If this has been covered I apologize......if you see and LE that shows available at the dealership on line that doesn't mean its actually available....here is my car on my dealers website..
https://www.kunilexusofportland.com/...p1d24n5001191/

I'm guessing once the car is set to be delivered to the dealer the car is automatically uploaded to the dealers web page until the car is actually picked up....what's funny is I now see a dealer installed option BUT not sure if its the items I have asked for OR if its something they added or assume they are going to add...it's not a big deal but I'm not paying for another cargo net as I kept the one out of my GS 350 (more of a joke as at this point not a huge difference when dropping 69k+.....)

Still looking at the sticker to see if there is anything that on it that reveals the Launch # but I don't think there is.....
I'm in Hollywood today and I almost want to go up and see if the 2 that are listed here are on site..

It’s funny how this dealer is sleezy. Months ago I had a deposit with them and they told me “no markup. We aren’t allowed to do that” in writing and they since stopped communicating with me and now they say 10k. And despite being an Autonation dealer, another Autonation dealer near me is charging 20k. No consistency and you can’t trust them.

Somebody check on @wthrman2 and make sure our senior citizen didn’t have a heart attack when he saw these pictures.

They told me that too when I put down in when it was first announced. Almost no communication the whole time then they last month they told me 10k. Pulled out, called Wesley chapel and thankfully they had one with no deposit still. Trying to get info out of Tampa Bay was like pulling teeth. And they wanted me to bump my 1k refundable to 5k non refundable

If your LE arrived at the Portland dealership… have them send you the badge# - Unless you want to be surprised..!!

The VIN and/or Window sticker gives zero info on badge #’s
(this has been confirmed)
