Thanks Pvong! She's certainly been an eye catcher. I drove an SC 430 as part of a driving/security gig I had done awhile ago. The acceleration and shifting of the car so impressed me I broke my longstanding promise not to purchase another exotic vehicle and take my F150 to the grave with me. I couldn't stop talking about this car, even tho part of the client's entourage included a Shelby and a Mercedes AMG. My lady encouraged the extravagance, and I picked out this limited edition for that interior/exterior combination, flew up to SF from SD, California, and picked her up from Lexus.

Sorry y'all. I have to part with her soon and can't resist showing her off, while I can. These cars are truly exceptional. I'm very happy to have had the chance to own and drive one!

LOL! No Bacardi, finances, but living in SoCal does afford more opportunity to keep a car clean and sharp looking. And no, I don't keep a swifter in the door pocket to use on the interior when I'm just sitting in there admiring it all....I don't. Really....

Oh gosh. Sorry, my bad. I don't think so, I had just completed a detail on her when I took this shot.
