I see on the dealers that their allocation is mostly Launch Edition or the F-Sport Premium.

Does anyone know when will the Base F-Sport arrive?

Thanks

There are non allocated yet. If they ever build any base model, we probably will not see it until the tail end of the production cycle as most of the builds are going to be the Launch and Premium packages.

Base builds have started to be accepted. Likely to be 6-8 months out according to Lexus reps I've spoken with.

6-8 months will be the end of the 2022 model year cycle. That puts it at a July or August 2022 build date.

I love the hot tea in here LOL

My friend called Serramonte earlier this week about their Premium, Ultra White on black, apparently it has been pre-sold with a $10k markup.
It's still on their website, VIN: JTHAP1D21N5001796 Stock: N5001796

I am patiently waiting for one at MSRP in NorCal. The photos of the Atomic Silver car might sway me away from white... Anyone seen Iridium yet?

Two are available in red and black at Darcars Lexus in NY with a 5K markup. The sales rep said it is a mark-up that Lexus USA is putting on not them not their dealership. I wanted to say BS but did not and smiled.

I went with black. Strongly considered white, but black is so easy to take care of. I already have to take care of our white RX I don't want another white interior lol
