Congrats! Would love to see photos of it and see what options you have on it. Black/Black is a great combination. I'm sure it's sharp.

Went to westminster lexus today to check out f-sport that just arrived today. To be honest, the look of it doesn't seem to worth 52k, but not sure if the drive will change my mind. The car is pending inspection so no test drive allow today...

While my opinion on the lower grille goes back and forth, I have to say that (in my opinion) the front license plate bracket totally messes up the lines of that whole area. The dealer advertising just adds insult to injury.

Yes, sadly the designers don't seem to ever do any designing WITH the license plate in place as is mandatory in many states. I thought of that with all the gorgeous pictures Lexus has put out on the LS460 F-Sport.....Great looking vehicle from all sides, but maybe not quite as much when plates are attached front and rear which are the two sides most see on the highway!!
