Default Best price for RX 350 AWD

Hello Everybody,

I am planning to buy a RX 350 AWD and currently investigating where to buy, how much to pay and if there are any good deals.

I found TrueCar website. Which is amazingly helpful.
http://www.truecar.com?sourceId=xJS_...paignId=xJS_lx

Does anybody know other similar websites?
I thought that this would be a good place to ask this question. I am a female, and I just want to be VERY prepared when I go to the dealership.

Thanks in advance.

all depends on what options you're looking for. i'd say now is a pretty good time to buy, with the 2011s coming soon. you may try to wait till the end of the month for even better deals.

I looked at edmunds.com when I was pricing out mine. Most RXs come with certain packages/options according to geographical area. Mine was special order so I needed something to give me an idea of cost based on the options I chose. I liked how edmunds gave prices for each item next to what the dealer charges.

Have you tried to build your Lexus on their website? I'd take that and do side by side comparison with some of the other sites. Also, if you do a search here you can see what other people have paid for their RXs. It's a pretty popular topic. Good luck.

I think Truecar and Edmunds are the best. True car offers more information as far as how many people paid what price. There should be some good deals but, if you are looking for something specific you will have a harder time negotiating, especially with a thinner inventory. The dealer has you captive at that point.

you will probably also get a lower price if you buy one they already have on their lot, instead of forcing them to trade or special order one.

Default More Specifications.

Hello everybody, thank you for responses!
Ok, I am ready to be a little more specific.
I am located in North Hollywood, so the the best price I got in my area is $43,089. Which I think is great! It is 3,921 sticker price!
Is there any other discounts that I should know about?

Options:
PREMIUM PACKAGE: $2,400
BI-XENON HIGH INTENSITY DISCHARGE (HID) HEADLAMPS: $875
12-SPEAKER PREMIUM AUDIO SYSTEM: $110
NAVIGATION SYSTEM: $2465

I am doing it though TrueCar, I contacted the dealer with the lowest certified price. So we will see.

hitechgs3t,

Could you please share the dealership information, where you got your car for 42195+tax?

I did contact the dealer and the best they could do as I mentioned before is $43,089.

Another question, did you just went to the dealership, or you found them online first?

I don't want to guess if the price is good or not, I want to know for sure. I like websites like http://www.truecar.com/?sourceId=xJS...paignId=xJS_lx and Edmunds.com, where you can have an idea whats going in the sales world.
