Looks really good in that color. Why does everybody in Arizona reach the gas hose around the car???

Pick the shortest gas line, and it is often the line with the pump on the wrong side if your car

Actually it's because Costco makes the hoses long enough to reach the other side of the car. This means vehicles can pick any line and makes all the lines flow more efficiently. That's what they said in the Costco documentary on youtube :P

I didn't mean the shortest hose, but the shortest line. When everyone can pick any line, it moves more efficiently.

Saw a white RC-F at Country Hills Toyota Calgary, AB in white with matte black wrap on the spoiler and roof. The wheels were the 20 spoke split wheels.

Had a license plate on it so it looked like a customer car. Wonder if the owner of that RC-F is on this board?

I saw a black/black one on 17th ave last weekend, I think it's the one that's been sitting at Lexus of Calgary.


Here's the blue one from the International Auto Show last weekend.


Mine is on the boat, should be another one bombing around Calgary in a few weeks

Congrats. Please do post some pictures.

Stopped by Lexus of Calgary today to inquire about the certified pre-owned program warranty details (since I am planning on getting a used '11 - '12 IS-F sometime in the near future).

I saw 3 total RC-Fs at lexus of Calgary. This black one is now just outside the front entrance sitting on the "front steps" and two in the dealership - a silver one in the dealership (with a "sold" sign on it) and a white carbon package with the other "buzz saw" premium wheels.

Funny, all of the one's with "buzz saw" wheels I have seen in Calgary, have the carbon package. The standard RC-F here have the 20 split spoke. Never seen the standard wheels (my favorite style).

Are people just leasing these cars or are they financing because I noticed how quality gas wasn't pumped.
I'm just curious as I'm very close to trading in my 350F having lurking the RFC forums so often.

Gasoline is pretty homogenous and "branded" stations often buy gas from other suppliers as needed. Costco is not unlike any other major name brand gas and I would feel pretty confident filling up at Costco. source: Consulting work at every supermajor in Houston

Also, Costco is one of my favorite stores.

Pretty sure I spotted a Nebula Gray RC-F in the Waco/Hewitt area on Sun Valley Blvd headed towards Hewitt Dr around 1pm Sunday. I was in the UltraSonic Blue IS-F headed towards I-35, we were on our way to a bday party or I would have turned around and gave chase, haha.

I'm trying to find some local F owners on the board!!

I just saw the same nebula gray RC-F I saw last weekend in Waco on highway 84. I'm guessing they aren't on the board
