The V8 is back: IS 500 F SPORT Performance

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how did you guys get those delivery papers detailing your car info? I want to ask my salesperson but i want to be clear so he doesn’t come back with “I dont know what you mean” I want to verify the car specs, add ons, delivery date, etc…
On a different note some one here posted the 2022 Audi RS3 and I have to say the car looks and sounds amazing. Although they verified that they would not go over MSRP on the is500 because I got in very early I do not trust it until the ink is on paper. I decided if they pulled shenanigans I would wait till 2022 and buy that car instead. I understand this is a personal decision but we should stand in solidarity otherwise businesses will keep testing the waters, Just my 2 cents.

See below again @lexussingh
PIO = Port Installed Options that are built into the final window sticker MSRP is not a “dealer grab”
Things like non factory alarms, ceramic coatings, tints, etc aftermarket goods or services are the dealer “add ons” that get tacked onto an addendum next to the window sticker…

Some of you many know this already but if you are bored you can add your VIN to the Enform App and your vehicle will show up.....and I'm seeing this under Port or Factory Equipment...."Zero Halliburton edge lightweight luggage set designed for Lexus (Shipped to address of your choice)"....not sure if this is just for the LE but its the first I'm seeing it...https://zerohalliburton.com/pages/ze...rton-for-lexus
Can't seem to glean a Badge Number.....

Lmao that’s why I’m waiting until the date that my car is scheduled to be at the port. I would imagine that you could send an email or call Lexus corporate and they’d be able to help you with this if you explained what happened.

Compromise - What TipsyTonio suggested is a good idea except when you talk to them, don't start by saying: " I am so sorry, I have a problem where I prematurely..." or you might get a response like "Sir, we don't deal with these issues here..."click"" LMAO

Hi All... it's been a long time since I've posted. Like a lot of you I've been getting calls and emails from my local SF Bay Area dealerships. I almost fell out of my seat when Lexus of Serramonte shared a price for the Launch Edition at $25k OVER MSRP with a total of $95,145.00 BEFORE taxes and fees. I couldn't believe this so I replied back and asked if this was normal because I've seen others seeing offers for a little over MSRP. I also asked if this $25k markup was unethical and was told "everyone in the bay area has a mark up...." and that "this is what our company wants to do." Apparently, someone put a down payment on it today too. Crazy! I'll be sitting out the Launch Edition but do plan on getting the Premium Edition.

^^ Can't wait to see the first pics of this car, the 1st official one getting the white on this forum, and we'll see if the trans cooler is silver or black ....Oh the suspense!

^^ I am sure you can have them installed - They wanted to keep the price somewhat affordable, despite the outrageous premiums are tacking on the car!! To be honest, not everyone would want these accessories, myself included so I am happy they leave it at the discretion of the customer

I don't mind them, but would've been okay with not having them as well since they cost $400+ per. Since my LE comes with them, I'll take them.
I'm sure the dealer can install them for you later on.
