Sounds like a good deal to me! Although it never hurts to try for lower or get free services up to a certain mileage. Welcome to the club!
The New Guy
Hello Family,
After weeks of researching and test driving mercedes e350's, bmw's audi's and infiniti's I ran into Lexus.. Not only did they provided the BEST customer service but they also provided the BEST OVERALL Vehicle! The Lexus ISF. I entered the dealership expecting to test drive the GS350 but from the moment i seen the ISF (when i first walked through the door) I fell in love with it. I never seen a vehicle that sent chills through my body by just looking at it. I have never heard of the ISF prior to entering the Lexus dealership!! I asked the dealer what kind of car is that and he said its the F..I asked.. what does the F stands for? and he said..Forever....Once you get behind the wheel..you will want to drive it forever..From the moment i sat in the driver-side of the vehicle; I knew that my decision has been made. This car rides smooth but it can change attitudes with the snap of a finger! (or push of the pedal) Like A Gemini.
So. I've been doing some research on this vehicle and i've decided that I'm going to go with the 2008 model because of the price tag. I came a cross a 2008 ISF Smoky Granite, One owner, carfax buyback certified with 13000mi, factory warranty w/extended option for 42500.00
My brothers and sisters.. Is this a good deal? Help is needed

Welcome to the forum. 42.5 sounds about right. Not a smokin deal, but it does sound good. Of course, you do have to offer less, just out of principal. You should still be able to get it down a bit more. That would be my guess.
Good luck. Let us know how it goes.

You're gonna have some fun carving up the road to Hana! (just noticed you were in Hawaii)
Welcome to the forum.
I had a similar experience. I went into the dealer to get SC info and saw the F in the middle of the show room. It called to me like a hooker at the Bunny Ranch...

Thanks Family
Thank you Family,
As you guys advised me. I held off and found another one. This one is black/black interior w/13000 mi.w/ warranties/ Along with the following modifications: PPE Headers, low beam and fog HIDs, WALD Spoiler and some type of clear layer over the front bumper in order to keep sand off or something? I Talked the guy down to 40000 but he took the vehicle to the shop to have the factory headers put back on.
I think this is the one. Brothers and Sisters; Please let me know what u think?

That sounds like a good deal. Black on black in a hot area is something to take into consideration. But that does sound like a good deal.
That car is in Arizona and you're in HawaiiThank you Family,

I've seen it. It was the prototype car for PPE. I have the second set. Too bad they're being removed, they're a great product. I luv mine.Lou
I'm currently home (new orleans) on military leave. I'll be back in hawaii on june 5th. Vehicle shipping through the government is free. Yep the PPE's was removed. I'm so excited about the car. The paper work has been started!!! AND I WILL POST PICS!!! I WISH there was parking sensors......I wounder how much would it cost to get then installed?
So.....after starting the PAPERWORK...The guy decided not to sale the car and decided to sell it to a dealer for a trade in instead...........back to the drawing board.
Bummer - keep trying....The guy decided not to sale the car and decided to sell it to a dealer for a trade in instead.....
That sucks. Oh well there are more out there, you just have to find the right one. Good luck
I have two to choose from. 2008 Red Color w/Black interior w/sensors and headlight washers 10200 miles 42000 or
Black w/Black interior w/sensors 20200 mi for 28500.
Both have clean car fax 1 owner cars but the black one had Paint sealant/fabric guard installed and a window replaced.
What do you guys think?

I'd be all over the 28500, hell of a deal and maybe even a little suspicious
I feel that way also. I will ask the dealer to let me take it to lexus to get that 155pt inspection or a carchex inspection. If he wont allow it then I wont buy.I'd be all over the 28500, hell of a deal and maybe even a little suspicious
$28,500--Wow that is low. I'd be a little suspicious too. It is a smokin good deal if nothing is wrong with it.
Okay.. this is it!..fresh from the lexus dealer..2008 Silver, CPO, 8211mi, w/every option 1 owner 43,000. I just sent the payment for hold.
I like it. Low miles is great. Let us know when you take delivery.
Good deal and I hope this one works out for you. Did you get someong to pull the knife out of your back on that last deal. Damn, last minute stabbing on that one huh.
Anyways, good luck, you will love it.
