Anyone getting Discount?

If I had to guess, I suspect I would have gotten about a $3K discount if I really wanted it. However, I know the discounts will be bigger as the inventory continues to pile up.

WEll if everyone quite buying the new LS the prices would come down really quick!! I would never pay full price. These cars are going to fall like rocks at the sale. Thats when i am going to pick one up. 13K mark up is just way to much.

Dude -- don't you realize, "if you build it, they will come"?
Seriously, I think there are a LOT of BMW + Mercedes owners (like me) who've never considered a Lexus in the past, but who are sick and tired of the German Uber-Sedan Ownership Experience. LS sales are not cooling off anytime soon, IMHO...

My dealer called me again this week to tell me that they had the exact car I wanted in stock. He also mentioned that the December Sales event has started early, and they now have more attractive financing on the cars than they previously had. The original lease quote I got was $1540/month based on an MSRP of $85,947. The new lease quote was $1,437. That still seems high to me. He said they would be willing to do a "small" discount, which will likely be in the $2,000 range. I don't think I want to pay that much though. If the invoice is only around $74K, I can't imagine paying more than $80K.
I think it's only a matter of time before they have quite a few of these sitting around in the showrooms.

They will never have many of them in the showroom, however depending on dealer and their situation, they might offer some MSRP.
Smaller dealers usually dont give discounts ever. Larger dealers do, just to get your business.
Best bet is dealers with internet sales dept which will give you discounts just to get out of area business that they wouldnt get otherwise.
It is really dealer per dealer scenario, if they need to sell something quick to move other cars, meet their targets, etc, etc....

My dad & uncle just each bought one (a lwb silver/bk & a regular silver/gray at tustin ca). 1500 off msrp on each car 11/17/06. 5.99 interest rate fo 4yrs no prepaid fee. The cars each had about $8000 in upgrades. It took all day to get the discounts.

My salesman called me and offered a 3K discount off a 72K MSRP sticker, car is in stock, my colors and options. I told him I have lost interest in the LS460 because of the way I was treated when I went into the show room 1 month ago. How was I treated? When I asked for a discount they laughed at me, and when I say laugh I mean hysterically and that reaction really got under my skin. Well that's fine, they can laugh till the sun goes down but they will not have the pleasure of depositing any more of my money in the bank. This is the way I was treated after purchasing around 10 cars in the last 15 years from JM Lexus. Not only have they lost my business because of their greed but several more sales they made by me telling my clients to buy from JM Lexus. Now they can laugh till it hurts.... 10K profit on a car is nothing but pure greed. BTW, you should see the 30 millon dollar yacht the owner of JM Lexus owns. It's fine to make a profit, but don't spat in my face while doing so.

I did a lil traveling to get my car you can too.
There are many cool Lex dealers. If you want to keep the hometown dealer, Take the sales manager to task, tell him you love to call talk radio stations (His Customer Demographic) and you'd like to say you got a good deal, not that you got pissed off or on. If he's still an asshull, go to a better dealer, many folks here will point you to good reps.
PS: Your local Mercedes Benz dealer hooks to MORE than $10k per S model and some other models are WAY WAY more than 10k.
Based on the qualilty of my recently shoved off Q45, Nissan is grossing out too.
If you sell 350 Fords a month you can chip off a $400 profit car. If you sell 30-50 cars a month you have less per unit to polish the Cherry wood walls.
