Default A long wait has become a short wait, IS350 inbound

Score another one for Kuni Lexus - the deal was incredible, and particularly after not even getting called back after 3 in-person visits to Johnson Lexus in Durham, NC, I'm happy to give them my business.

The paperwork's off - let the shipping begin.

IS 350 SGM/Black (I know, shut up, it's beautiful. That's why everyone has it)
Sport / Nav / ML
35% tint (NC legal limit)

The lighted door sills and XM have been ordered along with the all-weather mats and the dog protection system(tm)

Pics when it gets here.

The dog protection system is that stupid (but it's a great idea) nylon hammock that covers the back seat... https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=196886

MSRP was 44.2k, I paid 38.9k + TTL and shipping, so 41k OTD. Apparently they made a mistake when quoting a price to me, but they honored it. Was a far better deal than anyone else I had contacted.

Great choice of colors/options! That is the exact car I would have gotten if it had been available back in November when I picked mine up. When are you expecting to take delivery?

Attack7: Congrats on getting such a great price on your car. Would you mind telling me who you worked with at Kuni. Thank you.

I bought mine there as well. Charlie Mullison was my salesman. Give him a call, he will treat you right.

You know, it's funny. I've driven past lots of other 2IS's around here, but not one, yet, has been SGM like mine. All either Crystal White, Glacier Frost Mica or Black Onyx.

attack7 - your car arrived last week when I was on the phone with Charlie, you lucky bastard.

I'm also ordering from Kuni and adding to the tree in the Lexus Amazon forest of SGM/Black. Since that is the only color Lexus seems to like building with Sport + ML. Mine should arrive at Kuni between 6/9-6/14. Now that I see you got yours I can hopefully expect to get mine soon.

Charlie owns. Best car experience I've ever had. Even with $1K shipping to ATL, I'm still saving $3K on what I would have buying it around here. Straight up and honest.

Before everybody gets excited about ordering Sport + ML, Charlie told me the 2 cars he was getting was the last 2 allotments for Sport + ML for 2006.. do not know if that is for his region or not.

If Phil_350 got a commission from the ppl he's sent over to Charlie, he'd probably have a lot full of 350s.
