Default Spotted a LS 600h L on the 57 North

I spotted a LS 600H L on the 57 North in Orange County . Nice shiny black one. I thought these weren't supposed to be out yet. I checked the Lexus site and it says nothing.

It's probably a company tester...I think most or all the sold LS 600h Ls are the Launch Edition, of which there is at least one owner from the SoCal region on this board who has taken delivery. But all those vehicles are Launch Edition, Truffle Mica color.

I saw a Launch Edition in SoCal several days ago as well.

I don't suppose any of the non-Truffle Mica vehicles will have the special launch wheels?

I was at Longo Lexus for my oil change yesterday and they said they have had 3 of them go through there for sale. My understanding was that they were out?

Yep I was at Longo downstairs yesterday. I saw an Obsidian Black LS600hL. Sticker was for $115. It was already pre-sold.

Anyone know if the non launch editions are Premium Package II or Executive Class seating Package II? I've heard that only the rear seat recliner models are coming available. Has anyone seen a non launch edition without the reclining back seat?

I saw one at my work in Garden Grove. It was Truffle Mica and it had Longo plates.

when you said without reclining seat, do you mean no reclining at all or no exec package (with massage)?

All - I'm sorry. I meant ottoman. Has anyone seen a non launch edition with the three person back seat, rather than the Exec package (ottoman and massage)? I was told the early arrivals only have the ottoman (4 passenger back seat). The Lexus website doesn't even allow this option on the "Build it" area.

Anyone know more details?

In Canada, I've already seen 600hL's with both the Exec.Package & the 5-seat configuration.

Can anyone from Longo confirm the LS hybrid packages they have seen arrive?
