I ordered a Lexus and all I got was this iPod nano
What happens when you order a Lexus and they are back ordered? Macenstein reports that not only do you get a loaner car (to get to and fro) but Lexus might also send you an iPod nano and Aux cable (since Lexus currently doesn't offer an integrated iPod system) for your patience.
Pretty sweet. So, if you want a free iPod all you have to do is buy a $40,000 car and hope it is back ordered. It is a plan that cannot fail.

Last I checked, Lexus doesn't make an IS300, just IS250 or IS350.

My roommate bought an IS250 a couple months ago. Lexus had to replace the floor mats for a safety recall, and as an apology they sent him a free iPod nano.

I just bought a Lexus SC 430, and I have to plug my own Ipod into the cigarette lighter. One would think, that for what a SC 430 costs, they would at least include an Ipod . ( Well..it did come with leather luggage )
