^^ wait, that doesn't seem right - your display was showing "Parking Support Brake malfunction, visit your dealer" - You would get that message with your key in the ignition?

I could be wrong. Picture taken 5 minutes off trailer. Dealer must have fixed it. Sorry for the confusion.

It's fun how detailed members are. I added the image to show 4 miles on the odometer. Given the interest in our cars, we review all details and ask many questions. Loving it.

My gut was right though. I really love the way it looks. You can definitely still see through it but you can still tell it's tinted. Best of all, this top of the line film rejects 54% of solar energy, which is even more than most darker films.
Just curious, what did you end up paying for Stratos there? I was quoted $549 for Stratos here but I ended up going for Pinnacle for $349 and I have no complaints. It was computer cut and the cheapest Pinnacle installation in my entire county and their work was great. I just couldn't justify the extra $200 for only a tad more heat rejection.

If its was this fresh off the truck, it's because the car had yet to be PDI'ed. Part of the PDI test drive involves driving in a straight line for 300 feet in order to calibrate the PKSB sensors.

Default 2022 Lexus is500 Brochure

A brochure that's difficult to obtain. Questionable photography on my part

$650 for my Stratos. You got a great deal. How dark do you go?

Sweet ride! How many miles from your dealer to home and who is your dealer?

Be sure to check out and vote on the color poll if you already haven't.

I live in Tulsa, Ok. There is a dealership here, but they haven’t got any IS500s in besides their two launch editions. I ended up going to Eskridge Lexus in OKC. I like it was like 140something mile drive. I was just topping off the tank tbh.
