Mine requested $5k and stated it was non-refundable, though im sure if something fell through with the financing, so long as I purchased a different car from the dealership, that $5k isn't disappearing, especially for a repeat customer.

 

I dont believe the "non-refundable" is actually legal.

 

I'm almost three months post-bespoke order and still haven't received anything from Lexus corporate. Beginning to lose hope of getting a '26.

 

No need to lose hope!

I have had multiple dealers tell me this week they have had Bespoke Orders in for 1-3mos and Lexus hasn't approved anything yet.

I am guessing that due to Toyota'a manufacturing processes they are waiting as long as possible to get a bunch of orders so they can get parts ordered and get to crankin' them out. They have probably been concentrating on getting the Inspiration Series models out as they all have the same parts.

And if we look at LC production (which usually happens 2mos before the sales) you will see that they don't usually get crankin' until Nov-March for the LCs.
