Picked up our new F-Sport
Was a very exciting day yesterday picking up our new Nebula Gray F-Sport. 
Very happy with the tight handling, braking composure, and interior refinement. Also noticed the drive is more quiet than our previous '07 RXh, but I'm sure the new Michelins have something to do with it. The ride is firmer, but not harsh and still very refined. 8-speed auto very nice too and no real lag that I noticed on take off. Not yet used to the remote touch to do routine choices like selection of preset radio stations for instance, but it's very slick, user friendly, and the haptic feedback makes for a very easy to use input device. Overall, kudos to Lexus for improving an already refined ride!

No, I don't play soccer!
Congrats!! Like that grill. I'll have to see if my dealer has one when I'm in for service in two weeks. I'd like to try it out and compare it to the sport package I have on the 450h. Have fun with it.

Looks beautiful! Please post more pictures. I saw a beautiful white one at my dealer a few weeks ago. Maybe the "December to Remember" will convince me to take the plunge.

Congrats on the new ride. I was at the dealer yesterday and they had that color combo. Nebula gray seems to look the best with the rims. Enjoy the ride and looking forward to your feedback.

I see corrado that you got it at Don Valley North....Enjoy your F-sport (ride is a bit firm for me)! Pity that Blind Spot Monitoring and Intuitive Park Assist cannot be bought on the F-Sport in Canada! I love the Blind Spot Monitoring that I have on my 13 Ultra Prem 1 that I bought at On The Park. The Nebula Grey is a beautiful colour.

Agreed, I wish the other bells and whistles were available as an Ultra Premium Package or similar on the F-Sport. I even wanted the dual DVD player for my kids but not avail so I bought a player that mounts behind the center arm rest. Yeah, ride is a bit on the firm side but softer than my CT which was my minimum requirement (and worked !)
