Happy New Year CL..!!

Congrats to all the new IS 500 owners..!!

Below is a great example as dealer needed to make monthly sales numbers.

One more car (IS 500 LE) off the lot at MSRP is still a win win for buyer & dealership.

If you can Do NOT pay the mark ups, they are completely unnecessary..

For those dealerships holding onto Launch Editions with markups, they may eventually do the same as buyers push back..

^^ To be honest, the only thing I wish we had is the sun/moonroof - I have no use for the sunshade nor the smart access key but that is just me....

Yes I am the same as j end up tinting the rear window anyways, just nice to have the smart key (came from a Tesla), you won't miss unless you have had it before.

Most banks will finance under or around 2% if you have good credit.

If you don't see tire pressure, odometer, etc in the Lexus enform app does that mean it has not left port?

In my experience, yes, it has not left. Assuming you have activated all the trials.

Are you going to 18's for winter?

Depends on the bank. Most people don't realize the term is limited to 36 months or less.

I took that from Lexus.com under the IS tab and selected view Launch edition and it showed all those features.
