Default Finally Got It

Yesterday I was lucky enough to bring home a new Silver Lining Metallic F-Sport.

I went to the dealer on December 13th just to see the car in person, all they had was a hybrid. I said my number one color choice was Silver with Black Interior and I definitely wanted the F-Sport. They said I was in luck and one was destined for that dealership by the end of the year, so I put down $500 and waited. The vehicle arrived on December 26th and I took delivery on December 29th.

I have only had the car for one day, but the fit and finish is second to none. I previously owned three Acura's, the Lexus quality is light years ahead...seriously....light years.

Overall, I love the car and think it looks amazing, no negatives yet. Those triple-beam LED's make night driving seem like daytime.

I stumbled upon the NX forum around June/July when I was debating on purchasing an RX. Thank you to everyone on here for all the info and discussions, extra credit goes to Corrado. If it wasn't for this forum I would still be driving my MDX. To bad the people on here don't get commission.

Thanks Again,
-Dennis

The NX is so ugly! Lol.
Although, I did inititally think that about the 3IS, especially the F-Sport version... Foot in mouth now though.
Congrats! And Enjoy.

Is the black interior with the F sport scarce for the NX? I recall last year's 3IS typically had the Roja Red for most of the F sports.

Not sure, I got lucky that this one had what I want (silver/black). I think the F-Sport edition is the most scarce. I purchased what seemed to be the only F-Sport the dealer got in the whole month of December. They get numerous loaded 300h's and base 200t's.

Loaded 300h's and base 200t's are exactly what my dealer has as well. Weird mix. I had to sit in the 300h to fiddle with the features after going out with the 200t.

It's way too early to tell. The only two interior's available for the F Sport is Black & Rioja Red w/Black....F Sport exclusive is the Metallic Sport trim. Fire Agate Pearl & Meteor Blue Mica Exterior is not available in the F Sport. The only F Sport exclusive Exterior color is Ultrasonic Blue Mica which comes only in Black or Rioja Red w/black......according to the NX brochure.
