One thing that's annoying me right now though is that on top of paying sticker for my GX (I understand that's just the way the market is right now), I was forced to pay $399 add-on for tints. It has been 8 days now and I still see the tiny bubbles all over. I texted the sales rep I bought my GX from yesterday and he said to wait until the weather gets hot and the bubbles should be gone. Haha. I've only been in Texas for 3 years, but I don't think it's going to get any hotter here as we approach November. Nonetheless, I did that and then today, I tried the blow dryer approach from the other side of the glass. Upon closer inspection, I can see the bubbles don't have liquid in them. They're already dry. Some of them have tiny fibers in them, which means no amount of heat will make that go away. My experience has been great, but I shouldn't have to beg to get a better tint job than this, right? Or am I being nitpicky and I'm out of line? I paid sticker and the add-on. I'm thinking I shouldn't have to beg for a better tint job than this.
You paid a premium price for a premium vehicle, you should expect no less than a premium experience. They need to do it right or pay for someone to do so.
Reading that others are facing similar circumstances across the country. I put a deposit down early September for a Black Line Edition and agreed on a price (sticker price minus a $1,800 Discount) as low inventory and dealer only getting a handful. Hated not to negotiate, but understand we are all in a shortage. Have waiting almost 2 months. Finally was told Wednesday that it was on the ground and being shipped, however, the "price structure" had changed..........the dealer stated that Lexus would not allow the discount I was quoted. Plus, got a new sticker price on it yesterday and the tow package has been removed (as others have mentioned). Been told they will provide me with the hitch at no charge when they get them early next year. Still want the car, but a little annoyed by the communication and last minute change. Just looking for reassurance that it is still a fair deal..........................Thanks for any positive vibes back!
My salesman got a notification that it should show up 11/1-11/8. He said that it also shows "In Transit" so who really knows? Jacksonville, FL is only a six-hour drive from Raleigh, so really it could be any day. The port is probably waiting on trucks, though.
Mine arrived at the dealership in Jacksonville yesterday afternoon, so yours is probably on the way. Did your dealer try to change the pricing you were originally quoted?
Hi, I was wondering if anyone aware or know if there are any 2022 luxury trim out there? I been trying to locate one in my area (NorCal), but there are none. Was wondering if anyone has spot any out there?

There's one on at the dealership in Omaha Nebraska currently.

One of the dealership in my area spotted one in TX, but asked me if I'm willing to pay transport fees to bring it here... I said nope because why would I pay for something that I have not see it in person... unless I purchased it out there, and asked them to transport it over to CA.
Haven't had luck to find a luxury trim with the option and color combination I wanted.
Purchases a Black line Nori Green Pearl for my wife at Escondido CA. Had a white one on hold but the sale fell through on the Green and we swooped in and grabbed it same price sticker no BS on mark ups.

Yeah I wouldn't expect them to ship it for free as that'd cost at least $1500.

Yeh, I see it as them treating this as a "deposit" to reserve one, but in this case, it would be transporting from a different dealership that's out of state. I wouldn't mind this if I was desperate for it and flew out to TX to buy it there, but I'm in no rush... Hopefully inventory will be more available within the next couple months and prices are easier to negotiate.
You know I was kind of bummed that my Nori Green GX fell through, however, I have to say I'm not as much of a fan of the color as I thought I'd be and am actually looking forward to my Starfire Pearl arriving.
