On the flip side you know you have one coming.... some of us just have deposits with no other ETA or updates. Just trying to make a positive spin on it for you. Happy Holidays.

I understand all the frustrations.. I was told my LE would arrive at the dealership LAST WEEK. So now that it is Wednesday of the week after, I am just anxiously waiting.

So just to confirm, everyone who is able to track their IS500 in shipment is able to do so after being given the name of the transport ship it is on by the dealer/salesperson? Just didn't know if there was another resource that I'm missing that would allow me to track a vehicle in-transit. Trying not to bother my salesperson - we've agreed on price but from the stories on here I don't want to seem desperate and expose myself to some ADM shenanigans prior to finalizing the purchase.

I've set up the VIN in the Lexus app but mine is still not showing any mileage or fuel level updates. Apologies if this has already been covered - searched for the answer and rapidly went through 270 pages of threads without finding the answer.
From what the dealership told me, they can only see date it’s getting on the ship and date of port arrival. By tracking ships leaving Japan that match both of those dates- I was able to match it up to which one my car is on. I’ve added a link on the spreadsheet to the Japan port from which I believe our cars load from. Manuals/Links page: Is500 spreadsheet
