That's what I'd like to start with. I'm not sure if that's too low and they'd scoff at my offer. I get they won't go with it right off the bat. But I was wonder if asking for that is too ambitious.

OTD: $41,500

We travelled to NC from GA to get this deal . Few of my friends were able to price match with local dealers and got the same discount but on a base car with no options. We could have done better if we waited until the last few days of the year but wife got restless and agreed to this.
This person got 15.1% off MSRP

The thing to remember is that the RX450h is only 10-12% of RX sales, so the availability is less and in my experience, the discount is less. I was shopping on the last day of Dec to Remember, at the year-end sale and dealers weren't budging on the hybrid price. I certainly asked for 11-12%, but didn't find anyone going near there on a hybrid. I think the word the sales reps were using was "crazy" but that's just puffery, too. So I think it unlikely to get those 13-15% discounts regularly. Anecdotally, it seems more hybrid owners pay slightly above invoice and more non-hybrid owners pay slightly less than invoice. Now, I wasn't shopping for a 350 at the same time, so it's a little hard to compare. On the plus side, the F-sport has a lot of cool expensive features, so you may find more wiggle room, there are some great F-sport deals listed here.

You're welcome. Two of the most common model around here are:

MSRP: 56,109
Dealer: 53,609
with 20:" wheels, accessory package and touch free rear door.
and
MSRP: 56,717
Dealer: 54,018
with 20" wheels, accessory package, touch free rear door, cross bars, all weather floor liners and cargo tray

The website numbers from Consumer Reports are pretty close. I tried to build the second one and got MSRP of 56,552 and Invoice of 54,107.

I paid 6.1% under MSRP, for a hard-to-find fully optioned 2016 RX450h F Sport in the exact colors I wanted back in April. This is under invoice. The deals exist if you make them exist. There were only 4 or so queued up for production or on the lots in my exact specification.

I did it guys... took about eight hours (started at lunch finished at closing), but I got a RX450H F-Sport. Fully loaded and even has HUD (something I had an incredibly hard time finding).

MSRP: $63259
Dealer: $58500 (~7.5%)

Thank you all sincerely for the help and guidance!

Good job, that's a great deal. Congrats on the new car and post some pics when you have a chance.

If willing to travel to Atlanta, that's the hot market. Contact Justin Balcer at Nalley Lexus (jbalcer@nalleycars.com). I just got home from my day of flying out to ATL and driving back home with my wife's new RX350. 14% off MSRP. I was about to start taking Justin's quoted price (extremely good) to Lexus of Arlington in IL since they claim they'll beat any quoted sale price by $250, combine with lower dealer fees, would be even more savings. However the wife was getting mad I was still trying to haggle, and just wanted me to close, ha!

Offered 3.7% off msrp off $54K for a rx350 awd with navigation, premium, blis, etc.
But this is very casual talk with the local dealer with no further shopping around.
Think I can do better...

Default This a good deal

Hi Everyone. Finally leaving BMW. Could I have your input on this offer?
2017 Rx 350 AWD
MSRP: $57,359
Dealer asking: $52,500
Out the door $58,620
That's only about 6.3% off MSRP. Should i try to push it down?
I'm the the Bay Area (CA)
Thank you for any input.

Are you financing or paying cash.. Why not buy from Justin at Nally Lexus. He will be very agressive and ship the car to you for $800 shipping charges. When I was looking he was $4000 better,
