Welcome and congratulations! I got you added to the list!
Congrats! What trim level/color are you planning on going with?
Hoping to get an Overland+ Earth color if its not outrageously expensive or incredibly marked up by the dealer.
For those who pre-ordered at Longo Lexus in SoCal, did you guys get some kind of receipt for your deposit? I have been chasing the internet advisor ever since I paid but he won't respond or give me my number in the queue for some reason.
Yes, I got a receipt, but I had to chase my sales rep too. Give them a call, and ask for one. I think they have taken several hundred deposits.
Thank you - yeah finally got the receipt. Looks like I am going to be in for a looooong wait...currently #400 in the line lol!
Wow, that's crazy! I hope Lexus can keep up with demand.
I read a while back that the allocations per dealer was something like 10 each every two weeks or so. Does anyone know the true allocation process for Lexus dealers?
I really don't think anyone knows what allocations are going to be just yet. I would imagine higher volume dealerships will get more stock because of their proven ability to move cars. I doubt a small market store is going to get the same allocation a large metro market dealer will.
I've been thinking about waitlists lately. I think the long lists are making us all believe there is a huge clamor for the vehicle. While I do believe the GX and LC 250 are going to be HUGE sellers, I think there may be a buyer bias in favor of MSRP dealerships which makes waitlists seem exceptionally long. Just a thought.
What color are you wanting?
Absolutely. I've contacted a several and only one dealer near me do not charge a markup but has a long waitlist. The other dealers know it too and mention as much to me. I pretty much told them to get lost since I'm in no rush to get a new vehicle. I'm fine to wait and not pay an unknown amount of mark up. I waited 5 months for my 2021 Gladiator. Looks like I may have to do the same for the GX.
I initially went to the Greenville, SC Lexus dealer back in August and they told me that there would be a $5,000.00 mark up on my deposit to hold a OT+. I said no and found a dealer in Atlanta who said MSRP. They have my deposit and fully refundable.

Placed my non-refundable deposit yesterday for a Luxury +. Was #8 on the list at my local dealership. They just began accepting deposits. Inventory Manager couldn't confirm where I fall with allocations.
Congrats and welcome to the forum! I'm waiting to hear how I fall within the allocations. What other options are you considering?
Got placed on the order list yesterday. My configured vehicle is Overtrail + with Earth exterior, Chateau or Black Olive interior. No deposit required. I'm sure I'm at the bottom of the list so not expecting the vehicle until maybe quarter 3 or 4.
That's going to look great! It should be well worth the wait!
I had two dealers tell me that most deposits where NOT on Overtrail+. I too am getting an OT+ w/Chateau. They told me there were ~40 ahead of me, but only 3-4 OT.
I'm on a list in Southern California's Longo Lexus. I put in my deposit on September 5th and I'm number 353 for an Overtrail+. I've contacted a few of other dealerships in the area and none of them are taking deposits.
I put in my deposit back in May before the reveal. I am not sure where on the list I am though but expect to be in the first or second allocation. I am still torn between Overtrail and Premium+.
Not expecting off-roading except on rare occasions, love the look and wheels/tires of Overtrail and the options on the Premium+. The Overtrail+ seems like a good spot but the $10K difference (with options according the circulating allocation table) seems excessive to me. So not really sure yet.
