Make sure they have it flat bedded there and not send some sales guy to drive it back and rack up miles and mcdonalds fries under your new car seats.

THIS! A friend of mine does dealer trades for Audi and sometimes I go along with him. He's pretty careful but we ALWAYS manage to get a chip in the windshield or on the front end. It's just what happens when you are in a rush and on the highway so make sure you insist on a flatbed. I don't know if you plan on having paint protection film ("clear bra") applied or not but if you do it's especially important to keep the front end perfect.

Why are you asking here? Ask the dealer. There are a ton of factors playing into this. No one on here can give you an accurate answer unless they work for that dealer. Source: I do work for a Lexus dealership.
