A friend has a 3007 LS460 in excellent condition..(and it really is)
every option pretty much except the self parking...(useless anyway)
34,000 miles....

$40,000

so the question is, for the same price.....

The LS460 is a beauty. The real question in this situation is if you are willing to give up the warranty sooner on the Lexus. In your situation, I would not.

The Genesis is a great car but the $40K LS460 is a better deal with the low mileage you note.

 

[moose66]

I'd take the "3007" Lexus in a heartbeat. Not that I anticipate having issues with my Hyundai, but the Lexus is a proven machine and for that price, w/low mileage is a steal in my opinion. I would ask the owner, friend or foe, to allow me to have the vehicle inspected at an authorized Lexus dealership. Unless they provide every single maintenance record. Even though we are talking close friends, in the end it is still 40K!

If anyone has access to USAA "car search" function.
They are pricing 3.8 with Tech at ~36,000 final. (no taxes and other stuff)

Any Think Tank members here? Hyundai announed Associate Pricing for us/them. Don't know the details, but the description says "under invoice".

 

[Dimitry]

Last I pulled an APP quote, it was 37336 + the destination charge of 750. It is a nice hassle-free way to get a good pricing, however you can often times haggle even under that price.

This is the current APP structure:

Dealer Invoice
Less 2% of MSRP
Less Current Consumer Rebate (if any)
Less Advertising Fee
Plus Freight

Happy Hunting!

Just leased my second Genesis, think I did well with this deal.

2010 Platinum 4.6 with Tech Package

15000 miles 36 month lease
$482 monthly tax included
$1800 out of pocket

Really like the difference of the V8 and the Tech package. My last Genesis was a V6 with Premium Plus

Dealer is 3 miles from my house.

There should be no discussion about the price given by USAA. If the dealer does not honor that price USAA quotes you, they want to hear about it.

Fitzgerald Hyundai in White Flint MD. Already plugged them in a couple of other posts.

2011 3.8 with Tech and Nav (and iPod cable)

List: $41,835

Out the door: $40,000 cash (includes 6.25% sales tax and everything else)

The $1500 competitive rebate (current BMW owner) was assigned back to dealer - I feel a little cheated on this as they didn't tell me I qualified for it until we struck the deal at $40,000. My fault, though.

Hi,

On October 15, I bought a 2010 4.6 with tech, cab red/saddle. Sticker $43385 (ipod cable, etc). The car was a "demo" with 14,216 miles. I paid $28,406. I also traded my 2001 Avalon (156,000 miles). I got $2500 for that car, making my final cost out of pocket $25906, plus tax and fees. I'm in New Jersey.

What do you think? In any event, it wouldn't be a good deal if I didn't like the car, but so far I'm loving life...
