::heehee:: Right!

Not to say those who started their search in the Summer/Fall 2022 had a picnic, but it was a different landscape for sure. e.g. The world wasn’t blowing up.

So when some say: “Oh I miss the thrill of the hunt!” I’m like…yeah no thanks. 😂

::chuckling:: The Beluga Whale comparison started with the IS F by the Bimmer and Merc owners. Lexus just keeps on swimming. 😎😉

I agree, the interest rates are so freaking insane right now. I’m glad you’re keeping the Circuit Red! 🔥🤘🏽

It's -9.4 F. That's pretty cold but not out of the range I would expect. It would not shock me if it reads down to -40 F. We need some very northern US types to confirm. I'm pretty sure northern Alberta Canada would give some scary numbers.

When I drive to work in the morning mine hits 37F and says "ice warning" but doesn't ever go below 37 I just figured it stopped there lol

I was contacted by a Georgia sales rep today to see if I was still in the market for a IS 500. He has an Infrared w/Black in his show room for MSRP. Promised there was nothing more… The dude who ordered it backed out because he couldn’t get what he wanted for the trade-in. Message me for contact info!

Oh nice, the combo I'm looking for! Which Dealer/SA?

My bad, I read that as Iridium, got too excited.

It’s Nalley Lexus. I got several messages and wanted to give those dudes time to call since messages were sent.

1. Please ask for Shaun directly if he doesn’t answer the phone. Shaun Robinson 678-594-5144

2. Tell him Tony sent you.

Good luck!!

Going to head over there this weekend. If things don't work out, Butler has an Atomic Silver/Circuit Red as well. I will make sure to mention you!
