2012 Dodge Avenger R/T - 3.6 L , cold air intake , 300 hp . Went like stink , best looking car on the hoist or flatbed. Was getting up there in miles and was becoming unreliable - had to get rid of it while it was still worth something.

I wish I kept her. Good , solid XJs are hard to find. I drove that jeep since I was 21. Almost 9 years. Barely put any miles on it. I search craigslist to see if the boy is selling it.

First post.
My IS didn't replace anything, however I needed a commuter car since my Tundra and Tacoma are killing me in fuel costs. Why not make the morning commute awesome?
I have been so impressed with this sports sedan so far. I'm going to get in so much trouble. Power delivery, handling, comfort is great. To be honest, I was not expecting so much out of this package. I actually enjoy this car better than my old 12 GS Corvette.

I recently bought a 2011 Lexus IS350 F Sport to replace my first car. I use to own a 2007 Pontiac G6 GT. I had this car for seven years and it was very reliable during this time.

This will replace my turbo-built Mazda 3 that was too fast not to fall apart apparently. I broke no less than 3 transmissions and replaced everything in the suspension 2x in the course of 90k. What is the service life of the shocks and struts on these cars compared to other jap cars? I have 99k on the is250, but I do not feel anything in the suspension that needs work.
