Default Introduction. Fairly new to forums

I've done an intro in the regional/local forums. I guess ill do one on here also so the rest of the community will know who I am.
My name is Joel and im from socal Los Angles/Pomona area.
Im 28 and i work in radiology
Long time euro/German owner and now im much happier with my IS250. I actually bought an Audi A4 before i got the IS and returned it. Here is my story on how i ended up with my IS.

Anywho, with out further ado, the pics (dont mind the poor quality cell pics)
2007 IS250 Black Sapphire premium package w/ navi.
No mods, YET!

Thanks! and I decided Im going to do aesthetic mods first. Mods are going to be ALL OEM. Im a fan of OEM mods. Im actually going to see if i could get a custom licence plate that says "ALLOEM" ha. =)
That being said, My friend gave me his $500 gift card from lexus when he sold his GS. With that i have already ordered the front and rear GFX spoilers/lips from Sewell. Ill do suspension and engine mods later down the road so itll feel like im driving a new car.

Congrats and welcome to CL...

You already have nice starter wheels for OEM... I wish I had those on my car.

Anyway, seeing that you are in CA... if you are around the Bay Area, don't forget to sign up for BOS which is our largest Lexus Meet of the year so far. There is a deadline for registration... you can sign up in regional chapter forums then into Northern California Lexus Club

That Audi woulda been a sweet car if it was clean. But you got an IS...which is hella nice too. Great color choice too, it's a rarer color; I don't see many people with that.
