That is the search for the F. The transporter is set to make a pick this Friday and the car should be delivered on next Tuesday!

Unfortunately no. Ever since seeing a USB in person I've wanted no other F. And that's exactly what's coming. Ideally I wouldve liked the white interior, but it wasn't a requirement and with all the stories about the leather showing wear and tear, I figured black would be just as nice.

CONGRATS!!!! That USB color is really beautiful in person, and it definitely stands out! What year did you end up finding?

Thanks. It's an 08 with 11k miles. Just need to pick up an extended warranty just in case and I am set with a daily driver for the next 5 or so years.

Big congrats to you, Ascari. The search has been long and hard, but now it's time to have some FUN! It appears you picked up a real gem. Keep us posted on your initial impressions.

OT but did I read somewhere you might sell your Supra?

Thanks again guys. So long as the car is in the condition that I expect it, I know I am really going to enjoy it. And yes you are correct. I am selling my 94 single turbo that I've had since 2004 and also my 91 MR2 that I've had since 1998.

Congrats and do post pics of your ride when you get it! It was nice that you were able to find one with such low mileage.
