Default A couple F-Sports at my dealership

Saw these two beauties when I was getting my Lexus worked on. Was close to making a deal on the white one but they still aren't really looking to budge at all. The white one they were asking $52k

I personally would go for the Nebula grey one on the Graphite Vossens. I do like the uniqueness of the Ultra White one on RCF rims. How much was the price difference between the two?

52? It must not have many of the options. Also, for what it's worth, I think those black wheels look horrible on the white car. As for budging, the dealers right now have no motivation to move much on price, as this new model is moving right off the lot. Finally, I get a lot of compliments on mine, even from people who usually don't notice much about cars.

52,000 seems to be very well equipped from what i've seen?

Mine was 53 and some change its fully loaded. I honestly don't even know what else they could have put on there, has all the technology and even the spoiler.

What was your msrp?

I think Lexus does lots of regional packages/prices - here in Houston, a loaded F Sport RWD is a touch over $55K (that included the $400 accessory spoiler)

Mine was about 55; it's not an F-Sport, but it is AWD and did have a dealer installed spoiler (about 500), the NAV Pkg, the Lux Pkg, a moonroof, Infrared Paint (this costs about 500 extra), 19" wheels, fog lights, all weather pkg, an "accessory" pkg (including cargo net and wheel locks), and all the radar options (radar cruise control and Parking Assist with cross-traffic alerts and blind spot alerts - these are really useful and highly recommended). I think it has just about everything but the ML sound system, which I did not want anyway (had it in two other cars and don't really use its extra capabilities, as I am deaf in one ear anyway - I don't even need stereo, but a mono radio is not available).
For a non F, I surely paid something at the top of the price scale, but the spectacular red paint was the only color that interested me, and I will keep this for many years so I wanted all the tech available (I had my SC430 for 14 wonderful and problem-free years). I did get the first one in town, which is, of course a meaningless distinction of no value, but I do get inquiries every time I take it out, often along the lines of: where did the two door Lexus come from - that's a great looking car - I haven't seen one like that before, etc. Also the ever popular: "Nice Ride."
