Rioja red hard to find in CA?
Currently have a G35 that I plan on paying off in about a month or so. I will be looking in to getting an is350 f sport white with the red interior. However, I fear that combo will be hard to find used or new. Is this the case? Thanks

The dealer had 3 with that combo and I live in so-cal. Hahaha. I had a g35 coupe that I sold and got a nebula grey with red interior. I think it's a BIG upgrade.

When I was car shopping for my is350 f-sport in late 2014, I came across that color combination a few times before finding one with black interior, which is what I wanted. But I was also holding out until I found a used one with really low miles.

Yea ideally that's what I would want to do too. It's just hard waiting then trying to jump on something fast enough and get a loan in such a short amount of time before someone else grabs it.

I've spent the past past couple of weeks shopping dealers all across So Cal and by far the most common interior is the Red, especially with white and silver colors. Do not fear, you will find red.

Yeah, I hear you. I found one that was exactly what I was looking for, but I couldn't get my funds in place quickly enough. Then a few weeks later I saw it back on autotrader because the deal fell through with the original purchaser, so I jumped on it. Probably a good idea to secure your loan and get your finances in order so that you can pull the trigger when you find what you want. That will also give you more leverage to negotiate with a private seller. I drove up to Palm Desert from San Diego to pick mine up.

Curious..I know this probably depends on the bank but when you applied for your auto loan and the approved it, how long (typically) will they hold that loan for you until you need to re apply? I ask this because i'd like to get approved while searching but I know it could take months to find what I want or it could take just a few days and I wouldn't want a great deal to fall by the waist side.

This color combo is not hard to find in SoCal. I'm surprised that a few dealers have them in stock now. A few I found so far on their sites but don't expect a huge discount on this combo though.
