That's pretty normal for the Japanese manufacturers, especially on anything they build in Japan. It has always been the domestic manufacturers who were willing to build you a car exactly to your specifications.

That’s US specific thing.

I ordered a RAV4 PHEV (prime in US) last year and it was a factory order from Japan. Toyota Europe app even tells you when it’s built and then tracks the shipment to your local Toyota dealership.
