too. >.<

OKAY STOP RUMORS and NONSENSE!!!!!!

NO they have not sold it, I just stoped by its on my way home. Its still sitting in the show room floor without the shift ****. HAHA.

It's got 7500 Dealer mark up

it had a 5k VSA(service agreement)
1k for rear tint
1k for ipod
and one other thingfor 1 k i think and something for liike 2500.

But yes someone must really be stupid to pay 80k for the car. My guy is still on vacation and he works at Glendale so I wasnt able to chat with him to see what they were thinking but as soon as i walked up 3 sales men were killing them self to talk to me and I just said chill hommie I only deal with my guy!

I'm not surprised.....

They will have a better chance selling it with NO ADD ON's and of course, for MSRP*...
