Default Went to Westminster Lexus yesterday, and this is what i saw.....

So I go to Westminster Lexus because my wife likes the new RX Fsport. I get to talking to the salesman and he says "Hey you seem like a car guy, you'll like what I have in the back" so we walk through a couple doors and go back in the shop, and there sits this $550,000 LFA Nurburgring Edition. I was speechless. It was love at first sight.

Tell them you heard they were hiding it in back. They had the red one on the show room floor. This car looked great with the red and black interior.

It least they're not trying to rip you off too much. Bob Rohrman in Chicago is tryling to sell his standard yellow LF-A for 650,000. Whatever happened to not price gouging?

The red one belongs to the dealership owner..I got to sit in it. =) Kerry from the parts & service department had pics of the black lfa unloading a couple days back...I think they are not "hiding" it per say ..it's already sold... The generous owner is behind my head.

The salesman said the general manager ordered it for himself, but he might not keep it for himself and might be up for sale.

Thanks for the update Brad. LOL the GM?!? That place must pay fairly well for the GM to purchase something like that...

Nice car but certainly not worth that kind of $$$$

GM is smart, he ordered it to make a profit - I don't think they pay that well....

GMs easily make over 100k and a dealer like Westminster Lexus where they move a lot of cars, I wouldn't be surprised if he made over $150k...but I don't think making that much is enough to drive a $400/500k car.
