tracked mine off the boat. It went to one dealership, I went to another one closer to me, they went and picked it up on a flat bed from the dealership it was sent, and brought it to me. all in a matter of days.

Mine was already at the dealer. I can't stand waiting to get something. Either they have one orI wont order it. ONLY because if I wait 2 months, there will be about 4 month wait before I start hearing facts about next years model. So I rather have the car for alonger period before fiding out theres a better model.

Mine was already inbound on the boat when I bought it. I'm sure I could have held out for a while - for example, a SGM with black interior came in early January, which at the time (early December) I purchased my Starfire Pearl was my 1st choice. The thing was, no one could tell me when the SGM I wanted was coming in. Yet, no regrets at this point with my choice! And as soon as I made up my mind to go with it, then I became somewhat anxious if not impatient waiting for it!

Ordered mine right after the official release date - took two weeks to get the color combo I wanted delivered up from the port.

I took another customers reserved car because they were undecided about which model they wanted. Like they say "Cash talks, bull**** walks"

My GS350 was inbound, took about 2 weeks. None on the lot though, plenty of 450h's sitting around! Said they couldn't sell them b/c of the trunk space.

Because I wanted a standard Lexus color combination (black with gray interior) that California (or the whole western region) deemed unnecessary, I had to special order. Took 4 months.

I waited only a few weeks.. I don't remember exactly. Wanted Black/Black Nav Only. Luckily, there was one that was either at or on the way to the Long Beach port. And now, it's home with me.

Default Just picked up our '07

starfire pearl w/ cashmere and nav last night. What a beautiful car - won't let the wife drive it again until things thaw out around here and they stop spreading so much salt and cinders.

Really? I test drove one exactly like that on Day One (August 29th). Didn't want the gray, so I had to wait...LOL!
