So I got it 
!!! Got it for $36k+tax/fees. Fully loaded IS250! =) I thought the $1000 loyalty thing was expired but I mentioned it and he gave it to us! Though I did trade in the mercedes for it! Gotta say I love how it drives! It's still a shock to me though. No mods as of now but I'd really love it if I had the F sport intake/exhaust!

Just got mine yesterday as well. Paid in the 36's. I'll have to check for sure when I get home.
Mines got the HID's w/ DRLs
Navigation
F Sport
Same color etc! Came from an Acur RDX, so it feels a bit slower than my Acura but I have not "got on it" yet because of the break in!
I did not realize how small it feels inside either. I am still working on getting the seat heaight/position/lumbar and all that to be comfortable!

Awesome Man!!!! Congrats. You got a pretty good deal considering the shortage of cars and how rare your color combo/package is! I was really torn on getting the F-Sport or Premium package non F-sport. I liked the black headliner and F-Sport mods a lot. In the end the cooled seats and wood interior won me over.
Enjoy your car. I noticed the trans took some serious training to get used to reving higher and downshifting faster. The ECU will adjust the car based on your driving habits for the first 2k miles. Keep that in mind; if you drive it modest it will be modest. And new cars don't have a break in period anymore...FYI. Have Fun!!!

Thanks again for making noob feel welcomed! I thought it was fulled loaded but it doesn't have package A listed on the lexus website. That sucks, but I guess I can live without it!
StayInhonda- Congrats man! I love the color!
I used to drive a prelude but I sold it and got a hand-me-down Mercedes. That was a headache to drive but I'm now in love with the color of the IS!
