Any good dealers for Lexus in socal?

Hey guys, currently in the market for an IS250. Anyone have a hookup on a dealer in socal? I would post this on CL but it's not as active as this forum. Thought someone could help me out a bit. Thanks in advanced!

A lot of people like Longo.

I hear a lot of bad things about Glendale, and the couple of times I've been to their parts department haven't been too good.

For service check out Luxury Motorworks in Monrovia. (http://www.luxurymotorworks.com/). It's run by a Lexus certified master technician who left longo to start his own business. You get the same service for a lot less money.

Lexus of Carlsbad. They seem to be very friendly when I take my mom's Lexus for a tune-up. I am a little skeptical of their car wash service since one time it looked like they did nothing.

+1 for Luxury Motorworks

I swore by them for all my major services (30, 60, 90k) when I had my IS300 and they are very open and friendly. They have a big window which looks out into the garage so you can watch you car getting worked on. They will even let you go out there and watch and ask questions.

As for dealers, I bought my old IS300 from Lexus of Westminster and found them to be pretty solid as far as pricing and sales staff.

Definitely Longo Lexus.

They have a huge inventory so it's easier to get the model+options you want.

Don't go to South Bay Lexus in Torrance. They'll do just about anything to rip you off.

Vista Lexus in Woodland Hills on Ventura gave me a smoking deal on a nicely equipped IS250 6MT before I picked up my 328. If I remember correctly, it was $340 out the door for 36 months 15k/year with $2500 down (mostly tax, title, license...etc).

From what I saw there and Silver Star in Westlake, IS250s are going for great deals pretty much everywhere. Step up to the 350 and it starts to get ridiculous though. Silver Star even traded an auto 250 for a 6MT up in NorCal because I wanted Pearl White with the X package (even though I didnt end up buying, they called me when it came in, haha).

I told both dealers to call me when they start making the IS350 in a 6MT

+100 for Luxury Motorworks for service. When I had my GS I had all the mods installed there and my 60K and 90K service done as well.
