Default Mi New IS350 FSport

Hi Everyone,

I left these forums a while back after I totaled by SC400 but I'm happy to be back with my new 2011 IS350 FSport w/ 39,000 miles. My plans include going a VIP route.

Almost 600 miles and 19 hours later she was home.

I've been looking for some Club Lexus license plate frames but I cant find any . Are they out there?

Concerns hoping you all can help with:
1) My clock buttons get stuck and slow to come out. Is there a way I can clean them out to make the respond better?

2) If I turn the steering wheel ALL the way to the left or right it seems the power steering doesn't make it turn back. I can do doughnuts without touching my wheel. No issues during normal driving. Didn't know if that was almost a "feature" haha.



This is my "racecar" currently.

Thanks! I'm going to be really sad to see the mustang go. I was going to keep it but I know financially that's not the best decision. At least I'm selling it to my dad. haha.

1) Any electrical-safe silicone spray
2) Normal for the 2IS; I believe it has to do with the factory alignment built-in the car. You'll soon find out that straight from the factory, Lexus runs a pretty aggressive front camber/toe setup on these things. They advertise the tires are only to last 15k miles right off the lot.

Cool car. I like seeing the IS F-Sport in black; I don't see those often.
