Default Pricing on RX350 2010

Hi, I am planning to purchase a brand new RX. I live in Brooklyn NY, does anyone know a good dealer I can talk to and what's the OTD price I should be expecting? (Luxury Package)

if you want to know what others are paying for so you can get a good target negotiating price, try websites like carsdirect.com or edmunds and they will tell you what incentives (if any) are in your area plus what others are paying

Ray Catena in Mamonth NJ quoted me a price of 40500 on a 44500 car. Would have bought from them but found another good deal in Florida. Dealer here(Louisiana) wanted
MSRP so wife and I took a road trip.

In NE areas, Lux pkg seems rare and hard to get it. It's about 1% of RX350 having Lux pkg. Since it's not common, you may get hard time to find it then negotiate the huge discount out of it.

You should try to call all the Lexus dealers in NYC areas and ask for the quotes.

gas and eating out @$425. Staying with friends in Destin right on the beach,

Lux package is very common in NYC, I would say 70-80% of the RX loaded with that.

Am I wrong? Are we talking about 2010 RX350 AWD in NYC?

Out of total 300+ 2010 RX350 AWD, I was only seeing a few RX10 with Lux pkg when searching in April.

If I could get RX with Lux pkg and without the rear ent pkg, I would definitely buy it.

Just want to confirm, Lux pkg has below:

Prem pkg
semi-aniline leather-trimmed interior
wood and leather trimmed steering wheel and shift ****
front seat power cushion extender
LED-illuminated front door sills

19" 7-spoke alloy wheels
Headlamp washers
Power-folding outside mirrors
Wide-view side monitor


Those 5 highlighted features are most significant. It should be easy to figure out if this RX10 has Lux pkg or not.

here is an issue--I am looking to get a 450--teh early 450s are not being built with lux package--or so i heard from that dealer letter we saw elsewhere.

so I have a 450 on order with the lux pkg--if for some reason they get one in the interim with equip I want--I can take it--as the car that was ordered is fairly well exquiped except no rear seat entertainment.

Would you give me the name and address of the dealer in Florida that you purchased from (along with salesmans name) and what the MSRP was and what you actually paid? I am assuming that you did not have a trade.

Thank you
