I was wondering if this deal is to good to pass up.
2012 IS250 F-sport No Navigation
$39,283
$3539 off
1.9 APR


Can I get the price down anymore? They said this is invoice and they cant go any lower. Should I be happy with this. Any advice would be great!

Thanks =)

I think that is an awesome deal.

You can check Truecar. Hmm F-Sport with no-Nav seems like a non-standard build.

See if you can get a better deal since the mark up amount is about 8.5% off MSRP's price.

The selling price is 35,744. The vehicle price is 39,283. They are giving me some off..

not a good deal unless the prices have gone up about 5k from 2011...

check true car.com

The prices did go up a bit.

Looks like that is a good deal since it's about 8.5% off. Still would be better if you get the F-Sport one with NAV which would be the typical build unless you're specifically not wanting NAV.

@Sango- I dont want the NAV. I researched it and that is Invoice-do you think I can get better than invoice?

I was told by the dealer that 2012 models have 0.9% APR

I would say its a good deal IF it had navi but w/o it's only an ok deal. Try to go lower or get some free stuff out of them. Maybe the Fsport intake? (if it isn't equipped already)

depending where you are. here in socal i was able to get a quote on a new '12 f-sport IS350 for 2500 below invoice. typical invoice on that car is 41,xxx. so for 39,xxx you can get a IS350 f-sport. of course the quote was given to me over the phone, not sure if there's some hidden cost.

Thats not the invoice! I work for a Lexus dealership. What is the sticker price? The invoice is usually 10.5 percent off the sticker and then there is the Hold Back which is a dealer profit. The hold back is about 1300 on top of that 10.5 percent mark up. So just do the math.

It always amazes me how expensive cars are when I see these threads....

I could believe that on a 2011, but the only time it makes business sense to sell something for less than you pay for it is if you have money back from the manufacture to work with... There is currently around 3k from Lexus to play with on 2011 IS’s, but nothing on 2012's... Sadly some dealers will tell you anything on the phone to get you to come in. But realistically why would they lose money to sell you a car?

Depending on the options on the car.. TrueCar says in the Atlanta market:

"For the base model, the market average price for a new 2012 Lexus IS 350 is trending $1,555 below the manufacturer's sticker price. For the two available 2012 Lexus IS 350 trim lines, the average savings is 3.769% below the sticker price".

2011's have another $3k to play with from Lexus

jpaulmac---$39,283 is the sticker price
