Default Need some negotiation advice

Hey everyone,

I have narrowed my search down to 3 LS 460's....the asking price is $39995...I offered one dealership $35K..and he came back with $39500..WTF.

Anyways...whats your guys approach...with the 2010's still sitting on the lot...is it highly unlikely that I can get 5K off asking?

These are all 07 460L's with about 40K miles on them.

Let me know your thoughts.

Was your offer of $35k a drive-out price (inclusive of tax, tag, title, etc)?

An 07-L for $40k seems a little on the cheap side to me already. Are these CPO cars?

Sounds like you need to get a broker to go to the auction and find you one on the cheap. $35k is wholesale.

where would one find a broker to go to an auction to find a LS460L w/rear seat upgrade package, PCS, etc? I am in San Diego...willing to go anywhere in CA or AZ if the price is right.

Thumbs up 07 ls 460 swb

I got mine in February. Sticker price was 43,500, and internet price was $39,995. I started my negotiation at $36,500 and ended up at a purchase price of $37K plus tax & license. Overall, I feel pretty satisfied with that price, it's an awesome car! Good luck!
