IDK, mine had all if the above except the carbon and TVD. Mine was MRSP around $75k as I remembered.

Eitherway, for the OP..... GO FOR IT!!! USB is an amazing color and changes shades as you walk around thd car bc light hits thd car at different angles both night and day. Mine is Ultra White which is also one of the "special colors " and at the time it was "that RC-F " OR no special deal discounts due to its CPO status. So I went for it and never looked back.
Mine as well..He might not have a sunroof/moonroof, just base wheels, Lux and and no Triple LEDS

Do you have the premium package in your car?

leather, nav with ML, premium, and moonroof

thought the moonroof came standard. Guess Lexus is copying the Germans with their ridiculous options boosting sticker price by at least 10k

Nah, they got a long ways to go . . . I had a Cayenne once with $31k in options and $10k for a German car is pretty dang stripped down. Some model Porsches charge you for climate control, floor mats . . .

i know. But Lexus didn't do that in the past. They all came with basic standard features like sunroof for free.

wonder how much those factory options are worth when selling the vehicle. After market parts are worth pennies on the dollar at resell

the ML is worth every penny in the small cabin of the RC. Was thinking about installing an alpine sub in the trunk, but the 835 watts (400 rms) ML does the job and gives enough kick.

Agreed. Totally worth it. And I can tell you that Lexus is improving the ML experience. The ML system in my RC-F has better bass than the ML in my IS-F. It is also less tin can sounding..

The price I negotiated is 55,000 plus dealer fee of 699 and tax and tag. 17k off seems like a good deal to me but I just wanted to run it by the experts before I purchase a 15 instead of a 16, also do you know what was changed from 15 to 16?
so did you pull the trigger?

not much and Porsche has a pretty low cap on what they residualise on a lease so they also recognize that options to a degree do not increase used values.
