That's awesome. What year is it? Does it have paddle shifters?
Thanks Tim, it's a 2010 FX50S, it does have paddle shifters, adaptive steer, MES, tech package, and all the goodies. It has 40,000 miles on it.
I pick it up next Tuesday, hopefully the new nav unit will be in.

Very nice! Are they doing all of these things for you free of charge?
I worked everything in with the deal Drew, also a set of 18" Alloys and Blizzaks for winter is included.
They also installed new Bridgestone Dueler 21's on the car.
I just have to pay for the side window tint.

Wayne! Go pick this bad boy up ASAP and start uploading pictures so you can make us all jealous! Your car is perfectly equipped, the color is amazing, and I can't wait to hear your impressions and comparisons after having driven both engines. Keep us posted!

Man I'm so happy for you Wayne I can't wait till you post up some pics!

It really sucks though you couldn't get it with java interior. Something about that color of interior in person just screams class. I was told by the dealer when people order the white M37s or M56s they almost always option it up with Java because of the contrast on the moonlight white.
 
Thanks everyone.

To begin with we left at 7:30 this morning, it is a 2 1/2 hour drive to the Dealers.
My FX35 does run like a champ and someone will be getting a fantastic car. BUT, I wanted more power and GROWL

Therefoe my quest for the FX50S.

I wasn't sure if I was going to make it this morning, the FX35 was getting very low on gas (I'm not going to trade it in with a full tank)

We made it to the Dealers and walked into the showroom and there it was our 2010 white FX50S

Karen squeezed my hand tightly and said "I love it"

We did all the paperwork and loaded everything up (we had 4 alloy rims with winter tires loaded in the back) and said goodbye to our FX35 ( we will still miss her)

A couple pics on the way home

Karen was concerned about gas mileage and this is what the fuel usage read for our 2 1/2 hour trip home, it was getting better as we drove on the highway.
For our US friends it is in liters and kilometers, I will convert it for you:.
11.9 L/100km = 19.8 US mpg = 23.7 Imperial mpg
According to the readouts we could travel a total of 900 kms or 560 miles on a tank of gas.

So far I am extermely impressed, I will do a write up in the next couple of days about it.
