When is everyone getting their IS?
So when does everyone plan on purchasing their IS? Maybe right when it comes out, or you'll wait a few months, or wait for the 2nd model year, or wait for coupe/convertible/IS460/hybrid, or maybe not get one at all?

I am waiting until i can get it for invoice+ 500$ then i am buying it! i will wait for at least like 6 months to get that price, if i cant get it within 6 months then I am not in a rush and i dont even drive once a week at this point right now.

I'll wait until the 2nd model year. I know that Lexus build quality is second-to-none, but with all the new design and technology in this car, I'd rather wait until small idiosyncrasies are ironed out.

With Lexus being a Japanese car company and using Japanese electronics, I have no worries about the first year problems that other manufacturers encounter.

They're both fully loaded (300 doesn't have PDC though), 430 has PCS, PDC, etc. The only problem we had with the 430 was the tire pressure sensor went off because the major climate change (85 last monday & tuesday, 55 that following wednesday for highs) screwed up the air pressure. Fixed for free at your local gas station that offers "free air".
