I actually took interest to where this island was . Looks really nice might have to take a vac there one day
Currently there is only one. The white one here is owned by Art [1SexyLexus]. Next week a Black RC-F (was originally reserved for me) arrives and is already sold. My special ordered Infrared RC-F will be arriving end of January. A silver RC-F with full carbon (hood, roof and spoiler) arrives in February is ordered by Albert [GSGuam]. So for a island 25 miles long and 5 miles wide with population of about 180K we have quite a few RC-F density for a small island.

When did you place your order and how do you know it's arriving end of January?

Congratulations! I bet you can't wait!

^ According to our dealer, we will be allocated 1 unit per month if requested, so atleast a month in advance they make the request for the specific model/ color combo to Lexus Japan and if its available it will arrive the next month or be placed in the following months build order.

I ordered a RCF with the Carbon Top and was told the Dealer will not find out when
they will be built until January here in the U.S. also mentioned by the dealer that
probably March until Lexus starts building the CF top. I am 5th in line
and dealer is only allocated one per month.

Does this sound right?

Has anyone confirmed that the TVD *without* carbon will be a limited run?

I have the same order for a carbon with TVD. I was told March / April delivery by a Lexus corporate rep and the local sales executive. I hope to hear more this week.

Has anyone seen a non carbon TVD car that has the sunroof option? None of the cars that I have seen at or on their way to a dealer have both TVD and sunroof.

The one at my local deal has no sun roof, but it has active cruise control, this one I saw at the dealer is $74575

I love my Ultra White RCF! Although I would push to change the name to Ultra Blinding White because when the car is clean, its blinding to look at... just saying lol
