Default Here's a recent photo journal of my IS...

Here's when I hit a halfway milestone for my 2004 back in April 2005:


4/10/2005 - My car at the huge Toyota Port @ Long Beach. Where most Toyota/Lexus & Scion pass through straight from Japan, fresh of the boat! This is where we got to park. It was basically a homecoming for our cars haha. Those w/employee hospitality booth passes parked here during the Long Beach Grand Prix. They bused us trackside on Shoreline.



4/30/2005 - Here are some photos taken from the NorCal SF to Santa Cruz Cruise down Cabrillo Hwy aka Hwy 1. RMMGS4's wife's car (aka INDGOGRL), my car and Ms.IS300's car.


Frontal view w/the lighthouse in the background.


Objects in mirror are closer than they appear!


Partial group photo at the famous Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk


Enjoy!

Ryan,

And no one can deny you get a lot of enjoyment driving your car.
