My new favorite color! Would love to see more of that...

 

your car didn’t come with a rear (trunk) f-sport badge??

 

2022 they removed it from the trunk of the f sport models

 

Hello new member here on forums but a member from CL Hawaii. I have a 2021 IS350 F-Sport in USB/BLACK paid under MSRP from Servco Lexus in Honolulu.
I heard in the mainland they are marking these buggers up the ying yang that’s not cool man. Clocking into CL

 

Welcome and congrats on the new ride. Yeah the markups here got old before they started. Fortunately some of us are still managing to find cars at MSRP at least.

 

Simpy fantastic! Please post a lot more pics of your USB.
And I think you are likely one of the only ones getting a new IS350 under MSRP right now. Consider yourself fortunate...

 

The IS is dirty, but just wanted to show it in its new home (well, the garage potion anyway). I look forward to being able to reliably hand-wash it again, finally.

Don't mind the weird shot which makes it look like my passenger-side mirror is missing.

 

^^ Looks great but most importantly, congrats in home ownership, best feeling in the world!!

 

Hello thanks for the message. I should have registered to club Lexus a long time ago lol. I joined the FB group of CL Hawaii awhile back though. Lots of good info here on this forum

 

Thanks man ya glad I paid under msrp and considering this is O’ahu you would think every car is marked up way over msrp here because of the cost of living but it’s opposite here Toyota/Lexus doesn’t markup here and they are the 15th largest dealer in the nation. Technically they are a distributor more than a dealer.
I ordered a IS500 and that should be coming soon I wanted more power. If Lexus would have turbocharged their 6 I would’ve kept it but we all know how Lexus is very slow to change.

 

I like that portimao blue 330i I was going to get a m340i in mineral white but the bmw stealership here in Honolulu lowballs so much that it wasn’t worth trading in my 350 no way in hell was I going to take 37500 and it being less than a year old I thought they were on crack. Although bmw here doesn’t markup either which is surprising I walked away regardless it was an insult to my car and me.
I also went to Cutter Ford which had two locations in California if you recognize the cutter name. So I think they sold those two in CA and relocated to Oahu a long time ago. These guys are greedy with a markup adjusted market value of almost 5k although they gave me a very good trade in of 43000 which is very close to msrp what I pretty much paid. I walked away from that too as it was just too much for a “Ford” mustang GT premium I can get a “Mach 1” for 53k, although it was a fun car to drive and plenty power with the 5.0 coyote but I think Lexus makes a better 5.0 302 V8. So I chose the 500 instead even though it was more expensive it’s a better car and I felt like I was downgrading if I didn’t get the Lexus.
Maybe I can lease the stang for a daily and keep the 500 as a casual driver.

Same car...
Exact wheel specs weren't shared beyond saying that they're 20"s.

Hand-washed for literally the first time today. I ran out of drying towels. Feels great to have space to wash cars properly again.
