Default Canadian Pricing for IS-F

I'm not sure how many Canadian IS-F owners are on these boards, and in fact I've only come across one from Vancouver so far, but my question is for Canadian owners in general: just how much are you paying for an IS-F?

I'm planning on selling my 2006 Audi S4 once this winter season is over and done with, and the IS-F is one of the cars I'm looking to as a replacement. I've done some preliminary research at the dealership near my office (Regency Lexus in Vancouver) and the list price for a fully-loaded '09 is C$70,445.

Has anyone in Canada bought one in the recent couple of months? What kind of offers are successfully being accepted by dealerships here in Canada?

Any info you could share would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

You won't find much of a deal from Lexus dealers in BC unfortunately. The most you'll be able to get a discount will be around $1,000 max.

Hmmm...I do recall the salesperson telling me he could offer me $1,500 off of an IS350 (I didn't tell him I was actually interested in the IS-F).

Well, I'm not one for bartering back and forth. I'll just stop by when this weather finally improves and just go for a test drive. The only thing I'm kind of hesitating on is the fact that I'll be without an all-wheel-drive car for the time being.

Anyway, thanks for the input.

There are a couple of 08's in Edmonton for $7,000 to $10,000 off. I was going to buy one but...I chose the dark side.

Wow, those are serious discounts. Thanks for the heads up.

But what did you end up getting? An M3?

I've ordered a C63...February build. I'm a little nervous since I haven't owned a german car since 2006 (2002 BMW 540i). I hope this one treats me better!

When I got my 2009 IS-F in September I paid full list price. I didn't even get a free coffee mug! I also went to Regency on Burrard.

I don't know for sure, but I would think there might be a bit more wiggle room now considering the type of market we are in. Being right after Christmas, I doubt there are many people car shopping.

You should be in Ontario cuz they are giving pretty big discounts on ISF right now. I have seen them up to 10G off 08's. I just bought my IS350 2 months ago but I am looking at getting into an ISF now lol

But don't forget you guys also have to pay PST in your provinces.

Sebring, I don't know if you recall, but when we were looking at C63 prices at mbworld, in ontario with taxes it was significantly more expensive, which would obviously be the same in BC.

It might be worth your time to come pick one up here in Ab if they won't discount enough out there including the tax? Enjoy a nice drive home and get the break out period out of the way all in one shot.

I paid 64,000.00 total, that's with all taxes in. but Canadian prices have much more of a mark-up then American.
