Like the gray a lot. Looks a little darker than my Atomic Silver. Good Luck with the new wheels...

Beauty. Let's see the interior, especially the new console area.

Beautiful color. I really like those noise reduction wheels. Is that polished aluminum? If I didn’t get an F Sport, I would get an Ultra Luxury 350.

No ML Audio. It has he 10-speaker system and it still sounds pretty good if you ask me.

Very nice, but I wish they would have put the cup holders beneath a cover, like in the LS or other premium cars. Personal preference I guess but I’ve never liked the open holders.

Gorgeous! Does it have a CD player? I have seen new lux models claiming to have a CD player, but I've also heard it's been eliminated in '23.

It doesn't. Or at least if it does they moved it. Cause the CD player (at least in my 2019 UL with ML) is beneath the seat heating/cooling controls.

Why? My 2021 has the CD player and I’ve never used it in two years I’ve owned my car. The Bluetooth from my digital device supersedes the CD player and the need to lug around CD’s and constantly change them. That’s progress!
Maybe you’ll tell me the sound is superior from CD player. Could be. I’m not much of an audiophile and half the time I’m driving, I’m listening to radio news or talk shows——sometimes even on AM!
