We all know these don't sell like hot cakes and all LC are in an exclusive owners club, but I have to admit I see them all the time. Granted I am in Colorado where we like our LC but I feel like I see one every day. Below are total sales for the entire US since 2008. Given such low numbers, does anyone else see a lot on the road? You are 1 in 15,000... pretty cool if you ask me.

YTD - 2,756
2012 - 2,895
2011 - 1,662
2010 - 1,807
2009 - 2,261
2008 - 3,801

Total - 15,182 in the whole country
 
Visiting my parents in Santa Monica, CA (where I grew up), last winter, I saw 2-3 a day of the 200 series. In Nantucket where I spend 2-3 weeks per year in the summer, I see about 5-10. Also have seen more than 50 late model Range or Land rovers and even an ICON.
 
Tons of 200s itb Raleigh, nc. See 3 to 4 a day. If we count lx570 then 5 plus. Different ones. All of sudden the 13s are everywhere. Really like the lc interior for 13.
 
Few and far between here on Long Island. 2 summers on the beach and yet to see another 200, I love it that way. Almost never see them on the road either, rare.
 
In Wichita, I see a 200 series both Tojo and Lexus about once or twice a week. Local Toyota dealer has had a black 2013 sitting on the lot for a couple of months now.

I see 100s almost daily, 80s not so much.
 
There is only a few of us in Wyoming, but I see them all over in Colorado. In Steamboat I see 1 or 2 a day...
 
I wish there were more around. We'd have a much bigger, healthier aftermarket ecosystem.

And maybe my def of exclusive is a bit off-kilter. NFL Hall of Fame. Nobel Peace Prize. CEO of Fortune 1000.

Owning a truck? Diff strokes for diff folks I guess. :)
 
I live in Memphis, TN and I see more LC's than LX's. I see 1-2 200 Series LC's a day and maybe 1-2 LX 570's a week. Around here, a lot of reasonable wealthy people own large parcel of land for either hunting and farming and enjoy the LC's for comfortable exploring their property.
