Default Build info for the SE area

This is from Lexus:

Our launch build strategy was very simple as we targeted the content found in the best selling BMW 325. Therefore, 75% of our build will be the IS 250 and the remaining 25% will be the IS 350.

Option content on both models has been greatly simplified as leather and sunroof is standard.

Of the total IS series build,
67% will be IS250 equipped with an automatic transmission,
3% IS250 with a manual transmission,
5% IS250 with all-wheel drive, and
25% will be IS350.

Of the total automatic build on the IS 250,
85% will come with the upgraded 18” inch wheels and the other
15% will have the 18” wheels and the navigation system.
The few manual cars will come with 18” wheels on 90% of the build and 18” wheels and navigation on the remaining 10% of the build.

Eighty percent of the all-wheel drive models
will come with the special 17” all-season tire.
The remaining 20% will be equipped with 17” all-season tires and the navigation system.

The IS 350 will have 85% of the build with 18” tires,
10% with 18” tires and the navigation system and
5% with 18” tires, navigation and the Levinson audio system.

See you at the launch party

Cool info. Good for the South Eastern folks who will be able to get the ML in the initial batch. I can also see why AWD gets only 5% of the total allocation over there.
