I've put a deposit down on a AWD GS 300 ~2 months ago and my car has come in twice. The first time with the wrong external color (won't you consider changing your preference?) and the second time wrong internal color (won't you consider changing your preference?). While I want to be flexible, to put down >50K on a car and get your second choice for color seems stupid. Yet the response is, "If you aren't flexible, it will likely be another 2-3 months for your car". Should I be looking at another dealership?

I think you should consider looking at another dealership. I take it these two cars were not ordered from the factory but just came in as part of their regular allotment, or were traded to get close to what you want.
 
I think you need to make it clear to this dealer, if you stick with them, that you want the car you specify (including ext & int color) ordered from the factory, period, and you won't accept anything less.
 
Yes, if you're spending $50,000 on a car, you should should be able to choose the exact options and colors you want.
 
I would talk to another dealer and see if they're willing to get exactly what you want, no questions asked.

I was asking to see if someone knows where I can get 2006-GS430 invoice....repeat not where I can get the GS430 for invoice.

Hi, Jake,
 
I did suggest where you could find the invoice price of the car: Edmunds and Kelly Blue Book (kbb.com), among many other places. Hope you were able to locate it. By the way, others were also confused by your ambiguous question.

Is it true that the run-flat tires on the GS430 only last about 15,000 miles and cost just under $400 each to replace?

There's an advisory sticker on the GS430 that says these 18" (is that right?) tires may last only 15,000 miles or so. The sticker on the GS300 says those (17"?) may last 20,000 or less. Don't know what replacement costs are. Presumably, however, you could replace all the run-flats with conventional tires after the original set wears out at less cost, no?
