IS 250 AWD finally arrived
Just got my IS250AWD SGM with Black interior. Boy what a car it is better then I expected. I just finished a lease on an SC430 so the power of course is gone but I do love this car. I think having the Navigation with all the onscreen options is incredible. My treo 700w works perfectly with the bluetooth feature. I can't believe how big this manual is. Congrats to all of you in getting this car!!!

Congrats!
That's what I wanted in the first place but the Sterling Interior came and I was waiting 2 months + so I just picked it up. I see so many AWDs now a days but SGM is the rare color.

Can you unlock all 4 doors with keeping the key in your pocket? I do love this color on this particular car. I have never seen this color before and I must say its cool. Will post pics soon. Anyone getting satellite installed on theirs or have? I am awaiting them to get Sirius port so it can be installed.

Congrats... How big do you perceive the power loss to be from your SC in everyday driving and tight curves?
Also, when did you order and was it a special order or awaiting for dealer allocation?

Ok I was waiting for the question how do I go from an SC430 with 300 horsepower V8 That I loved so much to a V6 205 horse AWD car. I have two answers on why. NEW BABY... Almost got killed in the SC in snow. There is definately loss of excitement here I have only had 2 door sports cars and this is the first sedan. I must say this is almost as fun as a sportscar without the power cause its got more room and very nice features

I will post pics tomorrow.... Funny thing is I didn't order the car. Dealer wouldnt give me a good discount if I ordered it rather then got one on the lot. So he put me on a waiting list for the Smokey Granite with black interior at the end of january. So almost 2 months. Not too bad of a wait without ordering.
