Congrats, she's a beauty.

Regarding the pics, sometimes I need to edit pics in Windows or Photoshop and spin them around once or twice until they show rightside up. No idea why.

I'm not a fan of chrome wheels either, and if you decide they're not for you, then I'm sure you can find a set of 19" forged silver or the machined / gray for sale eventually. Then sell off the blings.

Congrats!

I kind of like the wheels. Are they a smoked chrome kind of color or is that just a trick of the photos?

Why? Easy, peasy, you are head over heels in love with the car

Congrats on the new car, looks awesome. I like the chrome wheels because it matches the trim on the door panels and windows. I am considering getting chrome plated wheels for my car!

BTW, is that another Lexus in your garage?

Congrats to you and your family on the new addition (to the garage), salesguy! You don't see too many white LSes and it looks great in the photos. Happy motoring!

A shame too because I would rather have white or the red below (especially for 2013+). I don't understand why white would be so unpopular. According to Wikipedia, white was the most popular car color in the world in 2012...I guess just not on luxury flagships?

Thanks folks, appreciate the warm welcome here. Good group, glad to be here.

They are fully chrome - no smoke or gunmetal. Chrome baby, love it or not. It does match the trim and door handles well, so there is that.

Yes, another lexus. My wife drives an IS250 we got from Carmax a few years ago. She loves it - nothing special about it. She also enjoyed her RX330 some years ago.

The future holds a new RX350 for her, maybe during the lease event in december....maybe.

As far as usernames, picking one is hard, which is why I always use the same one. I used to be in enterprise IT sales - retired from that now. Now we own & manage commerical real estate. Always helps to be a good negotiator. If you want a good book on it check out, "never split the difference" by chris voss.

The LS460 makes a great kid hauler...as does the RX350. My 3yr old loves the BIG Lexus.

btw Salesguy, I'm also in Enterprise IT Sales leadership...

Congrats again on your car, it's awesome. I'm sure you know how to pull the service history on https://secure.drivers.lexus.com/lexusdrivers/

I recently went to rockauto.com and bought new air and cabin filters for all three of my cars at a fraction of the dealer price. Mahle makes good stuff.

Enterprise IT sales must be a popular career path for LS owners...I'm in healthcare enterprise IT sales as well.
Salesguy, congrats on an awesome car. Post pics when you change out the wheels. A while back I posted a thread that got 0 replies to see if anyone with a '13 and beyond had installed the 19" 5 star rims from the prior generation LS. I think those would look sweet on the new body style. I don't have photoshop but would love if someone else could photoshop the '10-'12 rims onto a new bodystyle. Thanks for posting the specifics of what you paid for the car- glad to see the pricing is coming down a little. I will strike in about 12 months when I can snag one for $35k or so. Enjoy it in good health. Cheers,

Your patience has paid off! Love the car and love the crome wheels. It works with that color combo. What color is the interior? All black or do you have some red mixed in?

Congrats on the new car and I wish you good luck with it.

Most importantly it gets your daughter's two up!
