Woohoo!

Just got confirmation today from my Manager buddy at my local Lexus dealer that my IS500 build order has been processed,and my car is scheduled for an early November build. Haven’t had a new car since my ‘16 350 FSport(which I still have),so this is gonna be fun.

New design is better. Did they give you a choice of going with the base wheels? Just curious because in 2024 it seemed like the vast majority were optioned with the BBS. If they shared, are the base wheels still gunmetal and the BBS still black?
