  1. Beetler, Just go to Edmunds.com or direct click here. You should be able to price it out. I'd say 5% over invoice is a good deal on special order, try to aim for that or better.
  2. Did a little searching on the forums and found this dealer, looks like high volume and located maybe 3-4 hr drive from Orlando, so hoping I'll be able to get good deal on special order. Will post results here, wish my dealer in Orlando was not being so rude with their refusal to special order except for a loaded IS350 at MSRP. And they told me they couldn't special order anything except a loaded IS350 due to Lexus' factory rules, which from reading various posts here seems like total bs as special orders are possible and just require a little paperwork and waiting. Just kinda frustrated with em I guess, ah well someone else will get my order. Anyways, the dealer in south FL: http://www.jm-lexus.com/ Also read in another thread this dealer will cut a fair deal, further from FL but I'll drive a state or two if I have to :P http://nitra.lexusdealer.com/johnson-durham
  3. Does anyone know a dealer that will work special orders at a fair price? Don't mind a decently long drive to get the car I'd like at a fair price.
  4. Thanks for the replies, I was not even sure Lexus did custom orders as my dealer claimed they do not. If it is possible to custom orders that is good news, I'll just have to shop around until I find the right dealer. :) Will definitely try and get them to search nationwide inventory also. Thanks again for the info! Kinda annoyed at my local dealer saying they could not custom order as the factory would not allow, should have just told me he would not allow it. (this was the sales manager talking)
  5. I'd like to buy an IS 250 with specific options (luxury package & navigation) for a fair price. My dealer mentioned they never get that configuration in stock without custom ordering. He said they WILL place a custom order, but only for an IS 350 LOADED (44k+ MSRP, 18", speaker upgrade, etc). He also said they cannot negotiate price at all on custom ordered cars, even with a hefty deposit. Should I call another dealership? Is it possible to get a custom order IS 250 with luxury package & navigation at a reasonable price (3k below MSRP)? Or was the dealership speaking the truth about having to order an IS 350 and pay MSRP? Please let me know, would love to buy an IS but this sounds odd and turns me off a bit from Lexus.
  6. Yah, my apologies I now have more info. It is available via the Luxury Package, my dealer just never gets that package apparently. The memory seats and rain sensing is pretty standard on many luxury cars, I'm surprised that the dealer does not have this feature standard.
  7. Hey guys, Great forum, I'm curious about seat memory (mirrors would be nice too but not as big of a deal) on the 2008 IS250. Really love memory for seat as my wife and I both use the car. I saw on the Lexus website under IS250 RWD specifications the Lexus Memory System is an option. Also on Edmunds it shows as part of the Luxury Plus Package it has 3 position seat memory stated in description. When I was at the dealer and he said the IS did not have seat memory. Anyone know what the story is? Would the car need to be factory ordered or something to add the feature? Much appreciated!
