Congrats....I just signed my lease for my 2015 Ultra White/Black AWD IS 350 F sport today too and picking up in about 1.5 weeks! Can't wait!

Are you required to have front plates where you live?

Make sure you post pics ASAP

Lexi90...Thanks buddy! Rest assured that as soon as I pick it up and get to detail it, I will post pics for sure. It appears that I will pick it up on Thursday morning and then get a chance to detail on Friday as it looks like we will have a nice warm day and will be a holiday so will not be working

I got mine in Feb...didn't get white as there were a ton in my work parking garage. I got the Nebula Grey but I made the dealer detail the car with a clay bar before I picked her up. Ended up putting Zaino with Opti-Seal a few weeks later. Zaino and Opti-seal make the Grey super reflective.

^^ I may try and get the dealer to do the same IF the paint feels a bit rough but otherwise, I'll do the detailing myself as I am super **** about people touching my car. I was on the fence between the Atomic Silver with red interior OR the White with the black interior. I love white cars in general so I went with the color I always fall for but it was close.

^^ You got the 350 F sport as well?

I got the 350 F sport with ML and blind spot assist. I got the red interior too. Good thing about the grey is that when its dirty, you can't even tell.
