Overall, thanks for your comments. I have the aggravation of replacing my personal property in the car. I am very fortunate that I have a very accommodating dealer, it really one of the reasons that I love to stay and deal with one dealership. I guess they consider me a good customer.

Hypothetical question ... what difference would it have made if your vehicle had been stolen while it was at the Lexus dealership rather than at a detailing shop? It sounds like your dealership is indeed very accommodating, but would they have done more if it happened on their property? That was a factor in both of our replacements, especially the vandalism incident.

P.S. It would be interesting to know which insurance company paid for the replacement ... the dealership's, the detailer's ... or yours!

Lexus has replaced two vehicles for me although neither was for theft. In both cases, there were defects or damages and in one case vandalism while at the dealership. We refused to accept the return of our vehicles and after some negotiation with the dealership they were replaced.

At the present time, it looks my car, business and homeowners insurance companies are all gathering to go after the detailer's insurance company. Lexus financial will likely also go after them as well due to the gap coverage provision.

That's a frightening story. I drove my wife's LX to work in Philadelphia this morning. While waiting to make a left turn, I noticed someone driving slowly and intently checking out my car. I don't usually pay attention to that kind of thing, but this time it gave me an uncomfortable feeling. I just noticed this thread from last week. I’ll definitely mention it to her.
Our LX is white with tan interior. It looks sharp, but I think I prefer the black like yours. It’s nice you were able to get a new one without too much trouble.

Well, I was called by my insurance company that my Silver '13 LX570 was officially declared as a total loss.
They will now settle with Lexus Financial.
Interesting tidbit, on February 19th, the car received a parking ticket in Elizabeth (NJ), was notified 8 days later.
Last week caught a guy driving a Porsche SUV, apparently the only one reported stolen in New Jersey, the police are trying that this guy was part of the gang that stole my car.
Now I have the unpleasant experience of dealing with my homeowner and business insurance to try to get the contents of the vehicle covered.
I am glad that I got my replacement LX so quickly.

What is next, I have always had a performance based convertible and the IS is nice, but not exactly fit the description. My choice narrows to the Mercedes SL, Jaguar, BMW M6, Maserati Gran Turisimo, and Porsche 911 cab.
Lexus does not make such a car at the present time. After looking carefully at all of the vehicles, I chose the Mercedes roadster.
