There is no need to pay MSRP on an LS460 any more. There are plenty of cars in dealer inventory and they are not selling that fast. To get an idea of what one smaller LA dealer has in stock, go to www.lexusofcerritos.com. I just checked a few minutes ago and they had 17 in stock, with about half SWB and half LWB models.
Any dealer that wants a premium over sticker and doesn't even have any in stock is just a small time dealer that doesn't deserve your attention.

Forget about threatning and all that. Just walk away. It's a simple "thanks, but no thanks" approach. As soon as you step out the door someone will chase you and when that happens, ask for a 5K discount over regular MSRP and walk away again.

How much did you guys paid for your car? My local sales guy said the typical BS "there is a waiting list on these cars and we dont offer discounts off MSRP!" I laughed and walked out. this is in newport news VA

black on black. $72k MSRP. $3,700 under MSRP + license + tax. this is at Longo Lexus.
of course, there is always B.S. all 3 dealers (including Longo) we went to, said there are very few LS in stock. They all say that, so you will feel better paying MSRP. Costco's price was $2k below MSRP. we knew we could get a little more than that.

I bought one of the first cars and they only took $1K off MSRP. They also gave me a free set of all weather mats and wired my radar detector. I've only purchased 5 cars from them. At that time, they weren't offering discounts.

Dealerships love building a sense of urgency in the customer to help facilitate irrational decisions. Once they realize you're laughing at them (and not with them), things tend to go differently.
