2018 XSE two tone options
I really like the two tone look that you can get on the new XSE. What I don't want though is having to add the panoramic roof, audio upgrade, and driver assist package for an extra $5000. I've been trying to find out if there is a way to get that paint job without all the add-ons. Toyota.com told me to check with local dealers. Most dealers say you can only get what is allowed when you do a "build and price" on Toyota.com, which only allows the look with all the add-ons. I finally found a dealer that said it is possible to get a 4 cylinder XSE, with the two tone paint, but without the all the extras. He even sent me a spec sheet and said the particular car was "being built" at the moment. He didn't know anything beyond that. Has anyone else come across a car with this type of option?

It appears vehicle packages/options are conceived per the demands of the 12 US Toyota regions. This explains the notice that not all packages/options may be available in "your" region.
"Special order" appears to be a dealer searching all regions for a for a vehicle that happened to be built to their customers order. Then getting the vehicle to their dealership.
If you do try to special order. The dealers success at finding a vehicle may take a lot of time or they may be unsuccessful. If you place a deposit make sure it is refundable and has some kind of finite time period to find the vehicle.

I just bought a Blue Streak / Midnight XSE V6 and indeed there was an exact Blue Streak / Midnight XSE 4 cylinder model on the lot but without the sunroof like you describe so they are out there. I just bought last week so I'm sure its still there if you're close to the SF Bay Area

Thanks. I had the Blue Streak/Black Metallic shipped to Phoenix from California. All I had to pay for was the $500 for the two-tone paint, instead of all the add ons you have to do for the normal cars that come to Arizona.
