I got $325 under invoice (Invoice price with free window tint), which is $2925 under MSRP.
Lexus has removed factory holdback (was 2%), so there is less markup than in previous model years. I was told that they did this so the MSRP wouldn't go up.
Anyway, I'm happy enough...

Lease or puchase?
Incentives?

On the East Coast I'm gettting next to nothing in terms of offers.
One dealer did tell me that he could get me a great deal if I lease a 2013 instead of buying one.
Sirens went off in my mind when I heard that, way to many different numbers and variables in a lease for them to shift money around IMO.
I can hear him now.
Here you go 2500 off MSRP, and then he adjusts some of the other lease numbers to make up for the savings and take 1000k or more back.
Have anyone straight out purcahsed a Lexus at a heavy discount? That way I know that I'm not on a goose chase here.

Thats a great price for a purchase here on the east Coast.
I think I can get that if I work for it here on the east coast as well, but so far I have had 0 shot at getting more than 1k.
Like I said in a previous post, I did get a offer for a bigger discount, if I came in and did a lease.
Sounds like money shifting around IMO

Just drove by my dealership. Stopped and looked at what was available. There were a lot of 2012 RX's. More than their normal inventory level (perhaps gearing up for Memorial Day Event - tent present). Many of the cars had little tags in them like $5,000 off or $368/mo lease. I have to believe that there are some incredible deals on these remaining 2012's. It would not surprise me if a few people were picking these up at $6,000 - $7,000 off. My guess is that the incentives on the 2013's will not show up until these 2012's are depleted. At that point, I would think there would be good deals on 2013's. I wouldn't have any problem offering them invoice on a 2013 now.
If anyone is shopping, I was at Pleasanton Lexus here in the SF Bay Area.
Edit: Just got an email from Pleasanton Lexus. They say that they want to sell 50 cars in the next 7 days ... Memorial Day Event. The email offer for RX350's: AT LEAST $5,000 off (their words), plus $1,000 loyalty discount (if qualify), plus 0.0% financing (limited term). My reading of the sale is that you can probably get $7,000 off with zero percent financing.

I got $6,500 off my 2010 450h when I purchased it in 2010. Timing is important if you are looking for bigger discounts. Timing is good for 2012's right now. I am unsure about what is going on with 2013's.

No love for the east coast
0.9 or 0 percent financing for a rx2012 is a steal.
Lexus is using the interest rates to drive 2-4k more of a price difference between the 2012 and the 2013.
So while on face value it seems like the 2013 is only 2 to 4 thousand more than a 2012, Lexus is making it even a better deal by allowing the buyer to save a additional 2-4 thousand in interest.
Which expands the differences between the 2012 and 2013 for some buyers from 2-4 k to 4-8k over the life of a 60 month finance.

Not sure about that bc the 2012, are getting the better lease deals bc of interest rate and other ratios, thats what the dealer told me.
SO in interest you could be paying 2k or more less because of the interest rate.
