LS600hL arriving??
Does anyone know when the 600's will actually arrive. I'm getting mixed messages from my dealer. Any update would be appreciated.

Pole Position
Last week in June is what I was told yesterday. Which means they must be on the boat...
The regular models are available in plentiful quantities now, unlike two months back, when I bought.
If you'd like one, better sign up fast as the list is almost full.
The Executive model though is not due to arrive until August.
There's an interesting footnote here. One Vancouver client who ordered the first one in Canada, and looked forward to being the first on the street was tremendously disappointed if not livid when he learned that his "Executive" model would arrive later than projected.

last time i heard they said delayed till august.
however, two weeks ago when i visited my doctor, we talked about cars (he knows i am a car guy) and he said he saw a 600hl on the road the other day. i asked him specifically and he said very clearly he saw the 600hl on the trunk lid, and the 600h was in a bit blue or so. that means he saw the "real" thing.
but then we are in cali, and my doctor is in the torrance area, so i am not sure if that's a toyota car

Perhaps the LS600hL's that are being seen are those, being driven by a privileged few....
My dealer also says that my car will arrive in late July or early August. I'm assuming some time in August.

LS 600h L
Lexus East Coast has turned back the arrival of the LS600h and LS 600hL to the showrooms back to the end of August. Reasaon sited was the Hand stiched leather Dash panel needed a tweek .... So we ( salespeople ) have been taking the brunt of the anger from Pre-ordered customers for the delay. There are 17 Ls 600hL and LS 600h out in the USA for verious shows, test and evaluation by rags and Lexus......... 3/4 of them are in Cali so it is possible to see the Actual thing out there...........

I've seen the 5 or so that were used for the recent press event in SoCal.
Another one was at the Napa Valley Wine Auction in St. Helena, Friday, June 8, 2007, as listed on Yahoo News:
