As for leasing, I don't like it. I leased an S2000 in 2005, and it never felt like my car, until I bought it at lease-end in 2008. I don't think I'll ever lease again, and I know I'll never buy German again. Unless the economy just totally craters and I can find a new GT3 at sticker; I'd buy that.
Please tell me you kept the S2000! What was the livery? I've got a 2001 Silverstone/Red.

Sorry for the delayed response, just saw this. Mine was a 2005 Silverstone/black, 15K miles, always garaged, used the Shin-Etsu grease on the rubber seals every year, primo condition and never abused, never tracked. The only problem is that in a fit of idiocy I installed a Greddy turbo kit in 2009. That honestly made it a lot more fun to drive; chassis dyno confirmed 50% increase in torque from 2K to 5K rpm, about 80hp increase. But I should have just left it stock. I sold it in 2022 for $33K to a fellow in Texas who bought it sight-unseen. I included all of the original engine parts so he could uninstall the turbo kit if he wanted. I wish I could have kept it, but I only have 4 garage spaces and I wanted a different car, which turned out to be the IS500.
Just picked up my new
, only 150 to be sold in US with this package. I'm betting on a future classic and also something that will hold its resale value as it is rumored it will be the last of the V8's. I'm still learning the car so I can't really give a comprehensive review but I have to say it is stunning.

beautiful
how do we get those mirrors. Part number available?
Are the mirrors fully black now or it is just for the blue vectors and how many will be built for the Canadian Market?
If they are all black now, is the body colour matched lower cover and post available as well as the chrome strip? I loved how that looks and flowed with the rest of the car.
Mirrors are black on all 2024's as I was told. The window tint was an add on by the dealer along with front protection bra and something called data dots that can track car if stolen. These are added by the dealer and they give you no choice but to take them at a big mark up I'm sure. Also Lexus states only 150 for US market, not sure if that includes Canada.
