Only 24k?...nice! I'm originally from Chicago so hope you enjoy a top-down summer!
It's hot and rainy here in South Florida so back to coupe-mode for me

I love that interior color combination. I have all-black on the inside, and love the neutral color contrast of the greys inside that car

Thanks! I love the look of black on black but was worried it would get too hot. The “ventilated” seats don’t do a whole lot as it is.

Cool My new 2013 F-Sport IS 250C !!!

I’ve owned three Lexus RXs (2001, 2013, & now have a 2016), but have always wanted a hardtop convertible. A pilot friend of mine owned one & I told him a year or two ago that I wanted first dibs if he ever sold it. Well it happened a few months ago! So I now own a 2013 gorgeous, like new, F-Sport white convertible with red leather interior. Only 14,000 miles! And he transferred his Platinum Lexus warranty to me too, so it’s fully warranted for another 15 months.

I would love to hear from y’all about what kind of wind deflectors are best. I don’t know much about my car yet, but it’s in the garage & I’m thrilled to own it. It’s hot looking with the red interior, black trim, Navi & all the bells and whistles. I love the way this car handles! Tons of pickup despite the small engine. I paid him $27,000, so I didn’t exactly get a kinfolk deal. I offered him $25K but the Lexus dealership had told him it was a rare car & May bring $30,000. So there went my negotiating power...

Pictures will follow soon....

Sounds like a nice color combination--please do post pics.

I have the OEM deflector. It's expensive but folds and stores nicely. I usually leave it flat as it bounces back and forth when zooming along the expressway at 70 MPH.

I popped for the OEM deflector as well but got a good used one on fleebay. My car had never had one installed so had to get the hardware kit from my local dealer. I think I paid $250 for the wind screen and $70 for the kit. Still way better than $450 new from the dealer without the kit.

Hello All! Been a lurker here for info, we just bought a 2012 IS 350C white and will be scheduling an appointment with the dealer for the recall (airbag and something with injector) today. I was only looking around and test driving cars, but finding this gem where it was always serviced at a Lexus dealer, passed the checklist for buying used cars and drove really well made me jump on it,
