I haven't seen it up close myself but will visit the dealer one of these days to confirm.

My 04 GX has dark gray leather seats so I am wondering if the 2nd gen black nuluxe seat color matches my old one.

Looks like the black nuluxe color is popular along with rojo red and ecru. I would prefer the light gray that comes on the black line edition but its not avail on the premium version.
I would agree that the black nuluxe seats are not a pure black, rather a very, very dark gray.

Default 2023 Blackline Limited Production

Lexus advertised that 3000 blackline would be the limit for 2023 production. I am seeing a lot of blacklines arriving at local dealers. Are they producing more than 3000?

Maybe they make them in batches? There was another thread on here that said the production had ended. That post cited no source, however. I have also seen a steady stream arriving, but they move fairly fast. Also realize what arrives at dealers today may have been built a couple of months ago depending on where you live.

The FOMO got me off my *** our preferred color combo black line hit our driveway yesterday. Very nice car.

Our network dealers got a few and they go quick. Every other inquiry we get on a GX is for the BlackLine in Nori Green or White.

We have people locked on incoming units at 8% off msrp for next month.

Your dealerships are discounting off of MSRP?

The sole Lexus dealer in Alaska is now charging a mark-up, $2,500 on SUVs.

When I bought my 22' the sales person told me that they were forbidden by Lexus to mark up the vehicle (anti-competition/anti-monopoly?), yet when I asked them about how can they mark-up when Lexus was not allowing it, they replied that it is a dealership/ownership decision all along.

Just picked up a 2023 GX Premium Plus with Sports package in white/ecru. Lexus is running pretty good lease deals again (669$ per month, $6k down) on base premiums and I put a little extra down for the above options. Prefer to lease just in case the vehicle gets banged up etc I can turn it in,

First, I will say that our previous 2019 GX was overall one of my least favorite vehicles I have owned (sorry to offend any current owners). I can say that it did its job as a reliable family truckster, but that is about it.

Shortly after taking delivery of the 2019 I received a survey from Lexus about my likes/ dislikes and I can confidently say that the 2023 addresses 99% of the numerous suggestions that I made at the time. About the only thing that the 2023 doesn’t address is still that feeling of underwhelming power for the fuel economy that you get.

Otherwise, I have to say that I went from pretty much hating the 2019 to loving the 2023. So far, really nothing I can complain about and I’m looking forward to a solid run with this vehicle. Going in for the full frontal clear bra and window tint on Thursday and already have the Weathertech mats in place (btw, the fit of the Weathertechs these days is off the charts good! Wish the mats still had the red weathertech emblems on them, but aside from that they are amazingly tight fitting).

Will post a few pics later - rainy delivery day unfortunately, but wanted to share my thoughts. I think Lexus really loaded up the options on this final year model and would highly recommend the upgrade to anyone looking to do so.

Will do. Yep, up in Urbana.

Keeping the ecru clean will present an interesting challenge for sure….Not a problem if it was just me, but since at least half of our sports hauling will be done in this vehicle, some drastic actions are going to need to be put in place 😁
