When I see this, makes think they are going to get cracked down on like Sewell did:

https://parts.belllexusnorthscottsdale.com/

Notice: The 17.76% off Celebrate Your Lexus Promotion has been postponed
More details will be provided soon.


Obviously, we have some other good sources, but these guys are best overall I believe.

Lots of Lexus parts sites seem to have that cancelation notice

This doesn't look good. Hope it's nothing

Good catch, @DaveGS4 ! Yes, hopefully it is just software snafu that wasn't ready in time on a corporate level.

Yes. The hackers have caused all sorts of delays and cancellations until the ransom is paid....

Impex Japan is way cheaper even with that sale…just takes a couple weeks to get the parts.

@aypues , you're my hero. Not only this, but your many valuable comments on threads. Thank you. Front suspension here I come.

I have not heard of Impex, will take a look. I've used Amayama before with good success, but prefer to stay in the US if possible (though I get the irony since I bought a fully Japanese-built car.) Hypocrate, whatever.

I'm trying to order rear struts, but the website doesn't give me the option to add them to cart! Any ideas?

Send them a message from the menu after you log in to your account with the parts #’s and they will manually add them to your cart.
