Yes, They told me 8-12wks. Maybe sooner if they are able to modify a car that is due to be allocated to them first. This is my 3rd RX that will be buying. The other two were also special orders and two months was the average wait time.

The $1400 All-Weather Drive Performance Credit (All-Wheel Drive) has been on the Lexus build site from the beginning. Just means if you are buying the non F Sport hybrid you get AWD 450h for the same base MSRP as FWD 450h. Base MSRP for both is $52,235. See attached part of my window sticker showing the credit ($53,635-$1400=$52,235). The credit is automatic, before negotiating further dealer discounts off the MSRP window sticker.

Hi Vincent,
I am not 100% certain on what the MSRP of my special order will be until it goes into production and a VIN is issued. However, I was able to build a fully loaded F Sport on a non-lexus site (KBB, True-car) and they seem to be coming in at around $64K with all the options that I want. Dealer invoice is about $4K less than MSRP on average on the RX. So, I'll be coming in at around $58-59K when is all said and done or $5K less from MSRP. I'm not sure why some dealers are more greedy than others. Here in Chicago I made a call to two dealers. The first dealer wanted $1000 over invoice. For some people that is a great deal... but as much as I like this car...it is just that-- a car. So, I tried again with a dealer out in the Chicago Suburbs and they didn't even haggle when I asked them directly for invoice price. At this time a week or so had past since I didn't get back to Dealer #1. The sales manager called me to asked why I never went through with the order and I told him that another dealer was willing to go at invoice. Dealer #1 did not want to loose my business and told me to come in and that he will make sure I would leave happy. So, I did and within 15 min they agreed to $1,000 UNDER invoice. Basically $2K less than his deal that he wasn't originally budging from. Here in the Chicago area there are a handful of Lexus dealers and they compete for customers and will not be undersold by the other. I'm not sure how it is where you live. But maybe it will be worth to buy out of state if it means savings $4-5K off the car that you want. It doesn't matter where you buy since you will taxed based on where you live. Good luck with your search and hope you are able to find a dealer that is not so greedy

I feel like you, it's just a car. That is why I didn't jump on it yet. The dealers around here are not customer friendly, they feel that Lexus will sell itself so they don't have to give any more discount then they have to. I went thru this already back in 2014 for a ES300h, ended up going out of state in CT to buy the same car the dealers around here located. Got a great deal but now that dealer will not give me the same discount on a special order. Just have to be patient and wait I guess.

I just bought mine AWD with the Premium Package for $53,300 OTD in Northern California. I want to say I got a good deal since I called all the other dealerships in the area and they all said if you can really get it at that price, I would ****** it up.

Yes, I built it on several car buying sites to confirm the data before my purchase. I am asking previous buyers if purchasing at invoice with these options is a good buy.

I think that's pretty decent. Do others find it more difficult to deal on 450s vs 350?
