It's all bogus. Salesman lies about everything and anything. it's all about meeting the monthly sales target.

Can't pick my car up until 4/21 though because the salesman is off until then....I'm dying. They better not use it for test driving
You are almost there man. Feels like you and I have been waiting in Pittsburgh for these things forever. 6 days to the dealership is very encouraging. Post some pics as soon as you get it.
Congrats


I can't wait to get my hands on mine.

Thanks Turk! I called off work today to go pick it up. My baby is only a few hours old, and she's gorgeous! I had remembered on the test drive a little more power on the awd but it's still not bad. That would be my only complaint, and I can't really complain. It came to the dealership with 3 miles on it. When I picked it up it had 7 because they had to drive down the road to top off the gas.

Lexus of North Hills had the car looking beautiful. They gave me two keyfobs with those cheap wannabe leather cases (which I took off right away) and all weather mats and cargo net they threw in for free for my long wait. They told me they're having an owners party in a few days for the unveiling of the ES. And when I say party, I mean party! Good bands you've heard of, catered food, drinks all around, etc. The salesman said the VP does everything he can to make that dealership the best in the country. Who knows about that, but it definately has my vote.

It figures the forecast calls for rain the next four days, and its pouring right now. As soon as the sun comes out I'll post pics.

I actually just picked mine up yesterday!

I am overwhelmed by how fast this car really is. It is so much faster than I remembered it being from the test drives. I can't wait to start the modding. I am going to zaino tomorrow and then post some pics.

I am so glad your painful wait is finally over. I hope to be picking mine up mid-May from Lexus of North Hills. That dealership is just awesome.

When I saw all the rain last weekend, I wondered about you because I was thinking "would I want to pick up my baby if it was pouring down?". Looking forward to the pics.

Talking

I got it!
I got it!
I got it!

It looked so fine when I got there to get it and I can't believe it's mine. It drives like a dream and I smoked 2 baby beamers coming home.

I'll take a picture when it is day time and it quits raining. Wouldn't you know we have been in a dreadful drought for 6 months and on the way home it starts raining and ruins the prep work?

I am in shock over how nice it is! Car came on the last day of the range of dates I was given. In 8 hours the dealer installed XM, ceramic tint and clear bra. By 6PM it was mine!

Way to go Steve at Lexus of Austin!
