Default Pulled the Trigger Tonight... got the F

Well I couldn't wait more and tonight it happened. I just came home with a new 2016 RC-F Ultra White / Circuit Red. I'm turning in my IS350 F-Sport tomorrow, I'm going to miss it and it's going to be the first time in 9 years that we don't have an IS in the family anymore I wish I could keep it... Anyways, this thing is awesome! I love the growl of the exhaust. I'm happy with it

Here's some crappy pictures for now

Nice drone shots! Be careful not to crash on the new paint

What dealer did you lease or bought it from?

Congrats.

I like the orange calipers. Are they originally with the car or you had them done?

They came like that with the car. I guess it's part of a package or an option. They had 4 RCs to choose from. A red one with the carbon package which I didn't even consider (I wanted sunroof) and then a black one, a blue one and this white one, all three with red interior and the orange calipers.... the one with the carbon package was the only one without the orange calipers but I guess it's because the color, it wouldn't look good I don't think. Also, only the blue and the white had the triple LED headlights, not even the one with the carbon package had them... which is one thing I absolutely wanted, those lights are so nice

I almost went for the Blue with red interior but it just looks so nice with the white and the orange calipers and you can appreciate details a lot better on the white. Plus I want to do a couple of black accents, like the roof, and I think it will look amazing

All 2016 Rcf and GSF comes with orange calipers. Think that's the only change from 2015

What types of leasing deals they are currently offering for 2016? Did they have any leftover 15' on the lot?

Not all of them come with the orange calipers, the Infrared one they have there doesn't have the orange calipers. They have some good deals on the 16's, they told me some of the better deals they've had in a while, specially because the 17's are probably coming soon now. Nothing left over from 15'
