Dang I need hookups too... Now all I need to do is become good buddies with a GM at either a Lexus, BMW, or Infiniti dealership because I like the IS, 3 series, and G35/G37 and new Ex coming out. Then, I can get a good hookup.

I test drove an is 350. I loved the pickup and power on it. The only thing I hated was the leg room for rear passengers. Great car though! Congrats!

Im not mad at the new I.S. I would've gotten one but the interior just felt too cramp for me.

me and my dad played a few dealerships off each other, and looked up invoice on the car. the only way we buy things is if we can steal it, i don't like paying a premium on things that will depreciate alot once i drive it off the lot, i would rather have the upper hand on it and be out ahead of the game or as much as i can.

Yeah...the IS is nice but it's too little room in the back seat and not nearly enough power...and for the same price as a loaded IS250 AWD (41k MSRP ---> Invoice 36k) I got my TL-S for 36k

And just in case anyone is wondering...you don't need any hookups to get invoice pricing on these type of cars now-a-days....You just have to work the dealers as AS3 said by going to each and getting them to lower so to beat the previous dealer ...I just dealt with 2 dealers and was offered Invoice: $41,7xx on a new 07 MDX Sport

If you guys need someone to buy / negotiate car pricing, I do provide these services

PM me if interested

mainly because of the awd, i drive around 100 miles or more a day and i do live in the northeast traveling in RI and MA daily, so when it comes to the winter months i don't want to risk getting stuck in the snow. i love the 350, so much power, but also insurance would rape me a little more and the 350's around me are a bit harder to get a hold of and they really aren't budging to much on price. plus with the HIDs and the little add ons it would have been another 5K on the loan about. it's got some go and as i said before these cars are underrated from the factory.

hopefully if things go well this month, rims (Work Varianze(sp?) TS1's in silver or black chrome), factory lip kit, and tint may be on before the end of the month, just got to work for it.
