Yes everything in moose land is expensive. Speaking of which I saw that the LC prices went up like 3k since last year.

LC convertible starts at 130k now.

+20-30% sales and 'luxury' taxes, right?

Just get it loaded with any and all options and be done with it. They're all good!

Agree.....don’t think Lexus sells an LC that doesn’t come with options…..Most of the basic one are baked in!

^^^^Back in 2019 when I was looking I came across a used 2018 LC off Lease. It had only one option, an LSD. No packages and no other options. It was a stripper.

A quick word about realistically being able to get the 20-inch wheels.

The vast vast vast majority of LCs leaving the factory are on 21's. You occasionally get some light / no options cars on 20's, but any car with more than a couple of options is going to come on the 21's. Trust me, I've been looking for a set of the factory 20's for over a year and they're practically impossible to find. So I wouldn't hold your breath on getting this car with 20's, if you want other options. There are 155 new LCs on CarGurus and the only ones on a set of factory 20's are stock photos for inventory with no real photos yet.

I'll still buy a set of factory take-off 20's but I don't mind the 21's now that I've had my LC for a year.

My 2018 LC came with forged 20s. It took me forever to well them with almost new tires. Here's a post I made in 2020:

A couple of nibbles that didn't turn out. Also a couple of folks trying to scam. A friend even tried to sell them for me on Facebook. I renewed the add on Craigslist a couple of times and after eight months I finally got a call from a guy with a late model LS. I got $500. for 'em and was happy to see them go
20" wheels from a late model LS500 will fit the LC.
