Chantilly is selling the standard performance for $66K claiming it's MSRP so I guess almost $10K in dealer add-ons but I'm still waiting for my sales guy to get back to me.
Their claims are 100% BS. I got my Molten Pearl at MSRP which is $66,340, plus my did come with $290 of port installed parts, wheel locks, trunk mat and cargo net.
So $66k for Performance is BS.

Totally agree... time to start looking for backup plans.

Ahh I see.
"Base model" is what most people call it. Maybe he didnt reply because he's also confused by you calling it the wrong thing?

Default Molten Pearl incoming to Nalley Lexus in Roswell, GA - December
Sales just called to offer me the incoming Molten Pearl and I declined. Beautiful color, just not for me.

That is not an excuse for not calling a potential client backs.
In actuality, being confused is the perfect reason to call a potential client back and make sure both are clear on the ask so that sales person can deliver the right product and the client receives the right product.

@Lucci do you have the spec sheet for this "performance"/"base" model? AFAIK Lexus hasn't made a single production base model IS500 yet.

Agree. But since when does a salesperson do anything logical?

I looked it up using the VIN tool on this site https://www.clublexus.com/forums/vin...AP1D23P5002130

Cars dot com ad https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/a...-2ea8ec59547c/

Also, I gave the salesperson the VIN.

Not sold, but reserved with deposit. They can't sell a car before it arrives.

I inquired about trading mine for this Molten Pearl but was told it was already on hold with deposit.

OK, I might be completely wrong. I just ran the VIN on the molten pearl above and it came back as standard performance at 57K MSRP.

Maybe Pohanka isn't marking it up.

Gotcha. So the one at Chantilly is most likely a premium model, with ML audio and all that. That's what I thought because 66k is almost the exact price after delivery for premiums + BBS wheels.

Long gone are the days you could get an IS500 for 63k (delivery inc).
