Hi Everyone,
just want to introduce myself, very new to Lexus, my wife and I have been driving BMW’s for the past 2 decades and we are getting our first Lexus GX550 Luxury Plus White/Black.
We had ordered a 2026 X7 M60 , but we changed our mind after a very random visit to a local Lexus dealer prior to lunch. My wife fell in love with the GX550. This was literally just 1 week ago, what I didn’t know was the absolute poop show in trying to locate a gx550. I had no idea it was so popular and how incredibly challenging it was to get one without having to wait 2-3 months. I spent 3 days straight, hitting dealers on Long Island and in nyc. I also called about 25 dealers across the east coast and everyone was telling me the same. I was striking out and my phone was blowing up with sales people telling me to just put a deposit for a build allocation. I couldn’t bear to disappoint my wife, so I visited 1 last dealer on Long Island and the salesperson said a person backed out of a gx550 white/Black Luxury w/ bench. Now it wasn’t what my wife wanted originally, Incognito and saddle, but I convinced her to take the white and I would spend extra on getting it customized in lieu of waiting another 3 months. She agreed and I just got an email today, telling me the gx will arrive at the dealership this coming Monday!!!
We are super excited and I look forward to posting pictures and learning from you all. You have a great community and I’m honored to be a part of it. Have a great day everyone!
