Default I've Never Seen a GS 350/350F on the Street

I live in Eastern PA. I've had my GS 350 exactly one month and 875 miles. Before I picked it up I had never seen a 2013 GS 350 on the street. My interest was generated from pics on the Internet. After a month of driving one around, I still haven't seen one. Anywhere. BMWs, MBs, Infiniti M's everywhere. I see Jaguar XFs and even XJs close to my home. Heck, I've even seen the latest Hyundai Azera's (good looking car, by the way). I've seen Lexus IS, and Lexus LS, and Lexus ES. But I've yet to see another GS 350 or 350 Fsport --ANYWHERE, and that includes anywhere between Eastern PA and New York City! I've even seen Bentley's in Manhattan but no GS 350s.

How long has this generation been on the streets? Is anyone buying it? This is really strange. I would like to at least see one on the street other than mine. Am I the only person in Eastern PA that owns the 2013 GS 350?

I see some everyday in Central NJ but it's usually not the F-Sport model.

I work in Manhattan. I've never seen one. I'm talking 4th generation GS. Hasn't this model been out for a year? Where are they? They aren't on the streets that's for sure.

But every day I see Infiniti M's, even Jaguars, and that's tin semi-rural Pennsylvania. No GS 350s.

Where can I go to see one on the street?

I see them fairly regularly on the streets in S FL, but almost never on the interstate, which I drive about 250 miles a week, commuting. I notice them right away, and quite happy when I do, which tells me this is the car I want.

4th gen GS must be up in the Toronto area. I see 2 or 3 of them every day now. In fact I am now seeing at least 1 Teslas just about daily as well.

I live in Brooklyn, work in Astoria. There are 10 4GS parked where I live and I usually see a few on the way to / from work, not every day, but often. People who work in the city don't drive there, there is no where to park. When I used to work on Wall St. I always took a train to work, my GS was parked at home 24/7.

I've only seen one other GS Fsport in my area and it was near my dealer. Seen quite a few 4th gen GS but even they aren't as common as other models.

I'm seeing more and more here in s fla. People still ask me what kind of car I have though. I like the exclusivity.

Living in the 'burbs of Chicagoland.

Haven't seen an F-Sport.

Can count on one hand how many Luxury model GS350s I've seen.

Very rare bird...

This is all so strange. I wish I could actually see someone other than myself actually driving one. Heck, I'd settle for seeing one in a public parking lot.
