Turned Down an LS600hL Yesterday
Yes, you read the thread title correctly. Apparently, and quite unexpectedly, I am now #1 at my dealership for a hybrid LS. All the folks ahead of me gave up on waiting and either went for the LS460 or another brand. So my salesman called me yesterday and said a smoky granite mica LS600 showed up on their lot and it had the light gray interior (which I absolutely want). I went to take a look at it, but the smoky granite, while attractive, is just too... plain for such an elegant car.
So I turned it down and whoever's next on the list got a call. Certainly someone with different taste in colors from me is going to be very happy with this unexpected car delivery!

The Dark Brown Ash Burl that comes with the Alabaster leather shown below is a lot darker than above, it looks close to black in the shade or indoors.
Yes, I wish they would at least allow us to switch the wood/leather color combinations around for factory orders.

well if you get a car this price range, for sure get what you want!!!!!!
i saw a 600hl at dealership yesterday. blk/blk ls600hl exec package
PERFECT for me and it wasn't taken. too bad i don't have the money 120k msrp, 6k 18" chrome wheels, 1500 tint (yes, you read that right), and lojack.
and then the funny thing is, written in bolt "10,000 mark up"
can they do that?!

Was this a delivery (attempted, I guess) of a non-launch car? In other words, can we confirm that non-launch cars are being delivered?
Which dealership was this?
My dealer is still clueless as to delivery. I can't get an estimate of what month, even.

Yeah, that's what I chose.

Hi All:
My non launch edition has been at the dealer since late last week. Arrives tomorrow. Not quite the colors I wanted but a close second.
They ARE arriving.

I would have turned down the SGM as well. An exclusive car should be bought in the exclusive color which is Black Opal. Thats the only color I would get the 600h in (and the only Lexus model where its offered).

I won't go for just exclusivity had they make a yucky or just so-so color exclusive to the 600hL . . .
