The dealer I work for here in NE Florida has a white on red IS 500 that hits the ground today that is available at the moment. MSRP, no adds, but the catch is we are only selling within our local market. If you know anyone looking in NE Florida/SE Georgia please PM. Thank you!

So I was browsing the Lexus website and noticed that all vehicles now have a new tab that says "SHOP"
When you click it, you can go as far as 500 mile radius and see all of the cars allocated to dealers, the packages that are on the car, the MSRP, and in some cases you can even see ETAs for delivery. You can also tell which cars are at dealers already because they don't say "This vehicle may be in transit." If you don't find a car that meets your criteria in the 500 mile radius, just find the zip code of a city 400-500 miles in any other direction. I will say this, there are A LOT of white cars out there. Followed by Iridium, and then Infrared, at least in the Southern region.

Wealth befalls many that are mentally challenged with no actual skill or contribution to society, like influencers, celebrities, and I might add some politicians. So yes, someone can make poor life decisions while having a lot of money, and that would still make you an idiot.
Society in which bad and toxic (for the majority) behavior is incentivized, while a good and moral guy is punished tells you who controls such a society. It also tells you, what for.

They are not idiots. They are often immoral and use ways specifically designed to take advantage of high trust societies via immoral means. One such example is how good behavior of prudent savers is punished via inflation and lack of leverage, while people borrowing for the stuff they cant afford, are incentivized to borrow more. Calling them idiots is misunderstanding the problem.

I just got by USB one. But while I was on the waiting list (since last October), I've gotten many offers for the Molten Pearl, which I almost got, but turned down.
With it being a new exclusive color this year, I expect it to be very limited and hard to come by...but I guess not.
Or it just not selling as fast as the other colors choices?

Over the years we’ve had much flashier cars than this and honestly the extra attention got old real fast. This is what makes the IS500 so great - Lexus offers it in five sleeper colors while also offering it in four very alive & special colors.
When I get a thumbs up driving Caviar Black you know it’s from a true enthusiast, which is nice, versus getting attention just for being in a bright colored car. That being said my two favorite IS500 colors are still Infrared and USB.

It factored into my color decision. If you are a trial lawyer, you generally don't want a perspective juror noticing your car. I know of lawyers that have a beater (old SUVs and old trucks because Texas) just for driving to Court.

Which is a personal choice, not one mandated by an employer. I'm a lawyer and I have an IS500, granted Canadians are less litigious than Americans and jury trials are less common here.

But ya, fair or not, a lot of bigger US corporate firms still try to project a conservative image. Many clients just don’t enjoy seeing that $500/hr rate they’re paying go towards a 5th year associate driving a bright yellow Porsche.

Whilst I am awaiting my Cloudburst grey IS500 to arrive in a couple of weeks, I still do peak around the myriad of dealerships around the GTA to see if an Infrared pops up , and then if one does,
I'll have to make a judgement call at that point. The infrared suits the IS very well, and whilst it is a bold colour, it still gives the car a good elegant look.
