Re: ?'s on leasing [Car_man]
Written by: ncee on May 17, 2011 3:54:54 AM
So purchasing outright seems to make the most sense for me. I hadn't paid much attention (Driving to damn much), but my 2008 Avalon (purchased 10/2009) has 65,000+ miles on it, in just over 16 months, and a few long trips coming up. I guessing at this rate, I'll have about 85 - 90,000 miles on it when it turns 2 years old. WAY to many miles per year to lease ... Read More

New Avalon or 2007 LS?
Written by: ncee on May 6, 2011 4:15:23 AM
Ok, so they aren't the same car, but here's what I'm up against. I put on 35,000+- miles a year, my 2008 Avalon Touring edition (Purchased in 2009) has 65,000+ miles on it. my local Toyota dealer is offering me a 2011 Avalon Limited Edition in Pearl White at a very good price, and now a friend is offering her 2007 Lexus LS 460 with 42,000 miles on it for about ...

In September 2009, as the 2010 were about to arrive, I paid $900 under invoice for a 2009 LS460 at Lexus of N. Miami Beach. I searched the "net" for the dealer with the most LS 460's left over. They had 34.

LS 460 Recall
Written by: dcwalker on Jul 14, 2010 11:57:36 AM
Have had my 2007 LS in many times for this problem. They always give me the same answer. No service bulletins and nothing shows on their computer. Cannot duplicate the problem. Evidently, they have known it was a problem for a long time. Foreign material? Who are they trying to kid. These are valve springs, not fuel injectors. Isn't it interesting that they will not recall 2009/10 LS models. When exactly ... Read More

Are you talking about a 2009 LS 460, or a 2006 LS 430? Or is it a used 430 that you are buying in 2009?

Just picked up the car yesterday at noon. Bought it at Lexus of North Miami Beach, from a good guy I'd recommend highly, Harry Faitelson.

I just bought a 2009 LS SWB, RWD. Sticker was $66,034 I paid $58, 800. You can easily take off around 10% off the sticker. I am in Maryland and bought the vehicle from a dealer in Manmouth, New Jersey. Big dealer with lots of inventory. My local dealer in Maryland was selling me a used 2008 model with 13, 500 miles for the same price. SK

Hi eclipse2. Let's work up a sample lease payment on this car and see what we come up with. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a base (aka 2WD SWB) 2009 Lexus LS 460 that has an MSRP of $75,544 and a selling price of $68,500 through Lexus Financial Services right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year, your zero down, pre-tax monthly payment would be ...

Some interesting information from Automotive news, particularly in regards to the SUVs: IS: "A convertible was expected to debut when the coupe arrived. But Lexus is worried that its planned convertible may not succeed in a world of hard-top convertibles. The model may be sent back to the drawing board, forcing a delay. Lexus executives downplay reports of a V-8, saying the big engine would kill the car's handling - not ... Read More

Re: LS 460 should be priced head-to-head with germans [stevekilburn]
Written by: ljflx on Aug 11, 2006 6:32:59 PM
Steve, MSRP pricing is all about what is standard on the car. An LS 430 ultra at $72K is very similar to a loaded SWB A8 already. Lexus is entering a broad test pricing phase right now - when you think about it - and they are not about to leave any customers at the altar. So you'll see prices range from $65-67K for a moderately equipped SWB LS to around ... Read More
