Which sales person did you talk to? I also have an active deposit at a dealer in VA that I need to get refunded.
I am keeping the black Fsport long term.
Sweet! I haven’t seen one irl but that’s what I have coming in a few weeks.On a side note I saw a Nori OT earlier and damn thats the way to goJust enough contrast with the black fender flares.
Brook Malia. She seemed pretty junior there. I just got her card and asked her that when they start getting 2-row allocations to let me know. I am not prepared to put a non-refundable deposit down without even seeing the car. Not reasonable IMO.
I am torn between the green and the earth. I have always liked the greens in 80s, Amazon green in the 200s, etc. That said, for me, the earth is a more subdue color and tones down the "Lexus-factor" in the OT giving it a more relaxed appearance, which is more appropriate to an off-road rig.
I got my OT from North Park Lexus in San Antonio for a very fair price and very good sales practices. They also did refundable deposits if you guys are willing to drive. Lakeway Lexus just West of Austin has a white OT in their showroom, but their sales people were just “okay” to deal with.
I reserved an LXOT and put a deposit of $1k, then we did the paperwork while waiting for the shipment. At that time it gave me a lot of time looking at the numbers and I felt they gave me too low for my trade and they wont budge. This is the time when the tarrif was just starting and the market is way down, so I cancelled my order and got my $1k back.
Fast forward a month, a different dealer got an LXOT on the lot, I test drove it and they gave me $2300 more for my same trade. So I went home with that LXOT.

Thanks. I think my issue is that I want the 2-row and the sales people I spoke to told me to order one of those the deposit had to be Non-refundable because they would probably have much more trouble to sell those if I back out from the deal.
I doubt that very much (at least with the OT trim) given that botched job Lexus did with the 3-row’s camel hump. It’s much more likely the OTs are bought by enthusiasts like us that actually need the space in the back, versus the soccer mom that needs a third row to carry little Tim’s teammates to and from practice/sleepover. You could easily see that with folks here that either bought 200s and immediately yanked out that third row and stored in the garage or rejoiced with the 2-row HE.

Just speaking from personal experience, we bought a 3 row because we had no car for soccer practice, and no car for off-road (other car is a coupe). Lots of households are limited to 2 car garages, don't want to deal with more than 1 car per adult, or both, and this + sports car covers pretty much all the automotive bases.
That’s also a good example. Honestly, I secretly hope the 2-rows aren’t popular and Lexus starts to discount them heavily when available. I would hunt and snatch one in a heartbeat. I wouldn't mind having the third row (even if I would never use it) if it was executed in another fashion than axing 1/3 of height space in the boot. That might have been a tough pill to swallow by whatever exec in Toyota approving those for the TNGF platforms.
