Yea all dealerships say, 'its the last one we have' or something to that effect... YET when you look at the June 07 sales reports they sold like 5k 2IS... next month they'll probally sell another 5k... Seems to be alot of 'last one we have'...

No biggie, I'm just glad you got one! Congrats!

I'll have to pick your brain about service centers and whatnot when I get down there.

Lol......it's a long story. Bottom line, experiences will vary by dealerships, some seem to genuinely want to earn your business while others forget they are selling a Lexus and not a yugo.
