FSport is pretty nice isn't it?!?
Hello! Nina in sunny Hollywood, CA. I just leased a CT this weekend.
1. CT premium
2. Nav
3. Nebula grey/black NuLuxe
4. Parking Assist, cargo mat, net, etc.
5. F-Sport
6. none!
7. Test drove a lot of things, narrowed my choice down to the CT, VW GTI and Subaru Impreza Sport Limited. VW just wasn't competitive price-wise and Subaru wasn't quite as nice as I wanted my new car to be. I replaced a 2000 VW Beetle so this is a big change!

Not mechanical, I was a software engineer, (retired now) so no mods planned.

That sucks. It does take some getting used to. I will need to lessons on how to drive and park whenever I hand it over to a valet or attendant of some type.

Hi, I wanted to introduce myself. I purchased the car April 12th and got some tint done immediately. Couldn't stand the fishbowl feeling.. haha anyway to answer the questions.
1. CT premium?
2. Nav
3. Color for exterior and interior: White with black NuLuxe interior
4. Options or Option Packages
5. F-Sport? Yup just had too.
6. Tint, Lower maybe a little bit, but more aesthetics to make it look clean.. although its pretty clean already. Not sure what else to do to it?
7. What other cars were you considering? What did this replace or add to? Basically all the hybrids available I was considering just because I drive a lot. But, this car was just so much more beautiful compared to everything else. Car I am replacing is a 2005 BMW 325Ci, was getting 22MPG and was getting pretty bad as I started to pay way too much a week to fill up gas. First tank and I was got 45.5MPG

Greetings,
First the requisites:
1. CT premium
2. Nav
3. Matador Mica Red/ Tan
4. Has all sorts of stuff
5. Not F sport
6. Maybe some mods, not sure yet.
7. I wanted a good commuter car, I drive 110 miles a day (NJ to Long Island)
I've had the car almost a month, I bought it used. The price was right and its fun to drive.
The only mods I'm looking at now is just update the nav.... But I'm open to advice and suggestions.

New Girl Here!

4. Everything, pretty much.
5. F-Sport? Yup
6. Planned modifications? install HIDs, lowering kit, new rims

Hello. Joined the club yesterday. Former GS400 owner. Then I drove an Escalade for a while, but my work commute is around 50 miles roundtrip daily, so I picked up a CT last night. 2011. Pretty sure it's the base model. I have some tanabe springs on order. Plan to do some tint and other light mods, and then wheels eventually.

Hey Guys,
1. CT base or premium: Not sure... How do I know?
2. Nav / no nav: Nav.
3. Color for exterior and interior: Pearl White Ext., Light Tan Interior.
4. Options or Option Packages: Not sure...
5. F-Sport?: Nope.
6. Planned modifications? HID, Coilovers, Wheels, Maybe exhaust.
7. Former SC300 owner here. Some of you may have seen the SC's Gone Wild video that my car was in before I sold it. The new owners of my old car... Sigh...
I sold the SC300 and got a '09 370z (~3 years), gas was killing me so I got a '09 Prius (~3 years), Prius got boring so I bought this CT.
Here's the CT. I love this thing. So clean.
