Part 4......

 

Marc Berger - You are our HERO!!!

 

This is great! Thanks so much for posting!

Not looking a gift horse in the mouth at all, just more curious if there are higher tiered packages. In the Canada brochure Lexus lists packages like luxury, premium and executive. I only see the comfort and luxury packages on these lists.

Are here higher level option packages or do we need to add things individually? I'm specifically lookong at the lane departure, park assist and forward collision intervention. If those aren't in a readily accessible package I will actually have to order from my dealer instead of trying to get one off the lot. That would stink for us and them since we usually get out of our leases a bit early since we have such low mileage and equity and we get something moved off of the dealer's lot. Guess we'll have to see. Timing might be ok since we'll have plenty of time to preorder and wait before our lease expires next spring/summer.

Thanks again! Great stuff!!

 

Thank you for the info. Looks like they kept the base & luxury packages down by breaking out a few things. It's a pretty reasonable price. I'm seeing a pretty loaded AWD 200t as under $48k. Not sure if I'm duplicating any options below, but here's what I would probably buy. Not bad for the money.

$35,880 - base AWD 200t No F-Sport
$4,885 - Luxury package (LL)
$220 - WirelessPhone charger (CG)
$150 - EC Mirror (EC)
$400 - Power Fold Rear Seats (FS)
$1,160 - LED Headlamps w/ auto high beam (IL)
$250 - Land Departure Warning (LK)
$2,140 - Nav & 10 speaker audio (NV)
$660 - Outer Mirror Memory, reverse tilt, EC, BSM (OQ) -unless this is included in the above stuff?
$500 - Park Assist (PA)
$400 - Power Back Door (PB)
$900 - Pre-Collision System and all speed cruise (PS)
---------------------------------------
$47,545

 

I can save you $550 off the bat as EC is included in the OQ ($660 component) & PB (power back door) is part of the LL package.

 

Nice I figured I was duplicating some stuff

 

I should have posted...
"I (think) can save you $550 off the bat as EC is included in the OQ ($660 component) & PB (power back door) is part of the LL package. Like you, I am just a consumer trying to build our order as well and I noticed those two are ones I was able to remove in my similar configuration"

 

$39,720 - base 300h (FWD)
$4,505 - Luxury package (LL) includes the following options: CP, EH, FL, HT, PB, WR
$2,140 - Nav & 10 speaker audio (NV)
$660 - Outer Mirror Memory, reverse tilt, EC, BSM (OQ)... why aren't these ALREADY in the LL?
---------------------------------------
$47,025

The following are REQUIRED but noted above because it appears they are already included in the base Hybrid model
IL - LED Headlamps w/ auto high beam
LK - Land Departure Warning

We would like these but not certain we would be willing to pay the associated costs:
$500 - Park Assist (PA)
$900 - Pre-Collision System and all speed cruise (PS)

 

I'm thinking about just getting a 200t F sport.

Still waiting for the price in Canada.

 

that is exactly what i am thinking about getting, can you get the negotiated price and let me know, save me the hassle!��
what color?

 

Glad to help!

I would anticipate higher prices for CANADA. especially for the ML.

 

White exterior, grey Interior. We may have one on order this week but any discount I would get would (likely) be via friends and family so I could not help you there. However, if we decided not to buy it once it got here, I could point them to you but would bet that you would have to pay retail (don't forget to add the $925 "destination" charge to that figure)

 

I'll be placing an order for mine. The dealer allocation for the F-sport has navi and I have no desire to pay two grand for something I get free on my phone. Also Ultrasonic Blue is looking like a rare color.

Just trying to decide if I want to pay the extra 800 for AWD. Seems like a small price to pay for that upgrade.

 

$800 for AWD is definitely worth it. I am in CA too and it doesn't snow here but there were so many times my X5's AWD saved me from an accident. A few years ago I drove up to Yosemite in January. There was a patch of black ice on the road invincible to the eyes. We were not driving fast..about 20 mph.. and I can feel the AWD kicks in as soon as I feel the lost of control. And right behind me.. the FWD minivan skated straight to the side of the mountain.

Yeah AWD may lost a few MPG over the FWD, but safety is more important to me.

 

Is the Park Assist the one where you get to see your car from above? Or we don't get that option in the US?
