Couldn't help myself.
I wanted something different and new, and then I saw the black on red edition and was sold. I was immediately impressed with the changes they made to the car, aesthetically and with the suspension.
I guess my P-car is going to have to wait.

Thats an interesting color on the car.
:drool:
Did the new car come from the factory with a HKS exhaust or did you order one immediately?
Great purchase, congrats!

I had the HKS on my first ISF and the Lexus dealer installed in on the new F before I even started her up for the first time.
I had the coilovers factory customized with Swift springs and a custom spring rate, so the lead time is 3-6 weeks. :(

The 11+ cars feel completely different than the older ones. Good choice.

You sold the old F and bought a newer F? What are the differences with this new Red edition?

I have never seen a car model that's not google-able.
The only market that call this Red Edition is NZ/AU.
What did you pain the Brakes with?

Just the red seats probably. The main difference is 08 vs 11+, completely different suspension, torsen lsd, different steering ecu, etc.

probably, she slept over a few nights downtown... it was one of those weeks
the "red edition" is just how it was sold to me, I ordered it without seeing the black on red leather.
thanks for the compliments guys, I cant wait to get the coilovers installed.. this wheel gap is killing me
here's a quick snap of the interior, its a tasteful amount of red.. full red leather interiors are overkill.

I got my hi-temp brambo decals in finally.
They forgot to include my black set, so the only option I have right now is white.. might as well give them a shot this weekend.

Is this a legit Red Edition?
Google says Lexus only made 10 Red Editions for the Kiwi people.
