I ordered mine on March 10. The dealer said that it would come in 3-4 months. Still waiting...

I hope it does come in during May, and that the dealer wasnt just saying that to make you feel better...I know a few people werent given correct estimates on when their cars would hit the dealership lot. Although thats a really fast arrival of a custom order, maybe they just happened to of found the exact same car in an allocation, if so, luckyyy

You ordered it in March and it will be at your location in a couple of weeks?Try a couple of months if i'm not mistaken.4-5 months is usually the wait time,in your case it would be about 3 months.If you do get your car in 3 months i'll be totally surprised.

I don't know this as a fact but since they don't sell (relatively) a lot of IS's they probabaly hold all the orders until they get a critical mass and then turn on the line and produce the cars. I doubt the line is running continuously. That's probably the reason for the varying wait times.

I test drove the car I walked off the lot with ... bought it on Tuesday, got it on Thursday... Lucky me..

Got mine today so I am done with the wait! Mine was part of April allocation - arrived in LA Port on 4/11 and made it to Austin on 4/25. I got it tonight !

I did not special order but I sure thought about doing it. Even though I did not get my initial choice of color or options I love it to death. I do not regret switching off to another car to get one at all! Any IS350 is a great car!

Talked to my salesman (who never told me anything that did not happen so I totally believe him) and he said 90 -120 days for IS350 special order.

He also said that his dealership is just now starting to get different kinds of options etc. For example, they got their first sport package in with my shipment which was a special order. So perhaps the gates are opening a little!

If that sprts pkg was a special order, how is the dealer getting new option combos

FastGirl

I mean that in the context that they have never gotten a sports package delivered ever. Special order or allocations.

Mine was ordered on 1-18. Dealer called Thursday with the vin. I've confirmed that its on a train out of Portland headed for Kanas City. Dealer says I should have it between 5-4 and 5-11. Its been a long wait. But I know it will be worth it.

The day I called to confirm, my salesman was out, so I spoke to the manager. He was the one who pulled it up in the computer and gave me the dates, etc. They have been totally up front and honest with me so far, they even tried to talk me out of things like ML and ground effects, they felt it wasn't worth the price. They also told me about a custom order place with them in October, just came in last week He pulled up my order and we verified everything, which is lucky because somehow the ground effects pkg. dropped out, but, since it is installed at the port, we got it covered in time. They are a smaller volume dealer, so, if they lie and **** off their customers, they have a lot more to lose than dealers in a larger urban area. Their goal has to be repeat customers. However, they are given estimated dates, he cannot control the boat and the delivery truck...hope I get lucky .

I'm in kind of a different situation. I have to sell my G before I can 'order' the IS. Just paid off the loan so I'm a little cash poor at the moment. However, I do feel fortunate that I should be able to get what I want with just an 8-10 day advanced notice (according to my salesman) if they don't have it on the lot already.

Patience is key to receiving a vehicle without problems.

Put my deposit down on 4-27. I was told the vehicle would be in 2-4 weeks..Looking at these threads it seems as though it could be MUCH longer..
