Has anyone managed to find any in their area? A local dealer told me that no dealerships have them and it would have to be special ordered. My only feasible choice would be to go with an IS350 with ML (according to him).

I m looking for the same thing. But the dealership told me most of the is200t doesn't come with the ml system, and most of the is350 will come with that.

That's a total bummer. Do you think it's because the IS200T is still new and maybe it'll come out in mass in a few more months?

Nathan901

I don't think so. Actually there is lots of 200t coming out right now, but the dealership told me they don't even hv one with ml. I think Lexus just wanna push you to hv a 350 if u want the ml. BTW did u try the ml? Is it so much better than the normal one!?

You know what... no I haven't. Now I'm kind of hoping the ML isn't much better.

I kind of have my eyes set on the IS200T and just want to max out the options I'm interested in.

I searched as well and dealers just didn't have them through out all of california. The non ML is decent enough though unless I'm bumping some bass heavy music.

There is a very noticeable difference between ML and Lexus' premium sound imo.

There is no pre-build IS200T or 3IS 250 that come with ML. (At least in CA)

I custom ordered my 2015 IS250 to have the ML package. It's doable if you are willing to wait 3 months for it.

That is so strange. I couldn't find an IS350 without ML at my local so-cal dealers. Most of the 350s were completely loaded (all around $50k MSRP). Lucky they were willing to take off $5k+.

I wouldn't mind the wait. Did you have to pay an extra premium to have it custom ordered?

I ran into the same issue here in Northern VA. Had to place a order for a IS 200t F Sport with ML and Blind spot monitor with Dynamic Cruise Control. Hate having to wait 3 months but I believe it will be worth it. No extra cost.

You shouldn't be paying more except for the packages you select. At the end, it's just another car to the dealership. And you can choose not to take the car if you change your mind when it arrives.

Just make sure they don't try to make you put a deposit for a custom order.

All the local dealers here gave me the same answer. No ML for is200t unless you do special custom order that can take 3-4 months.
Most of the is350 F-sport has them though.
