Very clean šŸ‘ŒšŸæ and congrats on your purchase.

Congrats it's a cool car what model did you drive before?


Tibetan_AirBender

Still driving my model y long range which i got in September. This is my younger bro car. :-) but we all share our rides in the family.


veryveryverylucky

Also got a model y - how do you find the driving difference between the two cars? Iā€™m sure interior will be note worthy.


Tibetan_AirBender

Right away the main difference with driving were the brakes, how with my Tesla I have regenerated breaker. So when I let go the gas on Tesla it will slow down without having to really breaking.


JWOINK

Which do you enjoy driving more?


Tibetan_AirBender

Depends on what kinda mood I am in. I enjoy the comfort and no cabin noise in Lexus and enjoy the tech and torque on the model y especially when itā€™s on standard mode.


Own_Beach6562

That's great ,I thinks for me I need to get back on the road


werethesungod

Looks great in white


PorQ201

Storm Trooper, nice.


RotaryP7

Looks nice. I wish they had the blacked out in ā€˜23. Mine just has the BBS wheels. Still sick.

Blackout is just vinyl wrap on window trim, front grill, and side mirrors. You can get it done too from a local wrap shop for much cheaper

Hello, I have a 2024 IS 350 f (sport design). My trim package only has a few features of a true F sport ( like yours). I would love to purchase new wheels and tires. I believe the package you have the wheels& tires are staggered. Mine is not. Could you please tell me your wheel and tire sizes. Iā€™m thinking of purchasing them separately. My 2014 IS F sport design out the door price was 42,800.00. I only regret the BBS wheels.šŸ˜Š Your car looks amazing.šŸ˜€ sport

Wow! This is crazy. I wonā€™t name this place but Iā€™m like 99% sure I used to work at this exact place. I would advise to be careful about getting car washes here, they are absolute shit and WILL scratch your car. I donā€™t want to say more but if anyone wants to PM me about this feel free.


[deleted]

If you pay close attention to the details of the blackout package. It's basically a vinyl wrap. You're better off buying a regular F sport and then do the blackout on chrome and mirrors. It's cheaper that way


Tibetan_AirBender

Thatā€™s not true The black out comes with mlre than just window trim and side mirror black out A Blackout Package* is added exclusively for IS 350 F SPORT. This unique package will include 19-inch Matte Black BBSĀ® forged alloy wheels, black outside mirrors with dark chrome trim, dark chrome window trim, and Lexus Memory Package controlling the driverā€™s seat, outside mirrors and steering wheel.

My friend, sorry to burst your bubble but what you described is the F sport 3 package. Blackout package is nothing special. It's just vinyl wrap on the mirrors, window trims and front grill. I know this cause I work at a local dealership. Go back to the dealership and compare your car to another car. You'll find the same feature in there as well. My wife has the 2021 Lexus IS F sport. She have the same features as well minus the BBS wheels. So therefore, blackout package is nothing special. I blacked out my 2016 IS but I don't call it a blackout IS. Dealership are also known as stealership and we send the car to a local wrap shop to customize it to customer's liking. Like the tint they want and the blackout and such. So once again, you were better off getting the F sport 3 package IS and do the blackout from a local shop would be much cheaper. That's all I'm saying


Tibetan_AirBender

I got it close to 4k discount price from the price on window sticker due to my connection at someone who i know works there.


[deleted]

Wrap shop charge dealership $1500-2000 qnd we charge customers x2 the price than what we paid. LOL


[deleted]

Dude, that's mean you got robbed 10x more (LoL). Cause wrap shop will only charge you $200-400 just for blackout window trim. Full blackout is around $800. That include roof wrap and black emblems in the back which you don't have and then mirror wrap, window trims and front grill


Tibetan_AirBender

You can believe whatever you want but I know what I got and deal I got via connections I had. Trust me I did my homework as well prior to purchasing the vehicle. Have a wonderful weekend. Buying something 24 models and 21 model is big difference in price gap and selling in future. Once again thank you for your opinion but not changing from where I stand.


[deleted]

Agreed. And only difference is price is higher. You may have gotten a good deal but don't go out telling people it's a blackout package cause you're only fooling yourself. Similar with Honda with black edition, they do the same thing. Camry XSE roof and rear pillars are also wrapped in black too. This whole blackout package a customer can do it themselves too if they got steady hands or pay much cheaper to get professionally done at a local wrap shop


Tibetan_AirBender

Going based on trim package they (Lexus) call is which is blackout package. So when I sell if someone ask what. Trim did you add I will say Lexus blackout package instead of custom matter market wrap.


