[2]"Delivery, processing and handling fee" is based on the value of the processing, handling and delivery services Lexus provides, as well as Lexus' overall pricing structure. Lexus may make a profit on the delivery, processing and handling fee.

Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake-system maintenance and tire and road conditions. [6]17-in performance tires are expected to experience greater tire wear than conventional tires. Tire life may be substantially less than 20,000 miles, depending upon driving conditions. [7]Cargo and load capacity limited by weight and distribution. Back to top
