This is a very fair video. Best point made is that we’re paying 200/300 series prices for a Prado, and dealing with AMD to boot. Going to have to wait a while for things to shake out.
A (probably naive) part of me is hoping for this. I live in New Hampshire, not a big market for luxury prices. We have literally one Lexus dealership in the state (where I'd also be visiting if I liked the GX550 overtrail enough; I do not). Because I don't care much about having a FE, patience...
I had a dealer call me yesterday, wanted a $2500 deposit to get on their list for a FE and they didn't even an allocation. Also mentioned they are adding $10k ADM to the FE if they get one.
Thanks for sharing! Not sure where this is, but with tax and other fees that's an $85k+ LC in most US states. I'm really starting to lose motivation as pricing and financing realities creep higher. I'm probably closer to waiting a year than I have been since the Aug announcement.
I'm in New Hampshire and had a sales person (at a small dealership not getting any LC allotments this year) share allotment details for other dealerships within 500 miles. 3 allotments confirmed, obviously all FE LCs -- two in ME, one in NH. They expect allotments to trickle in one at a time...
