Default On my way to pick up my F-Sport :)

Hello All,

I am currently on Amtrak heading from Oceanside CA to Santa Ana to pick up a 2013 GS350 F-Sport. Pretty excited. This will be my first sedan in over 6 years. For the past 5 years I've been living in Colorado. My vehicles in CO have mostly been highly modified trucks or SUV's.

I test drove a number of vehicles before ending up at the GS:
-2012 Mercedes C250, E350
-2012 (new Model) BMW 328i
-2012 Volvo S60 R-Design
-2012 Infiniti M37 & G37
-2012 Audu A3, A4,S4,A6

Weather kind of sucks today but i will post up some pictures later today.

Congratulations on purchasing the 2013 GS F Sport. It's an awesome car. Post pictures when you get a chance. I was at Longo Lexus in El Monte, CA yesterday and saw a black LFA...

Lease:
12k miles
36 months
$4,100 OTD
$620 per month (I think)

I don't support putting money down on a lease but I needed to get the payment down so the Boss wouldn't yell at me.

By "boss" do you mean your wife?

The car looks great. I know you're gonna love it.

@chrislee. how many star fire pearl F Sports with black interior have you seen in CA? I seem to be the only one in the 5 boroughs with this car. the only other one i've seen on the street was a nebula grey F Sport. don't forget to tint your windows.

That is correct!

That was me. I live in oceanside and was heading to Carlsbad to show it off

We are in a temp place until we find a house to buy down here. I just spent a few hours moving boxes in the garage to get it fit. It's tight but does the job



I feel guilty exposing my cars to substandard shelters. This is what I had back in CO

Great choice of color for your new car....congrats !

If I were you, I would move everything in the garage outside in the front yard, and just keep the space for the car only. The space where you parked your car is too tight, someone could accidently ding the car.
