The rarest GS F in the US
#16
But then again, I might just deal with their Odometer and keep track of the miles that way and convert when needed. Doing a quick search on Toyota/Lexus forums, some say you would have to get the entire display taken out just for that, and that is definitely looking to be to much.
Also since you're in Boston, did you get a chance to go to the New England International Car Show? it was pretty epic

Yea I saw this and called them before, there family owns a business in Canada and they brought the cars over when there were no used GS-F's I would buy it but I really cant deal with the odometer and since that can't be changed for some reason that's a deal breaker but I love the extra features that Canada gets for the GS-F, also technically that is carbon fiber its just the reinforced carbon fiber polymer.
pretty sure the odometer can be changed from Metric to Standard with the dealer scan tool. shouldn't be that big of an issue.

I'd rather buy the car with the features rather than installing them myself. Also might just be overall cheaper to buy up there, even with tax/import).

I'm having the hardest time trying to figure out whether it looks best in USB 2.0, White or Black. But seeing that Blue in person just blew me away. Coming in tied for second for me were the RS7 and NSX and the show. Not the best pics, but something.
I have no idea why everything I upload is sideways on this site

yeah that might bug me too, but to be honest I don't even recall the last time I actually looked at the Speedo on my RCF. I typically look at the digital readout or my navdy HUD.

Initially, I was hesitant to pull the trigger (see my first post via History). The lack of official records and wonky history didn’t help. The selling dealer gave a plausible explanation not too far removed from your information, so now I appreciate being able to piece the puzzles together.
