Between 90-100'ish, If I had to guess 91 (corrected as #92 was already taken) maybe? Grain of salt though. It falls in a weird spot, around the late 80's but no number 100's (#111 is way further down the VIN line) have shown up as well around that area. #93 is the closest car to it and it has around 5 cars after it that (Yours would be the 5th car after it at least but there could be 1 non-LE as well meaning only 4 away from #93). But remember the numbers jump around but stay within a "block or group" of other cars with few exceptions.
Hey guys new member here. I decided last night that I wanted to pick up a IS500 after a good friend was telling me about them. First dealer I called this morning was selling a LE for 5k over MSRP, although I love the incognito color I'm not sure its worth paying the premium on a daily driver. I ended up swinging by the dealership closest to my house, someone recently canceled their deposit on a Atomic Sliver premium edition and I was able to snag it at MSRP. Although I'm not to sure about the color I figure I might as well take it, looking forward to getting it at the end of the month!
^^ Congrats and welcome to the forum!! You should go buy a Power Ball ticket too because you are some lucky dude!! You decide last night that you want to get an IS 500 and you have an Atomic Silver at MSRP secured less than 24h later....that is some amazing!! You have members here that have had deposits or their name on a list for months and months still unsure if they'll even get one or have been tagged with ridiculous market adjustments!! You did well....congrats and the AS is one fine looking color now that I have seen good pics of it!!
Picked up my LE yesterday from Freeman Lexus in Santa Rosa at MSRP. I also was able to get Putnam Lexus down the street from me down to MSRP, but they have the front plate drilled on. That's a no go for me.
Took a nice drive with the wife up north and car was absolutely mint, 8 miles on the clock. No surprises upon arrival, car was as promised and could not be happier.
I am coming from a 2018 M3. I have been looking for a V8 and this car looks sweet, I love the color scheme. First time Lexus owner, the build quality is great!
I also was able to get Putnam Lexus down the street from me down to MSRP, but they have the front plate drilled on. That's a no go for me.
So glad I asked my saleperson to make sure they don't drill the front for a plate.. also, my name was on that car at Putnam, they wouldn't go down to MSRP, so definitely impressed you are able to talk them down to MSRP!
New here, this is only my third post.
2022 IS 500 Premium.
Infrared
White with Black Geometric Trim
Options:
Premium paint (BS IMO)
All Weather Floor Liner and Trunk Tray

Trunk Mat/Cargo Net/Wheel Locks/Rear Bumper Applique
Purchased 1/8/2022 at Sewell Lexus, Dallas Texas at MSRP. Purchased extended warranty, wheel and tire coverage, windshield/ding/key coverage and received a nice discount on the extras. Also got a break on window tint. Sewell seems to be getting a lot of these. I was waiting at another dealer since March 2021 and they gave me no clue as to when I would get mine. My first color choice was Cloudburst/Red (traded a '21 IS 350 F Sport in this color for the 500) and Infrared/White was second choice.
Only 5 days in and about 300 miles, but very happy with purchase. More than fast enough, likely can handle mods reliably and when cruising around, much more comfortable with similar-performing cars. Also have a 2019 GX 460, got my son a 2010 ES 350 and have an LX 600 on order. Not intending to brag, just love the brand.
Congrats and welcome to the forum!! Your Infrared looks great and love the white interior What is interesting about the illuminated door sill is that the F logo is white and not consistent with the black F logo for the F Performance trim but I am sure 99.9% of people wouldn't spot that and they do look cool at night that is for sure. One quick question, and this applies to other forum members, are you guys keeping those decorative license plate frame promoting the dealers? I never have any decals on my car or such promotional things...The infrared looks great with the Enkei wheels.
