2024 Bespoke Ordering process
#46
If a non-Torsen LC comes with an open differential, then case closed. But many times, a Torsen is an upgrade over a clutch-type LSD, so I'd just like to know if non-Torsen LCs have an open differential or not. If yes, then case closed. Ha ha. On the other hand, if the Yamaha damper is there, then since it comes bundled with the Torsen, we could assume the Torsen will be there. However, there's confusion which is the optional Yamaha damper: if the front one, or the rear one. The whole thing is super confusing. It also appears that the sport seats only come with Alcantara, so if you opt for full leather seats, they have to be the touring ones, correct? And which is more comfortable? But the performance PADS (the brakes are the same in all trims, as far as I know), so how do you know if you have performance pads or not? I'd replace them with the 'touring' ones if I hear a single squeal, since I'd never track the car. Want to hear if regular LCs have an open diff, so I can be absolutely certain a 2023 bespoke comes with the Torsen/Yamaha, when it doesn't say anything on the window sticker. This was super help folks; thank you all.

I wanted to put this silly debate to rest once and for all, so I reached out to Lexus Corporate and their press contact.
To finalize the debate once and for all, the Bespoke package comes like this in the USA:
This information is DIRECTLY from Lexus USA. If you have seen Torsen on a Bespoke window sticker as an option, it was a non-USA build. Case closed.

Hey, I agree case closed...but only for 2024. Ha ha. But what about 2023? You should have asked the lady for all previous years, to close the case for ALL bespoke years in the US, at least. Oh well. If I come to an agreement with that Margate dealer, I'd post somewhere if a forum member lives nearby (possible Pompano Beach or Boca Raton), to inspect/scrutinize the car for me for a fee, including peeking under the rear bumper for that pesky damper. And if present, I'd assume a Torsen is present as well. I'd want to make sure the car is immaculate as well, or no deal. Thank you for posting that, to at least know what's the deal with 2024s. I'd like to assume 2023s were the same, but who knows. Take care.

I'd love to see more pics of your car as I'm gonna be waiting months before I see mine
