Excellent! Happy you finally found one! The Riviera Red is stunning. When I bought mine, I wanted that or Atomic Silver, but there were no red ones available at the time.

Congrats and enjoy!

I actually didn't want red because I didn't want to draw too much attention, but I was looking for PCS/radar cruise/LKA which is hard to find and it happened to be red. However, now the red is growing on me

Nice! That color combo was on my radar as well. Glad you got what you wanted!

Sad you didn't join the hybrid club (since I remember you researching it), but congrats on a wonderful car. Nobody can argue with $27K for a GS that loaded and not too many miles.

All the best,

Congrats! That's one loaded GS.

How do you like the heads-up display? Is it color? What exactly is displayed?

I forget what car I drove briefly with a heads-up display, but it made me cross-eyed and hurt my head. I'm betting it isn't an issue with Lexus.

I wanted to get the hybrid, but it was too expensive.

I love the HUD! The 2013 isn't color, but I believe the 2014 is. It shows MPH and it also shows the radio station when I change station, or volume when I raise/lower volume. I think you can customize what it shows.
