Very nice.

Random question, what do you use to make your music DVDs?

Thanks everyone for the comments. The car is amazing. I just realized yesterday that the outside mirrors tilt down when reversing, I've been looking at the cool backup cam and forgot, seems you have to have the mirror control switch in the correct position to activate this feature.

Oh I also forgot to mention that I ordered the Sik ram din connector (in black to match my interior) while I was waiting for the car to come in, ordered from Amazon and got free shipping Thanks to Bichon for pointing me into the direction of getting this cable, it works perfect and since I encode my tunes using high bit rate (some are even wav files), my ipod sounds like CD's in this ML system. Love it. Only wish the cable was about 6 inches longer.

DeviousOne, that CD you see in the photos was a CDR I burned a while ago from my PC made from some iTunes songs encoded with tags, I was not expecting it to show like that but found it cool to see all the track listings. Too bad store bought CD's don't show all that. I could always re-burn some of my store bought CDs to show tags but having too much fun with my iPod and the ram din cable now.

Congrats on your new IS. Welcome to CL. I know the feeling of the research, decision, waiting and finally the big day. However, we have all seen similar pics before...while you are proud of your baby think about all the memory these pics chew up and consider less in future. Also think about body side moldings from the ES to relieve the slab sided look and be a little different from 99% of all the ISs out there. Just a suggestion. Enjoy your ride and let us know your impressions.

I don't have a 14.4 modem, so all these pics are nice to see, stock or not.

Here are pics of the rear sunshade you requested. It was just starting to lightly sprinkle rain so it was a mix of sun and clouds, mostly sun still. It's so quite you can't hear it go up or down, very fluid and as you can see neatly tucks away.


Looking through the rear view mirror at the sunshade to give you an idea how it looks driving.

Sweet! The IS has come such a long way since the 300. I've always loved silver, as you can see, but my heart is set on the Starfire Pearl.
