Default Parted with the BMW...


So we decided to part with with the wifes BMW, and she decided she wanted a hybrid.
Off to Lexus we went she test drove a regular one, but all the displays showed the Blue F-Sport,
thats what sold it. So the hunt began for a Blue F-Sport we found 2 incoming to S. FL. Negotiations started and here we are.
Vehicle: 2015 CT200H F-Sport
Package(s):

BY - F-Sport Premium Pkg
FJ - F-Sport w/ NuLuxe Interior
JK - F-Sport Foglamps
NV - Navigation w/ Backup Camera
PA - Park Assist

Exterior: Ultraonic Blue (8U1) w/ Obsidian Black (212) roof

Interior: Nuluxe Black interior



just wish there was a fog mod like the is to have them on with the running lights

Congratulations to you and your wife on picking up a 2015 CT. Love the USB. Happy driving...I also noticed you painted the bottom part of the grill black and it looks good!

One of the guys at my dealer was telling me he heard they discountinued the USB color for 2015. Good to see that's not true. Although that would have made my 2014 super rare. =P

It's also nice to see that some dealers are ordering F Sports in blue still!

Great color , congrats!

There are tons of CTs in my area but I've yet to see a USB in the wild. Sort of like the yellow ones they had for a short time

Great choice in color! What model BMW did she come from? I sold my F10 aka 5 series and got a CT200h Fsport.

Thanks, one of the first things i wanted to do was to get rid of that silver in the front.. had seen someone else do it and it looked so much nicer. i kept the upper grill chrome since it matched with thead headlamps.

had saw your post on it, but lexus advertisements had the USB on almost every one of them. had to search hard and fly out to pick this one up.

left the 07 e90 328i sport. only had 65k on it but was a PITA. so i told her its time to look at something new. with me working for lexus, i told her ill find out where and how to get it. luckily we didnt have to special order one and wait the 90-120 days... the two i found were preorders for inventory.


so far were loving it. this is for her but its making me want one. i may go for the nx300h f-sport...

MrJohn, do you mind uploading another picture of the front from a distance?

I want to get a better look at the front grill surrounding blacked out


Thanks!
