Hi Akiho-Yoshizawa,
Great to hear you had a great test drive, but sorry to hear of the treatment by the Sales Manager. Where I bought mine it was the finance manager that was difficult to deal with, but everyone else was great. The car color is great. Have you thought about going though AAA car buying service to get your car? When I was looking for mine I went to AAA, and unfortunately they could get anything off as the car was so new. My sales consultant told me that if I waited about 4-5 months he could have gotten the same car with the same options for about 5K less. The best part is you only deal with AAA and not the dealer sales people or their PITA finance department, etc. No pressure at all, and the AAA Sales Consultant will find the car you want, have it delivered to their location, and you go to AAA to test drive and buy the car if you want it. Just a thought. I bought 3 cars through AAA, 2 new and 1 used, and it was painless and a breeze. |
Great review and that last bit of information you provided is the big take away, too many folks are quick to jump into a purchase like this but patience pays off big time.
And there couldn't be a better time than now to exercise all of what you said as information to support it is that much more available now! on this forum! |
Hi, RC350 Forum Members. How are you? This is my 2nd test drive in the RC F and I was fortunate enough to drive exactly what I wanted with every single option that I wished for. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed on how I was treated at Keyes Lexus in Van Nuys, CA.

They Provided me with great customer service!!! I even wrote a review about their great costumer service on google. They always try to play their games on you... They offered me to pay $680 per month on a lease... 10k miles, $3,000 out of pocket, and a trade in of $3,000.00 for my 07 Camry... seriously... that would be 6K down and still $680 per month... At the end of the day I got what i wanted and I was very happy. You know what you want and what you are willing to pay. Don't play their games next time. Just go in there and ask for what you want!!! |
Hi Akiho-Yoshizawa,
My Dad was a used car salesman, yea I know ![]() If you going to buy it is better to have your own financing, which is what I did, and it ticked off the Finance department. [B]Have you tried PenFed Credit Union as it is open to Veterans[/B,] and you get a killer interest rate? I got 2.49%, and it is a bit lower now for a 60 month note. They might even do leasing. Going through the dealer for credit is not the best move as they get kickbacks for using in-house financing. Good for them, not for you as you don't get the best deal. Even if leasing you are still paying a rate. Having you financing before hand also shows the dealer you are serious. If you are going to lease you might be stuck dealing with the dealer, and that is where it gets tricky, and you have to have the time to deal with the smiley faces they draw. LOL... One good tactic if negotiations break down is just get up and leave. Tell them if they want to make a deal to call you. They are more likely to make a really good deal if you are buying then leasing. I do understand the need to lease when you are wanting a $40K-$70K vehicle to get smaller payments, and not everyone keeps their vehicle for a long time anymore. Let me know if I can be of any other help. ![]() |
