Default Welcome me to the IS world.. haha

Well, ive been on this board for a long time, and have owned a GS400 during that time. Ive listed my GS400 for sale, and today i went and picked up my new IS250. Its a lease, and through my work, so i have almost no payment. Anyway, its a fully loaded IS250. It has Nav, Mark Levinson, Pre-Collision, headlight washers, Park assist, Luxury package, etc. Im probably missing a couple things, but its pretty loaded, and im pretty happy Why didnt i go with a lesser loaded 350? Because i dont need a fast car anymore. This one gets better milage, costs less on insurance, and i got a better deal on it. Its Smoky Granite Mica. I would post pictures, but you all know what a stock IS250 looks like Anyway, ill be around this forum a lot more. Let the modding begin!

Thanks for the welcome guys I already picked up the OEM iPod integration unit earlier today, gunna install it soon. Ordered some silverstar ultra bulbs for the foglights, and also ordered some Polargs for the parking lights and dome light Will get the windows tinted soon, and probably order some Tanabe springs.

Talking Welcome to the IS world

Looks like marriage and family life has really settled in! Nice thing between modding the GS & the IS is that there aren't as many mods for the IS compared to the GS. I'm sure you'll find a way to mod as time and finances permit.
BTW, my girl has been at the shop for a week, so if I get her back and there are missing parts, I'm coming straight after you
