Good luck getting it. There's a chip shortage that is having a major effect on new car manufacturing. New car dealers are having to buy used cars to fill their lots. Rental car companies are having to do the same. It's causing used car prices to spike.

The chip shortage is impacting every industry that uses electronics. There's a diode shortage, voltage regulator shortage, etc.

If your supplier doesn't have DPAS it's screwed.

My Lexus guy offered me 25k for a 2016 rx last week. Zero down, 15k off a new one if I can wait a month. I paid 45 for it new. I had no words. But I can't just sell the car to them, either. That only nets me 20. fricking strange times, baws
