Default the Awakening....

My new Lexus finally made it from the ports of Long Beach to Tucson. I took delivery on Tuesday and the entire 90-day process from special order to delivery went like clockwork.

RC350 FSport
Ultrasonic Blue
Playa
Foglamps
BlindSpot
Park Assist
Moon Roof
Rear Spoiler
NAV/ML 835watts

Pics to come shortly.

* Driving. Fantastic. I'm a previous G35 6MT owner so the coupe/300'ish HP is familiar.
* Luxury. I think it's stunning. I'm sure there are the often mentioned "cost cutting" items but I'm very please.
* Performance. The 3 settings are definitely noticeable. ECO definitely for my in-town surface street driving. Once the break-in period is over I will push the performance side.
* Look. I laughed out loud at the dealership. They had folks watching it from the time the truck arrived until I took possession. The USB really glows in the bright Arizona sun and that front end is nasty aggressive.

More feedback to come along with photos. Planned mods;

* Lowering springs
* F sized wheels/tires

Congrats! Can't wait for the pics. I'm still in the break-in period as well and haven't used Sport/+ yet...patiently waiting.

Welcome and congrats bro! I too made a switch from Infiniti (G37S Coupe) to Lexus (ISF) a few years ago and never looked back. Lexus' Quality, Reliability, and Service is well worth the car payments. Congrats again and look forward to your build.
