Lexus: Any Info on 2005 LS430's

Buy now or wait... the annual Fall car buying question.


I don't know what the feature differences are, but if you buy now, you
might save a -little- but probably not a lot. This isn't a Chevy we're
talking about. If you buy now, you will be paying "new" price for last
year's model. That would bother me, LS430s depreciate 18% avg the first
yr. so can you save 18% by buying now? Probably not. 18% of $70 large
(fully loaded) is $12,600. If you buy now, you will miss out on next
year's goodies. If you buy now, your NAV system database will be last
years'. Buy now and your title will say 2004. How badly do you want a
"new" Lexus vs how willing are you to spend all that money only to come
away from the deal with a year-old car? What is the time value of money?

Personally, at the price point in question, I'm pretty sure if I could
afford it at all that I'd be reaching for the brass ring. Wait for the new
one.
