Talking I got a new car but I'm not leaving!

I traded my GS in for an RC the other day. I've always wanted to have a coupe and I found one RC with the color combo and options that I like, with a great deal. But I'm staying in the 4GS forum.

It's got the radar cruise control and a trunk lid that opens by itself, even my GS didn't have that. It drives great, feels really solid and comfy. I did a 4 hr drive and didn't feel tired. Back seat is also comfy, just a bit of a hassle going in and out. But man I miss that new car smell!!!

Yeah, other forums seem dry. Especially with u here and maybe that's why Steve is still hanging around here too!

Thanks man! Yea it's becoming harder to find the color combo with the options that I want now, since Lexus is cutting back on the production. They're pushing out more of the 200t now and tons of IS, CT, and ES. GS350 and RC350 are becoming rare.

Hey does anyone know if my RC has a leather seat or nuluxe? It feels like leather, just like my GS was.

I'm 99% certain the RC in F Sport trim is NuLuxe. I loved that stuff on my IS.

Edit: Just confirmed on the Lexus product information sheet that it's like the IS, where the base and F Sport get NuLuxe and only the Luxury Package gets leather.

Yea, it's really nice and doesn't get creased easily. Wow they really improved this stuff a lot. The nuluxe in my CT feels like rubber gloves.
