Who Has Actually Purchased a Type-S
This has been bouncing around a bit. There are a limited number of cars in Canada. Don't know what the deal here in the US is but locally there are 3 cars among 3 stores. Be nice to know how many are actually bought as I don't think that the sales of the Type-S will be listed separately from the TLX.
Any interest?

Extremely limited in Canada, but here's one for sale near Vancouver, BC:
https://vancouver.craigslist.org/rds...351063600.html
White/Red interior, and does not appear to have those useless ripoff dealer "packages" added in

Congrats on your purchase. May be just the pic but the 3rd gen looks quite a bit smaller than the type S. Almost mistook your 3rd gen for a regular TL since it didn't have the waffle rims but then saw the tailpipes, clear side marker lights, type S tailight lenses (not the solid red), sideskirts and then figured you may have the A-Spec rims on it. 3rd gen they had a lot of subtle differences on the type S.

Dealer told me today there’s only 300 nationwide of the 2021 outside of demo models. My vin is 50 after GhostTL09

I pick up mine this Friday. VIN ending in 104. This VIN thing is a great idea. We should start a VIN log and see how many owners we can find. Kinda like our own VinWiki!

Maybe? The car had 21km on it and all of the plastic wrap around the steering wheel, seats, etc. Even had foam pads on the outside. They were telling me they had no demo's and weren't really letting people take them for test drives either.

It's closer to the 5 series BMW than the 3. And weighs as much!

According to my dealer you can’t order the Y spokes with the car and they’re $1,599 to have the all season tires swapped to the Y spokes and then you can keep the factory wheels. See pic below.

I ordered mine months ago with the blue/red combo and performance tires. Still no ETA but the order is in according to my dealership.
I decided to test drive their demo yesterday. So much fun!
My 2019 ASPEC SH-AWD only had 12,600 miles on it currently so I’m trading that in instead of ending my lease early. There is a lot of positive equity on it so a buyout/trade is the best solution.
