Default Seen other F's?

How often do you even see other F's (besides at car meets?)

What are the chances that you see other F... right in front of you at a car wash... with the same color?!?! The look on the car wash guys were priceless. I'm playing the mega million this week! I've only seen another F once on the road during the 8 months of having one.

I'm running 20%, he's at 35% and not on CL... yet. and refrain from making fun of the front F emblem, it's off now.

I voted "At least once a month".

So even though an older F can be had for $50k, it still feels like $150k driving around town!

...it's closer to once every 2 month so my answere lies between option #2 and #3.

well put! it does feel like its worth more than what we paid for. surely that is the product of lexus' engineering and r&d combining ingenuity with class and precision.

Only one other in my town.
I like the near exclusivity (and ogling eyes).

I was getting it washed today and talking to a Carrera S owner and he was surprised my IS had so much output...

I see F's at least once every 2 weeks around here. They go largely unnoticed by most.

looks like cali, and a part of FL and houston sees F often... maybe it's an east coast thing not to see it too often? i see M3's everyday, but anything of the same class (C63, RS4, F) is completely rare... actually i've only seen 2 C63's, 2 F's, and 1 RS4, and a few S4's

Same here, there seems to be a lot of those "F-ers" around S. Fl
