Just placed my order
Just realized the fact that I couldn't find the IS I want anywhere in the states. So sadly I special ordered one today and who knows when I will see it. Even the dealer couldn't tell!!! I hate waiting with no dates. Can you help me please to have an estimate with recent IS orders. Please don't say four months :-)

What are the particulars of your order?

3 to 4 months is the wait and possibly longer if you run into situations at the port. My car arrived at Portland port 12/6 and it took them 12 days to get it on the rail. Dealer said another 2 weeks to arrive at the dealer so just this part of the process took a month for me.

Al, since we both live in colorado and we both special ordered i hate to tell you this but it will be every bit of 4 months for you because you missed the 17th of the month deadline. your order will not even be entered into the system until the 17th, and then its a 90 day wait from there at least.

You should have confirmation for your order and perhaps even a build date and perhaps even a ship date. If your dealer isn't providing this information you may have ask like I had to.

Even if one assumes that the order was "officialy" precessed on 10/20, it has been about two months. I would think that the build week for your car should be coming right up. Your dealer will be notified when the production day(s) is set, so I would contact them tomorrow if I were you.

Thank you all for sharing your experiences and thoughts about my question and sorry for my late reply as this is my season in traveling around. In fact I am writing from the air plane heading to NYC.
The good news is, my dealer just confirmed that they already submitted my order before the deadline of DEC 20th. However, they saying the order have been accepted by Lexus but it showing as "On Hold" no one sure why. Also, they couldn't confirm the build and delivery dates. The manager is saying 60 days...! :-)
Comparing to what you guys gone through I feel this salesman is not honest somehow. I already have put my deposit tho. Will I have the right to take my deposit back if they took more than 60 days to deliver the car?

Most special orders discussed on this forum have taken between three and four months. I ordered my car on August 13th and took delivery on December 11th. I wanted AWD and ML, not a combination routinely sent to the Northeast, so I had to order. Long wait to be sure, but worth it to get what I wanted. What are the particulars of your order?
F Sport
BSM
ML
PCS
Ultra white exterior
Black interior
Wasn't sure tho about the power sunshade so didn't add it, since I felt it's more luxurious option and might be weird to have it on a F sport packaged car. Also, I hate any minimal noise on brand new car haha
