The selling prices of lease vehicles are negotiable, just as if you were paying cash for or financing them. Here is the information about the lease program that you requested.

Lexus GX 470 Maintenance and Repair

Mine was under warranty when I finally brought it in for service. Our 2005 grinded when closing after about a year of use. As we are more likely to pop it, rather than fully open it, I delayed the service until this summer. Apparently there is a tremendous amount of labor involved to expose the motor and wiring. They had it almost the whole weekend. Thankfully in my ... Read More...

2007/ 2008 GX470 Xenon Headlights

Written by: superacid on Feb 16, 2008 11:34 AM

I have searched and found nothing regarding xenon headlights and 2007 / 2008 GX 470 models. I know the SUVs dont have the option but there are aftermarket kits. Questions- has anyone successfully converted the halogen headlights to HIDs? What kit did you use (website)? Were there any difficulties (drilling, issues with the daytime running lights...etc) that ... Read More...

Written by: breiman on Feb 13, 2008 00:41 AM

Hi Redroza, Just to compare apples:apples, did your new Lexus have the Preferred Access Pkg (mats, wheel locks) or Towing Prep Pkg? Saw a Vehicle Inquiry Report for a 2008 GX 470 and those little accessories add just under $200 to the invoice price. Read More...

Re: 2008 GX 470 [berisky]

Written by: Car_man on Oct 11, 2007 03:56 AM

Hi berisky. The truck that you described has a whopping spread of over $6,500 between its MSRP and its dealer invoice price. The $5,500 discount that you negotiated on the specific unit that you are interested in is a pretty reasonable price. It is probably equivalent to around $1,000 over invoice. Just make sure that the dealer that you are working with uses Lexus ... Read More...
