Default Looking to purchase my first lexus, need some opinions

This will be the first lexus im looking to get. I was able to put a deposit down to gaurantee the car when it launches. Now my question is I am looking to lease this vehicle with 36 months term with 12,000 miles. The model I was looking at is basically f-sport fully loaded and was quoted probably around $55,000 for the vehicle. I can't seem to find a clear answer as far as what pricing im looking to pay on a monthly basis with no money down with tier 1 credit score (Ball park figure would work, I've gotten price ranges of $650-$800). Looking to get some advice from any owners on here who has history of leasing with lexus. For those who has experience I would just like a ball park figure of what I should be paying. Thank you!

The lease payments will not be pretty when the RX finally launches...new models usually have higher rates for the first few months due to the "higher demand" for the cars, and I wouldn't expect anything different since the RX is so popular. Dealers tend to try and make something extra. I'm thinking $650+ range here in SoCal, and probably a bit more in PA ($700+). I would wait several months or next model year if you want significantly lower payments, not to mention little bugs worked out.

Thanks for the first response and as I thought the payment will be much higher because most likely there won't be any special leasing program for that car at launch. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I do want to confirm if this is true, I was told by the salesman that the leasing payment will depend on the residual value of the car and that value is determined by lexus and is universal throughout all lexus dealers. Can anyone confirm this?

Thank you again, I just don't want to end up paying more than I should be.
