I went to the dealer the other day. It’s finally in their queue. He said maybe another 3-4 Months before it’s complete. Better than the 6-9 month/ they said about a month ago. Deposit made on 1/5.

I ordered my LC in the third week of July 2021. It arrived at the dealership the third week of December 2021 as a 2022 model. Not an Inspiration model though, but hopefully still gives one an idea of the period of time a person may need to wait for an order to be processed, built and shipped.

and i don't know where you are so that doesn't help. 
finally, every dealer is different. if you're flexible or willing to buy from a dealer not near you (i had mine shipped from 900mi. away), i've no doubt you can get MSRP or less.

West Central Florida is home to BeachLand. I don't see to many of my side of the bridge, but a trip to see the Buccaneers might yield a better chance of LC sightings!!

"Gonna buy a Lucid Air instead. No BS markups, add on, or market adjustment with them. Plus I get a $7500 tax credit back."
Though still reasonably happy with my LC 'vert, I'm in a slowly deteriorating medical situation where getting in and out of the thing is nudging me to consider an alternative after only one year of ownership (and looking at the stratospheric used-car valuations). I'm also unhappy about the lack of surround-view cameras and the paucity of storage space.
Thus, I'm also deep into research on EVs, even to the extent of learning about home charging systems. Lucid is a top contender (or will be if they can boot up production and I can find one to try one for size) and I'm starting to get interested in Caddy's Lyriq. Two very different vehicles, but both with gorgeous interiors and tons of tech. (Should these EV-related posts be in a new thread?)

I wasted 3 days of my life getting the dealership info on my trade in, pictures, VIN, etc. The "upfront pricing" on Lexus Miami website for a fully loaded LC500 was $106,000+ and created my account. After they got done doing numbers on my trade in, they email me quote sheet with $20,000 in "market adjustment". So now their sale price is $126K. I told them to pound sand with this market adjustment BS. No thanks. Gonna buy a Lucid Air instead. No BS markups, add on, or market adjustment with them. Plus I get a $7500 tax credit back.

I shopped around quite a bit before buying mine a few weeks ago, the ones I looked at didn't have markups per-se, but they did tack on the paint protection, mats, etc etc. At least you get something for your money. The PPF on my car's not great, it only covers half the hood which annoys me, but I negotiated it to half what they were asking for the stuff, so there's that...
get a second quote?
