2006 Lexus IS350 with 18000 miles. New MSRP was $47K. Got it for a STEAL. Black/Black, Aluminum accents (NO WOOD!) RWD, 306HP V6...paddle shifters, sport tuned suspension, sports package, Mark Levinson Audio system, Nav, push button starter, keyless entry, bluetooth, Sat. radio, heated and cooled sport seats, power EVERYTHING.....its a hoot to drive, handles great and it'll run forever....even when I do get something with a few turbos in it, I'll probably keep this as well. I'll still be lurking.....

 

Nice pick!

mods on the way?

 

damn....you can pick up a IS350 for under 30k? hmm..

 

Not usually....retail on THIS car was $37k.....I was a hair over at 31k....but found another one less loaded at 30k.....

 

I am looking into it...coilovers and rims YES....

 

Great pickup...I looked at one of these before pulling the trigger on my 996. When I opened the thread I was half expecting to see a 996 TT

 

congrats on your new ride! Yup, coilovers and rims should be the first mod.

 

WHAT! where's the mini?

 

Gotta love direct injection!

 

Swett...enjoy it!!!

 

I drove my friend's IS350 recently and pretty impressed with the car. It has plenty of power and good handling for a daily car. CONGRATS!

 

For all the reasons you mentioned good choice, enjoy the new ride.

 

Congrats... enjoy the ride... that car will last forever...

 

congrats! Heated and cooled seats?!? color me jealous

 

congrats! now you need a new name.
