that's the first color i asked for when i bought my f-sport. f-sport doesn't come in that color. my dealer said we'll never see this color here in N.Y. unless it's a special order.

Not my thing, but really nice color. Would go nicely with gray interior and linear espresso wood.

really nice, I think it would look awesome with the flaxen interior. I wonder if the F grill would fit in place of the standard grill in the spindle? That and a spoiler and one would have a Lux with F sport looks. In the AWD I don't think there is much difference, both have S +, AVS. the brakes are the same etc.

Good question. As far as I know from everything I read online and reading the Lexus brochure (as well as discussions with my dealer when special ordering my F-Sport) the Luxury package cannot be ordered on the F-Sport.

uuuuummmmmm,,, MBM or DSM? i would go with the deep sea, but the meteor is nice also. you have to wrap them both in saran wrap to keep the scratches and swirls off. had the 2011 ES in deep sea, drove me crazy.

The Meteor is a lot like the Aviator Blue on the A6. IN AWD i don't think there is any difference in the setup between the Lux and F. Kinda like the Blue, if the F grill inserts could be put on and a spoiler added.
Also, the 18" tires are of better quality and longer lasting tread than the 19" EL 400 on the F AWD.
ON the F, Would need to replace tires every 10 months or so.

It reminds me of a G or M sedan... Not sure why. I prefer the Deep Sea as well though.

I don't think that is one of the packages. Did I say in another thread that my F Sport came with rear audio? That's not something I'm interested in at all. Rarely have riders in the back seat.

Salesman told me in Feb, they're not making the meteor blue/flaxen just yet so ordered the light grey.
