Just wanted to say hi. I purchased My 2015 Lexus IS 250 F Sport a little over 3 weeks ago. I absolutely love it! Over the last four years, I've went from:
2003 Honda Accord EX V6 - Had for 4 years
2012 Kia Optima SX (heavily modded) - Had for 2 years
2015 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring AWD - Had for 14 months
My fastest car was easily the Kia Optima SX. It had 274 HP stock. I went to the Mazda for Colorado winters (AWD). I missed the look of my Optima but wanted something nicer (interior and exterior build quality). Once I sat in the IS 250 F Sport, I knew I had to have it. I could have gone for the IS 350 F Sport but the power didn't mean as much to me. I've done a few mods to it, such as a real carbon fiber emblem, swapping all interior bulbs for white leds, 25% tint, front bumper clear bra (which I might remove) and white led backup bulbs.
This was my 2012 Kia Optima SX
This was my 2015 Mazda CX-5 GT AWD
Last but definitely not least, this is my 2015 Lexus IS 250 F Sport.
Welcome!! I just moved out to Denver a few weeks ago. I have an IS 350 F Sport. We should go for a cruise sometime. I find that my car is extremely sluggish due to the change in altitude. Makes me kinda sad haha

I'd be down. I'm more up North though. Like 15-20 mins North of downtown.
The Kia will be faster than your car. How did the Kia handle...the car looks nice. Those things were about as quick as my G35 coupe which surprised me. I've played with one in my 350 and I didn't think it was quite as quick.

I really loved the look of my Kia. I put so much money into it. Thing is... although it was much faster, the handling, ride quality, and interior quality left much to be desired. Steering feel was non-existent, the car had tons of body roll (coilovers helped but the car became bone jarringly stiff), and the interior panels would rattle when loud bass was played. The car also handled quite badly in snow in my opinion which is what led me to buy a Mazda CX-5.
