Default Looking at RC 350 F sport awd or rwd

Wondering what folks are getting for prices in January? Anyone test drive an awd then go with rwd; the rwd seem be more available?

I often yearn for RWD but I'm in a cold region and giggle with delight when I'm tearing it up on snow, ice and rain days in the AWD.

I have an AWD...but drove both. The RWD feels more fun, but I like you live in the cold and there was really no choice in my decision.

The car drive trains available are predominantly determined by the weather in the region

NELOC will find far more AWD than RWD

Southwest will find far more RWD than AWD

Impossible to find? No

But it does get a little trickier finding an AWD with all the features I want here in Southern California

Did they change the lights on 2017? Was the dealer easy to deal with and did you price check Longo?

The lights are the same but you can get the LED type thats on the RCF, I have not seen any in CA on the RC350 but did see some in Canada when I was looking for the AWD. I did get a quote from Longo that was close to the same but just liked the way Motorcity Bakersfield Handled everything. Joey Buoni in the internet department helped me, super easy did most the deal through text and there was no funny business when I actually went in to finalize the deal

Hi All - I have an RC350 AWD coming in around April looking forward to it. Having it customized with pretty much everything and received a pretty good deal from a dealership in NJ.
By the way, if you have the ML audio system, how do you like it? I understand it is superb.

The ML audio system is amazing their is no reason for an aftermarket stereo. It bumps
