i was just at sterling mccall today and the sales guy had to idea.
But it does suck currently. The whole "no options" thing is just weird.

I have info on just the IS350 first allocation shipment (Westside Lexus & Sterling McCall Lexus) which are for the ones that came in from mid-oct (orig release) til mid-nov. I didn't gather info on the IS250, but those will definitely be more readily available.

WESTSIDE LEXUS

1. 074 glacier frost L11 grey FT Z1

2. 074 glacier frost L27 black FT Z1

3. 202 black onyx L04 beige FT Z1

4. 3R1 matador red L27 black FT Z1

5. 8P8 blue onyx L04 beige FT Z1

6. 8R6 breakwater blue L11 grey FT Z1

7. 8R6 breakwater blue L04 beige FT Z1

STERLING MCCALL LEXUS

8. 1G1 tungsten grey L27 black FT Z1

9. 202 black onyx L27 black FT Z1

10. 3R1 matador red L27 black FT Z1

11. 3R1 matador red L27 black FT Z1

12. 3R1 matador red L11 grey FT Z1


FT - 18" Wheels
Z1 - Mats & Wheel Locks
074 - glacier frost
202 - black onyx
3R1 - matador red
8P8 - blue onyx
8R6 - breakwater blue
1G1 - tungsten grey
L04 - beige leather
L11 - grey leather
L27 - black leather

_____________________________________________

I already snatched up the 1st delivered IS350 from Westside Lexus almost 2 weeks ago. It was the glacier frost w/ grey leather. Happened to be my 1st choice ext color & int color combo! What are the chances. I know that the other glacier frost w/ black leather already had someone's name on it too. I did get a glimpse of a breakwater blue is350 hiding in the back at westside which was undelivered.. but that was last week. There is a pretty big waiting list at all the dealers. I had put a deposit down 2 months prior to release. You'll still have a chance at one of the initial IS350s if someone backs out. If you go to Sterling McCall, I know the salesperson Martin Ma. Tell him Bernard sent you. And if you go to Westside, ask for Rodrick Watson.. he hooked me up on my 350. Good luck!

9. 202 black onyx L27 black FT Z1

OMG, that's what I'm looking for. A Black/black with basically only the 18" wheels. I wish I was in houston.

That's what I've been told too, but Northside and Westside (owned by same company) seems more confident about what they are getting. NO OPTIONS is BS! Northside and Westside have been selling ones with navis. Also, they told me that they are getting some allocations at the end of November. I just don't know what. It just looks like sterling mccall and clear lake (owned by same company) never know about anything and can never give you a straight answer. Even the sales guy I talked to at clear lake doesn't know what he's selling to me.

Thanks Badman. Congrats on your new car! I'm so jealous. I guess if I see glacier blue around, I'll assume it's you, since I haven't seen ANY around yet.

I'll definitely talk go to westside and see what they are getting and can offer me. BTW, any discounts on your car?

no discounts on the 350, but got very nice trade-in values on the rides that were swapped over.

hey guys,
i went to Westside on Friday to buy my brakes for my Rx and i went ahead and asked about the cars and i was told that they are trying to keep one on the lot. When i passed by to see if there was any left, i saw 3 of them with "Dealer" license plates, and i saw a couple leave with a dark colored IS. i couldnt tell what color it was exactly.
