Default IS 350 and Ultrasonic Blue Mica

Is the IS 350 available in the ultrasonic blue mica? I was told by a dealership that USB is only available in the IS-F. The IS 350 is available in USB on the lexus site, but I was also told by this dealership that it is incorrect on the manufactures site.

Is this true?

That dealership is really stupid. Find another dealership ASAP and don't go back to this one!

Plus one. A dealership that can't tell you the proper model and color information does not deserve your presence.

Thank you guys. I was very surprised that this dealership said this. I've even seen members here with the color and model, but I just wanted to confirm.

This is the only dealership in the city. I'll have to go somewhere else I guess if they cant get me the car I want.

Anyone know the invoice price of the IS350 F Sport package with navi?

RWD 350, with nav and F-sport and no other options, is $40,954 invoice, $45,500 MSRP.

That's 2011 prices anyway, I'd guess 2012 will be like 300-500 higher.

I had a somewhat similar situation as well. A sales representative at the dealership I went to didn't even know about the 2011 F-Sport package at first. When I went to visit in person, I made sure to bring a printout from the Lexus.com options page and some car inventory printout to show him exactly what I was talking about. Then things moved forward after that.

After I got the lowering springs put on my car, I really can't go over the concrete bars in parking lots! I accidentally did last week though and I heard a scrape. Oops...

When I started looking for the F-Sport I went to the "largest" dealership in florida to see if they had the car, they didn't know what an f-sport package was until I told them... yeah, I went back to my old dealership where I got my old 250 and they helped me find my car.

Like others said, the USB is exclusive to the F line, Is-F or F-Sports only.

What "largest" dealership are you referring to? If it was JM Lexus, they are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. If anyone in Florida is looking for an F-Sport, or any Lexus model, make sure to see Aryeh Fox: (954) 969-3321

Am I the only one here that read the original post?? He said the dealership told him that USB only comes on the IS-F. If this is true, why should he be running from this dealer?