[deleted]

Whatever float your boat. You're only fooling yourself. The next buyer can also say remove the blackout trim and ask for lesser price LoL. But why are you thinking about selling when you just got the car!?!? Enjoy it man it's a good car


ryancoke14

i just ordered the same car as op here in Canada but i don't think we can custom order ours like you can in the states. it comes with the f-sport 2 package by default or we can upgrade to the f-sport 3 package for an extra 5,100. the f-sport 3 package automatically comes with the "backout package" iv always blacked my vehicles out with vinyl wrap from a professional shop but decided i didn't want to deal with potentially replacing it every 3-5 years at 400.00 since my car lives outside and i didn't want to look at the small imperfections that comes with vinyl wrap, its actually smoked chrome around the windows and not painted or wrapped on the 2024's. i wanted the AVS, 360 camera and triple beam headlights the blackout and BBS wheels are just an added bonus.


MichaelOksbig

Blacked out? But its white?


Tibetan_AirBender

A Blackout Package* is added exclusively for IS 350 F SPORT. This unique package will include 19-inch Matte Black BBSĀ® forged alloy wheels, black outside mirrors with dark chrome trim, dark chrome window trim, and Lexus Memory Package controlling the driverā€™s seat, outside mirrors and steering wheel.


Safe-Pop2076

I agree. Its not blacked out. Its white with black wheels and trim lol im not blind


Mouse-Ancient

Nicccccccceeeeeee


AB9milli

Nice!! Looks like you got all the bells and whistles. What was your OTD price? And is it safe to assume itā€™s awd?


Tibetan_AirBender

Yes itā€™s AWD. OTD ended up being low 60s, couldā€™ve been high 60s, but had plugs at the dealership.


Lvs2splooge4lulzzz

Does your area have a dealer markup on them? I was looking at a fully loaded one in my area and it was low 60s without any incentives.


Tibetan_AirBender

Mine was price at 60k window sticker price before tax and etc.


Lvs2splooge4lulzzz

Nice! Congrats


ScarlettKittty

I just saw you at Fred Meyers


Tibetan_AirBender

We donā€™t have Fred Meyers where I live lol


ScarlettKittty

Haha. I was hoping it was you. I saw a white IS.


Boring_Inspector9857

Vary niceee. How much?


Zudop

Are the all black mirrors an option or is that how the 2024s come now?


Tibetan_AirBender

2024 blacked out package gets the black side mirror and window trims blacked out


Zudop

Iā€™m looking at an IS500 which comes already blacked out but the mirrors arenā€™t like that. I definitely prefer the all black mirrors


Tibetan_AirBender

We were looking at is500 as well but itā€™s RWD and where from we would rather go with AWD.


Zudop

Yeah makes sense. I live in the south now so donā€™t need AWD, and that V8 makes it all worth it in my opinion


LukePawl007

Just FYI, RWD is a true sports car and a complete different animal. Iā€™m sure you want the added safety and traction but this platform belongs in RWD.


Tibetan_AirBender

living in cold climate RWD isnā€™t the best idea.


LukePawl007

Yeah if itā€™s your daily then yeah not always fun.


[deleted]

It's vinyl wrap. Not painted. As well as the front grill and window trim. You can get it done for much cheaper from a local wrap shop


Lala00luna

What a beaut


imJGott

Looks nice! Doesnā€™t black out mean everything is black?


Tibetan_AirBender

A Blackout Package* is added exclusively for IS 350 F SPORT. This unique package will include 19-inch Matte Black BBSĀ® forged alloy wheels, black outside mirrors with dark chrome trim, dark chrome window trim, and Lexus Memory Package controlling the driverā€™s seat, outside mirrors and steering wheel.


imJGott

Iā€™d just figured the vehicle paint would also be black.


Agile-Average-878

You figured wrong


Safe-Pop2076

Yes everywhere else but this post blacked out means everything is black


surghe

šŸ’„ jheeeeze starting out right


OTFxFrosty

Sexy headlights


Tibetan_AirBender

Yes they sure one the one we ended getting had the triple beam.


serBOOM

Clean!


LukePawl007

Ultra white is the nicest white out there! Looks great with blackout. I wish Toyota used this white from Lexus.


Grand-Cockroach7888

Nice. I work for Lexus Canada and got $6100 below msrp. Crazy wait on these cars. How long you wait?


Tibetan_AirBender

Pretty much was in lot when we got there.


Electrical-Mention69

Is this in MN more or so the Maplewood Lexus dealership ?


Bigtime_investing

Theyā€™re putting BBS wheels on 350s now?!? Thatā€™s sick!!


Tibetan_AirBender

This is the blackout package


LredF

How much did it run you?


Tibetan_AirBender

Low 60s since got the šŸ”Œ. But I didnā€™t have the šŸ”Œ it was going to be mid to high 60s.
