This color looks great! Notice that yours came with bridgestone. I wonder is it random???
The differences between our window sticker are, mine is AWD. Heated and ventilated front seats $640, all weather floor mats with cargo mat $190, two-tone instrument panel N/C. It doesn't have your towing pkg, power folding rear seats

It does have the power folding rear seats and heated and ventilated seats. I like the Weathertech products for floor and cargo area, still none listed at their site but sure they will be soon. It also has the granny cooler, heavy alternator for towing, just lacks the receiver which will be installed at the 5k.

Not a fan of Brigstone but these seem to be good enough. Michelins will replace them one day.

Wonder if they would switch out the Bridgestones for Michelins? I had Bridgestones on my ES and hated them. Traded them in on Pirellis after 6 months.

I would rather have the Michelins but they are quiet and handle well. Checked on then Tire Rack website and these particular tire go a decent rating. When replacement times comes I will check out other options.

As far as switching them out, I have had them change out entire wheels before but due to the low inventory of Luxury units, that was not possible.

I thought they were all supposed to come with a new Michelin tire that was specially developed for the car according to all the initial information . In Australia they all seem to be coming through with Dunlops and Bridgestones .....

Out of curiosity, do you happen to know what is behind the colored plastic inserts on the wheels (thanks for the great close-up pic BTW)? I wonder if they could be left off and what the wheel looks like without them?

I do not know. It looks to me that they are locked on by the lug. I was going to remove mine until I saw them in real life and they do not bother me.

Looks like everyone in NY paid MSRP? I don't see anything come up for Costco discount around here. There is an F sport 83 miles away in the nebula gray, but no Lexus safety system+.
