That's the 1st thing I noticed on the 14' RX350 F-Sport I purchased...more room than my 09'RX. NICE COLOR CHOICE BTW

Yeah, I love the color. I have a 2013 F sport in Claret Mica. i am in Colorado, and I had to convince the sales guy that the F sport DOES come in colors other than grey, white and black. I couldn't believe he didn't know. Turns out that Colorado isn't on the schedule to ever recieve any blue or red ones. I managed to get him to trade with a dealer in New Mexico for mine, and I am SO glad he did. Though I do like the black one I saw on the lot.

Do you have to have a front license plate? I hate that Colorado makes you have one. I hate it even worse that when I took off the license plate to maybe see if there was somewhere else I could put it (like hidden in the bottom grill, off to the side), the bastards had drilled the screws of the license plate bracket right into the fender. My old infiniti had a little pop-out plastic piece in the fender for you to screw in a metal license plate holder, so you wouldn't have to ruin the fender in the event that you lived somewhere that didn't require one in the front.

Congrats. Claret Mica looks really sharp in bright sunlight with its brown, purple, and red velvet tones all visible depending on angle and lighting.

I have yet to see a Deep Sea Blue Mica or Claret Mica in my neck of the woods on the road . The rare F-Sport sightings have been limited to white, black, silver, and gray.

Default Claret Mica

We just got a Claret Mica RX350. It is beautiful - especially clean. Asked my wife (it is her main driver) not to drive it, but got blown off.
Oh Well.

No front plate in Michigan...thankfully. I like the clean look.

Hmmm. Our salesman told us the Claret Mica was unique to the 450h!
Guess I'll have to let him know.
