CONGRATS!! Awesome find; the USBs with black are a bit challenging to find. As far as shipping, if you’re not trading, make sure to ask the dealer if they have a shipper. I was about to pay $700 for 380 mi. on my own, and at the last minute I asked the dealer. They had access to a network that got it for me for $425.

Was just able to secure a new is500 USB with black interior. its in ohio so i get to do a road trip to get it. My local dealer wanted over 2 grand to have it shipped here, so i passed and will just work with the local dealer there.
no idea how a usb with black interior popped up out of nowhere, but was able to snag it

Super excited to join the club! I ordered a base (yes that's right a base not premium) 2023 IS500 in USB 2.0 with a red interior with silver enkeis (aka hero spec ). How many other base IS500s here? Ordered it in April and it is now scheduled to be built July 24th and 4-6 weeks later it's in my hands!
I have been very lucky to have the ability to order direct from the factory and avoid having to put a deposit down/deal with markups and order in whatever spec I wish. I have it on a 3 year lease and very much plan to buyout at the end. Got very lucky with pricing (paying less than a highlander lease) and being able to order direct!
Can't wait to join the club!

Hey Velocistar Congrats on the car you will enjoy it!
On a slightly unrelated note, does anyone here have the factory dash cam and do they have any opinions on it? I essentially ticked every box as an option except for the black wheels and the premium trim.

1. What trim is your IS500? Base or Premium? Color? Limited Edition/Special Appearance? 2023 ultra white/ red performance premium2. How did you get your IS500? Did you go through the dealership and placed a factory order or were you lucky enough to get one on the lot? Dealer traded vehicles with another out of state dealer3. How long did it take from signing the paperwork to taking delivery if you factory ordered? I started looking on 7/31, took delivery on 8/19.4. Did you go out of state to get your IS500? n/a5. What are some of the options equipped? BBS wheels or Enkei? Navigation with ML? BBS wheels, ML stereo, all weather mats, illuminated front sills, ceramic tint6. What is the MSRP and what was the Out the door price? My OTD was 71k and thr car was 64k. Got it under invoice. Had an odd experience with the dealer and they made it "right" giving me a good deal.7. Which dealership did you go to and would you recommend them with your experience? waiting on giving a name out, since they still owe me something they promised to give me.
