Talking Batmobile 3.0 has been BUILT! CONFIRMED

3.0 HAS BEEN BORN!

Just received an updated status today for my 14MY IS250 F-Sport:

UPDATE: 6/17/13: Your vehicle has been built and is in transit to a US port of entry. From this date, you have 4 days to modify accessories (PPOs).



WHEEL UPDATE:
6/17/13:
Order status: Machined. Blanks are now converted into wheels. Second inspection involves checking lateral and radial runout, wheel offset, and bolt pattern.
ETA: 4 Week(s) As Of 06/13

It's coming guys! It's coming!!!!

I won't reveal too much now, but wheels have already been ordered and should arrive around the same time the IS arrives. If all goes smoothly, I may just have her in time for the Pursuit this year! SO EXCITED!!!!! =]

2014 IS 250
FK: F-Sport package w/ Summer Tires
NV: Navigation
EF: Rear bumper applique

Not available to pick yet, but hoping to also add:
3P: Paint Protection Film
V4: Remote Engine Start (maybe)

I'm doing a 3 year lease, but I'll PM with details on that

I'd love a 350 but that monthly payment was a little high for me. Plus, I probably don't need that extra power anyway....I'll only get in trouble hehe

Some accessories like rear bumper applique and such are port installed accessories.
