This is probably one of the lamest “limited editions”

Lexus needs to start discounting more aggressively to get volumes instead of these tricks. They had a very good year end discount in 2018 December when we bought the ES300 for 60L OTR, it was a CBU and RTO tax was 12L on it in MH which was the discount part. Nearly 20% off! Thereafter they have been high headed with zero discounts in typical toyota style.
If Lexus does a similar scheme now, it will be a cheaper scheme since it’s now a CKD with a lower taxation. Getting a ES300 for 65L on road Mumbai would be a sweet spot to move volumes.

This reminds me of those Maruti Suzuki and Hero Honda limited edition models.

Someone in Lexus has started a side business in leather products?
