She's a beauty. I'm leaning heavily towards the hybrid as well.

Looks good! Those are probably the best looking wheels of the bunch. I wish they were 21" and came with the performance package.

Congratulations and I hope you enjoy the car. I'm about to place an order for a white hybrid but with the red and black interior and the 21" wheels. I was tempted by the red but I think the white shows off the lines of the car better.

The hybrid definitely pulls better at low revs. The V8 doesn't do much at low revs.

Wow, congrats! Would love to have those rims in the US on the Hybrid. Your interior/exterior color is exactly what I am looking for here in the US, if only I could find one for MSRP.

Those are the base rims in US. Plus dealers generally charge MSRP on an ordered car.

Those rims are NOT base on the Hybrid, you only get one choice. Ordered cars have a 4 - 5 month delivery date.

you are correct. I guess my dealer swapped them. One customer wanted the 21", and must have swapped.

Ordered cars have a 4 - 5 month delivery date.
So? Get what you want, you could be waiting a lot longer, if ever, for one "to just appear" on the lot.

Several have already "appeared" on lots given there aren't many package options with the Hybrid. Unfortunate that dealers and Lexus would rather they remain on the lot by charging 20 - 30K over MSRP versus them being sold at MSRP.
Given the history, others will continue reappear so hopefully that I will get one at MSRP sooner than 4 - 5 months given I prefer to have it in a shorter timeframe.

Congrats on the new LC500h! How does the hybrid drive? I've only driven the V8 version and really enjoyed it.

The Lexus rep had a white hybrid with 21" wheels...
