I'll be ready to move forward ordering a new vert with delivery in thr next few months, a local dealer here in S FL said Lexus is no longer taking their orders, and they are putting addendums of $30000-$40000 when they have one to sell...although if the current state of the capital markets continues, I'm hoping this may change.

Questions:

• Are there any reputable SE US dealers who are selling new verts at MSRP?
• I'm seeing quite a wide range of times (4 mos to 1yr) here of how long it takes from ordering to delivery...what's behind this disparity?
• Has MY22 production ended?
• Any upcoming changes for MY 23? I did see these:
  2023 Lexus Teaser - Image Hints At New LC - YouTube
  Lexus Teaser Image Hints At New LC Possibly In Development (motor1.com)

They mention 2023 but don't say if it's MY23 or CY23

Thanks in advance

 

My dealers in Canada all said the same thing. If you ordered any LC past March this year, you won’t see it till likely March of next year. Thus many of them are not even taking orders.

unlike you guys down in the states, they cannot overcharge msrp in Canada.

 

Check cars.com.

Email every dealer in the entire US showing one for sale you'd take and ask for their best price and that you are ready to buy.

I live in AZ and found a dealer in IL willing to play so I bought it over the phone and paid $2k to ship it enclosed.

 

How did you email all these dealers? Must have taken some time.

 

We could use that policy here

 

There were only 15. Copy and paste.

 

Would thought there would have been quite a bit more than that, interesting.

 

There were only 15 ‘verts physically in stock in the US at the time. I got $5k off MSRP with zero dealer add-ons.

 

Check autotrader.com most dealers use that site. Even if you dont go new you can buy slightly used, under10k miles.

 

I found only one that meets my color/option choices, they won't budge from msrp and they've had the vehicle for several months.

My local dealer here in SW FL will let me know when the order banks open for MY 23, I'm working directly with the new car mgr and she thinks early fall. Also hoping for some kind of enhancements like 360 view...massaging seats would be nice too.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I am also looking at the new SL but it's timing and price remain an unknown at this point.

I'm coming out of a BMW M850 coupe...it's been a fantastic car with nearly no issues to speak of.

 

no reason to limit buying to SE dealers... i'm in FL also but bought mine from a dealer in Missouri and had it shipped to me. smooth transaction and then i just registered it in florida. i'll be taking mine to a FL dealer soon for its first service.

not sure anyone knows. lexus typically doesn't have 'next year' cars available in u.s. until november/december so i'd be surprised if '22 mfg has stopped since they only became available a couple of months ago it seems!

that video is pure speculation based on wild guesses and imo, it's pure fiction/garbage.

early fall sounds about right. as for those changes, hope springs eternal.

nice, why are you changing, because you want a convertible? (i have the lc coupe by the way).
