Default When will we see the 2015's?

I remember a thread on this topic, but I don't think there was ever a definitive answer on when they would start arriving at dealerships. I have an Atomic Silver IS loaner right now and love the color. I would seriously consider trading for a '15 GS F Sport in Atomic Silver but I would want to see it first. It pops on the IS because of all the curves and creases. It may not look quite as sharp on the GS.

Any info on when the '15 GS's arrive at dealerships?

No info, but consensus seems to be '15 GS shows up in October. The two times I've seen Atomic Silver on the '15 IS, it looked good. Very complex and nice metallic sparkle. What would keep me from getting one is a sort of "gold" hue. It's a warm color, not as pure as Liquid Platinum. Will be interesting to see how it looks on GS.

I bought my 2014 very recently. When my sales guy pulled up their F-Sport inventory in the computer, there was a 2015 listed. However, he said they were still waiting for the final go ahead to start selling them. I would think it would be pretty soon.

I just lived with the Atomic Silver IS for 24 hours. The only time I ever saw a gold hue was from the rear in the afternoon. When they loaned it out to me, from the front I thought it was Nebula Gray. Most of the time it just looked like a dark silver with amped up highlights. Really nice, and I think it would look great with the Cabernet interior. It was in the garage when my GF came home and she said, "I like that. It's a dark silver."

I was at the dealer last week and they already started inventory clearance sale on 14 GS. 15 GX is also already on their way to the dealers. So GS is probably coming here soon too.

I agree on the atomic silver, I think it will look very good.. and if it was an option in 2014, I'd probably have it. With cabernet, of course!

My dealer said mid-October for the 15s to start rolling in. We got our '14 Tundra last October and they had just hit the lots as well.

The 2015 is just a 4GS with a 2015 build date, right?

Or do you mean the "mid-life update" of the traditional 7-year model cycle, which was first released about February 2012, such that the mid-life update with minor cosmetic changes & upgrades is roughly due August 2015?

The 2015 model year. I realize there will just be a few things added and the "refresh" will most likely come with the 2016 model.
