I hope your experience is as great as mine has been. Good luck!
Nice! I am in Palm Bay as well. I actually went up to Georgia to get my car, but I am loving it so far. Lexus of Melbourne got a deposit on their Molten Pearl IS500 as I was working on the numbers with them on it. It all worked out as I ended up getting a much better deal than was Lexus of Melbourne was offering me.

No allegiance to Lexus of Melbourne at all. They did find me a Lexus after 15 months of searching all over South East USA. They offered me the ONLY NX 450H+ they get for the year. Was looking for a 350H but jumped on the 450H+ as I didn't think I'd ever get anything. They screwed me on the pricing but I accepted it. I will maybe take it for the free 5K service but I'll use a local shop for routine maintenance. It's a 3 hour drive to Melbourne from Crystal River and a 1.5 hour drive to Clearwater. I told Lexus of Clearwater I would never grace their doorway again so I'd most likely use Lexus of Wesley Chapel if required.

Well, take it easy and be safe. Headed over to Daytona next week to lay around. I'll see what it's like to have to find EV charger to get the EV recharged when running around. It's easy when you can pull into the garage and plug it in. The EV battery is only good for 37 miles so I go HV when traveling.

Forgotten Coast / armpit over here!
Picked up a 2020 GX 460 Premium about two weeks ago from Village Toyota/Cadillac in Homosassa.
I just put on 265/65/18 Wildpeaks on the stock Lexus 18s,
I will likely put a lift on her sometime in Q1 (mild, 1 - 2" mostly to level).

If you're this way and you see a GX with a red skiff behind it, throw the L up!

After 6 Lexus models, I decided to get rid of my 8 month old 23 NX 450H+. I've ordered a new make and model yesterday. Going to take the 24 Lincoln Nautilus Hybrid for a spin. I've loved this model since it came out but wanted the hybrid. They finally added that option so I'm going with it.

Nothing technically wrong with the Lexus I'm just tired with the Infotainment system and issues. Only problem now is the car has depreciated $25K in 8 months.

I suppose I never did check in here. Orlando area. If you see a back GS zooming around the turnpike, it might be me.
