IS Loaner?
I usually get an ES350. My dealership only has two IS loaners and they're always booked... No worries, just makes me appreciate my IS350 a little more. Next time, I want to try the new RX or the RX Hybrid. My wife loves her '05 RX and we're thinking about an upgrade.
In El Paso I've gotten an RX and ES no ISs that I've seen. They are a very small dealership. They share the service bay with Toyota. In San Antonio I got an ES. My car is at Sewell in Dalls right now getting some work done but I didn't get a loaner because I actually live in El Paso and left my car there for a few weeks. I have never seen a bigger dealership than Sewell Lexus.

I've only had to get a loaner once, when they did the fuel rail recall. Took my Tungsten Pearl IS350 in and got a Tungsten Pearl IS250 as a loaner. It didn't have any options on it and was boring to drive compared to the 350. But I liked the color.

It's amazing how different dealerships are. I can get whatever car I want as a loaner as long as I ask ahead if time. I get breakfast and free titleist pro v1x also.
My dealership is hands down the best which is why I went back after I bought a BMW.
Sometimes there labor is high like on the springs but oh well at least I'll have a full warranty.
I want an isc next time I think.
