No chance to get one. I was told if I want to lease and can wait 2 years+ I might get the chance to get allocation. I'm buying the GX550 instead, still a year+ wait.

Dang, need a new car and was pretty set on the LC. No dealerships were taking deposits for the last few months

I heard 2 year wait as well. I would get one of the last 4Runners in the meantime if you needed a car asap

Leveraged a sales connection with a guy I used to work with and he queued me in. I doubt I'll be first in line, but they're one of the ones not taking deposits. Talked to him three days after the release presser.
I'm looking for poverty spec or FE anyways, I prefer the round headlights and no sunroof so the ballers can have the bar headlight allocations.

Dealer I got in line with told me to pick a colour and trim. The order guide for Canada got floated around the LC forums, and I was sent a copy as well.
Going 1958 edition in Brown Sugar Metallic, which is supposedly the initial Meteor Shower in the press releases.

Looks like 57k USD is the round headlight, 61k for the bar headlight, and 75k for FE.
Thoughts on this starting at 65k CAD, or are we staring at 70k+? I'm shooting low because of the 86k floor on the GX550.

A LOT of people are gonna walk away from this, they put their name and deposit down because they're excited, but when they see 7.5% financing they'll nope tf out so fast, I think you won't have much trouble getting your allocation lol

I can stomach less even with the rates, but not at that price lmao.
At that point I'll either wait for the 4runner or do something else entirely.

I didn't even think about that. The PST is 10%, but it's not like most cars are in that wheelhouse now anyways.

23mpg combined from a 4cyl hybrid?!
i fail to see the appeal over the lexus when the price delta gets you more towing, KDSS, xtra turbo and xtra 2 cyl's
how does it stack up against the new taco? and is the new runner cheaper or more? |

wtf is with Toyotas 7%+ financing?
Like they think the Toyota brand is enough alone to justify these rates? Paying 75k at 7% for fucking plastic interior peices based on 20 year old models sounds like a Ferrari type level of insanity lol.

I don't recall Toyota's interest rates being competitive for anything that sold well, especially for a new model.
