Very close to the deal Viper TT bought his for. Hector (From Hoffman Lexus) was a nice fella to deal with as well. But in all fairness if the deal with Hector had fallen through, I would have bought one from Doug Greenup from Lexus of Dayton, He is also a really nice guy whom knows these cars from top to bottom! He is a car guy to boot, which is a great feature to possess if you are a car salesman!

Lexus had a $5K incentive on ALL remaning NEW 2008 IS-F's.. from January to June... NOT sure if the "special" is still active for July..
So basically if you know the MSRP of a nicely equipped 08' IS-F is, $61,500 and the dealer invoice is $54,500....
YOU can geat an extra $5k off and pay $49,500 plus Tax, Title & Lic fees for an IS-F.
Numbers used are just rounded examples.. But just about right on the money..

Yuppers, technically you can get it cheaper than $49,500 and its not unheard of either if you do your research, I've heard of as low as high 47s low 48s for a new 08 isF. I just couldnt negotiate too aggressively when I got my car cause i was at the dealers mercy mainly cause they did a courtesy trade for me for free. I sold my car to my buddy and we did all the paperwork at the Lexus dealer, by doing that I dont have to pay off my car to sell it to my buddy and I get full tax credit for my trade in and my buddy could finance my car through the dealership, A courtesy trade is basically me trading in my car and the dealer sells it to the buyer that I have for my car, for the exact same price. Technically the dealer is losing money on it cause of all the "paperwork" they have to go through for no profit. But they sold the leftover 08 IsF so its a win win situation for them.

Thanks guys. I'm stongly considering trading in my 350 for the F. I talked to the dealer yesterday and they wanted $51,500 for the F, plus I wasn't getting too much for my trade in, so I didn't do it and am trying to do more research.
I'm gonna try to find one for $49,500 and also see if I can get more for my trade in.
