Hey JD! Looking good in black I got the 350F sport too RWD in Ultra white red interior. This was back in Dec'16. Done ~2,500 miles on it so far. Its mostly a weekend and long trip car so far. Flawless. Built like a vault. The '17 front end is really starting to grow on me. I saw one coming at me the other day and just said wow. Keeping it stock everything.

^^ I agree, I was on the fence initially but the more I saw it, the more it grew on me. Ironically, I was sooooooooo upset by the new rear tail lights and was looking to buy pre-mmc as my first mod, but now, I think these are my best feature of the my new Lexus - They look so much better in person and everyone who saw my new model all comment on how great the new tail looks.....Tail lights that is

it took a while for me to really like the '17, but trust me if you make the upgrade i don't think you'll regret it
