Our salesman emailed earlier today that our 350t Premium was arriving today. When he sent me the VIN number, I ran it through the Toyota monroney site for the sticker and found it was built in Canada and, interestingly, there is no $500 charge for Cloudburst Gray. All other numbers on the sticker were the same as they have been on other NXs, just no "Special Paint" charge.
Anyway, we're scheduled to pick it up Tuesday afternoon, the wife is looking forward to it! (Well, I guess I'm excited about it as well)

 

Currently, I think they're only up charging ultra white. CBG, and USB I think were going to be up charged, but for whatever reason aren't.

Congrats on the new ride!

 

could you please post a link for this Toyota Monroney site? Thanks

 

Try this:

Just replace the ENTER VIN section with the VIN and it should populate.

 

Our Cloudburst 450h, US sale, had the $500 upcharge. Japan built in January.

 

Interesting...

My dealer has a couple NXs in route now, I pulled the window stickers for a couple of them, the first was a CBG NX 350 premium (vin 2T2GGCEZXNC001099) made in CA, no premium paint charge.

The second one is Eminent white pearl NX 350 premium (vin JTJGGCEZ4N5003929) made in JP, does list premium paint charge.

Eminent white and ultra white are the only two colors Lexus site listed with an up charge currently. Wonder if this recently changed?

 

Thanks for info but link is incomplete

 

It worked for me. The text version of the link is abbreviated, but the link itself is good. Click on it and it will fail, but then you can modify the link to include your vin number.

​​​​​​Interestingly it worked for my 22 NX, but not my '19 IS, so they probably don't keep all vin's in that system forever.

 

Interesting.. wonder if Canada will be same...I have a CBG that should be here in early May... will be nice if Lexus Canada drops the CBG charge by then and I save $500

 

I'm in the same boat as @ct6978 , same model and manufacture date, and my window sticker was generated in early March.

When looking at some local current inventory in Los Angeles, I am seeing the same pattern that the CAN builds don't have the premium charge while the JPN ones do. Wonder if that's an error or intentional. Either way, congrats to those getting CAN builds that can avoid the cost!

 

In Japan, they obviously take $450 worth of shiny rare rocks, grind them up into small flakes, then mix that with each car's paint can, then add $50 for profit. In Canada, they recycle bottles from the staff at their plant, grind and mix those, and since it saves them $$, so no charge to the customer!

On a more serious note, for those considering the candy coat colors such as Ultrasonic Blue Mica, I had an RC with that color and got rear ended. The color was extremely difficult to match, took several return trips to the body shop.
