id love some help tracking down what boat I’m on… I was told departing the 8th, arriving 23rd- I’m assuming at my closest port which is Portland. Portland is not showing anything incoming yet in that range

edited to add: I’m premium 1596

Departure (UTC)
Nov 5, 08:36
In Port

More than likely it will show up here first:

I had no plans to do it, but all the movement here made it impossible not to follow up with one of the sales reps.

1. Said everything he sees is LE oriented and it’ll be that way until the first of the year. No premium orders have been confirmed/accepted yet.

2. My color preference means it’ll be 1 for every 500 to 1000 to be built.

Bless it, by the time I’m able to get mine, everyone else will have 10,000 smiles per miles.

Found our lowest number so far!

New 2022 Lexus IS500 (With Photos) : JTHUP1D24N5001143 (sewell.com)

Currently at 33 LE's

JTHUP1D24N5001143 N5001177 N5001191 N5001202 N5001203 N5001204 N5001248 N5001261 N5001285 N5001288 N5001290 N5001319 JTHUP1D20N5001320 N5001321 N5001346 N5001348 N5001351 N5001367 N5001369 N5001376 N5001377 N5001379 N5001380 N5001387 N5001391 N5001425 JTHUP1D20N5001477 N5001596 JTHUP1D25N5001605 N5001620 JTHUP1D2XN5001678 N5001684 N5001690

Between 1143 and 1690 is 547 numbers currently. If we assume 1 Premium/Base for every 5 LE's. We could potentially be looking at earliest number is 1101 and highest number as around 1750ish for LE's. If its one Base to 10 LE's that puts us pretty close to around 1690 being one of the last cars.

4 of the 7 known Non-LE's end in 6 as the last digit in the VIN while of the 33 LE's only 2 currently have a 6 ending.

Lets assume: Starting VIN is 1101 and Ending VIN is 1700. That gives us 599 cars. 500 being LE's and 99 being base premium. You can roughly guess your number by subtracting 1 for every 5 cars. 1101-1106 would be the first 5 LE's, 1107 would be a base, 1108-1112 (6-10) would be LE's, 1113 would be a base, 1114-1118 (11-15) would be a LE and so on.

Cheryl Carney with Bob Johnson Lexus in Rochester, NY said they were notified today they will receive an IS 500 LE during the 2nd or 3rd week of January. The port date is January 2. It seems the East Coast is getting allotments now. Hopefully the Midwest will soon. I was told the Midwest port is Portland btw.

No offense if you like the LE, but lets flush through these LEs and get to the other colors!

lol, that is my dealer. Are you also getting LE from them too? They gave me No.1 position for LE. Hopefully we don’t have to fight against each other : (

No, I'm 4th on their list for a premium; it will be a while.
