Well even then the only fee that is required is the destination fee. A dealer has no legal obligation to charge a doc fee, and $699 is a VERY high doc fee. For example, JM Lexus has a $65 doc fee. Lexus of Palm Beach has a $149 doc fee. $200 tops is the industry average. Typically dealers put a very high dealer fee and then a very low doc fee. In the case of this dealer, they put no dealer fee but a very high doc fee. Same s***, different name. Having said that though, if this is 100% the spec you want, I wouldn't pass on it for $699 no matter how slimey the practice is.

There is an Atomic Silver on white at Lexus of Seattle available, listed for $1,885.00 over MSRP. They had at least two other allocations since October but were quickly picked up, including an Atomic Silver over Red.

Im enjoying it so far good power and torquey and great sound on startup and idle sounds like an American V8. When you hear the motor from the inside sounds Japanese. Yamaha tuned the heads to make that unique sound the 2UR has.
Mpg decent even though I’m breaking it in. So far 19 MPG average.
Handling is great better than the 350 F-Sport I had. Adaptive variable suspension is great it adjusts to the road conditions. Gets stiffer on smooth roads and feels stiffer than regular 350 suspension. Feels beefy and good damping.
Feels softer than regular f sport suspension too when roads are terrible. LSD helps turn better and brakes are pretty good.
. You got Premium or Base?

^^ I agree, I have seen that happen even with my white one and it is a good feeling when people stop and stare. At first, I thought they were checking me out but then I noticed I never get any attention while in my white Spark so I concluded it must be the car (lol)

I was in the Denver area the last 5 days and my 90 year old Father-In-Law saw a white IS and said: “There’s a car like Tony’s, if I was still allowed to drive, I’d drive that one!”
Young, old, and everything in between; this design turns heads.

That is why I got an inauspicious color, Molten Pearl, so that I can fly under the radar.

^^ LMAO - Yeah, that Molten Pearl color is one on the most 'vanilla' color ever - Only boring people get that color (LMAO) - End of sarcasm. If Canada offered it, I would have gotten one on a heartbeat!
