Congrats! I picked up a 2014 Fsport two weeks ago. Love it. On the way to work I keep it in Eco Mode. On the way home it is in Sport+.

The brakes take some getting used to. Mine don't squeal so I wonder if the previous owner had them fixed. According the records he always did everything at his Lexus dealership.

A lot of my friends can't believe it is a LS 460 because of the interior styling. I must admit it is not grandpas' LS on the inside.

My credit union offered a extended warranty for 7 more years and 75k more miles. I confirmed they cover all components of the air suspension before I bought it for 1400 bucks. It covers everything except for light light assemblies, speakers, and the normal parts that wear like pads and tires.

Congrats and I wish good luck with the cars to both Gregory and bigsherv!

Bigsherv, that sounds like an excellent deal on the extended warranty.

I'll have to check with my CU I bought the Lexus Warrenty for 4/48 for $4,100. The dealer financed car for 4.75% interest. My CU refi'd it for 2%

The warranty is actually pretty nuts. I didn't know it had the following areas covered. It is the Platinum Policy from National Auto Care. It has a $50 dollar deductible. You used to be able to pick no deductible or a higher deductible but the bank seemed to have streamlined their options. I do think NAC offers them.While the price varies by car, they allow a warranty to be purchased as long as you are under 72K miles.
  • Substitute transportation up to 40 dollars a day
  • Trip interruption
  • Roadside assistance
  • Mechanical first aid including tire service, battery, delivery of needed fluids, towing, locksmith
  • Key Fob coverage up to 300 dollars for lost, stolen, or damage.
  • Dent repair up to 300 dollars for life of vehicle
  • Windshield repair coverage up to 300, repair not replacement.
I have had them before and didn't run into any major issues except the mechanic has to verify each task prior to doing to to ensure they are paid. But that seems to be standard.
It has exclusions like it won' cover any light assembly, speakers, etc, but it will cover the car with rims as long as they don't exceed what Lexus would allow. If I attached a snow plow or added a lift kit it would be covered to as long as I let them know. Some things are comical to read.

My main thing was will it cover the air suspension? When they said yes (saving that email for life) I was okay with the risk of lights, speakers, etc and other things not covered that the Toyota/Lexus warranty covered.

Have you tried to submit a claim to them for anything yet? I just did a Google search for this company and they have some terrible reviews on denying coverage of basic things because the specific part is not listed individually in the policy, even when the overall system is listed as covered. Just wondering anyone else's experience with National Auto Care VSA. Sounds pretty cheap for the coverage which makes you wonder. TIA!

I have not on this vehicle. My factory warranty just ended. I have before and with a shop owners help I have never been denied. The shop I use now uses them all the time and told me to make sure the platinum one is the one I bought. Wish me luck.

I have never seen F-Sport with saddle interior. I thought they always come in Black. Can your post a few pictures?
