Wink Hello from Houston

Just reaching out to fellow 3IS owner. This posting is technically overdue, since I've bought my car since early December.

A short bed-time story. I had a 2gs (GS400 Platinum Series) which I let go because I was bored of her. Decided to placed a custom order on 2014 Mercedes CLA250. But since MB couldn't get the vehicle on time to the US, I cancelled my order and I came back to Lexus family.

2014 IS250 F-Sport. Ultra white/rioja red. This one is fully loaded for IS250, at least in TX. Got navi and BSM. I was surprised to know that I can't add ML or memory seats on 250s.

By far I've only installed 20% ceramic window tint all around. I just received parts for LED interior swap, I'll post the pics later this week.

Anyone else have 3IS F-Sport in. Houston area? We should make a get together for 3IS owners.

Woohoo!!! Another Houstonian here!!! I got my 3IS back in October. White/Roja Red as well w/ 30% ceramic!

By any chance, do you drive down 59? Or hangout around the Bellaire area? I've seen a 3IS a few times in the Cafe 101 shopping center. Also @ Dave & Busters lol

Thanks! I don't see why people are afraid of being seen, but not afraid of saying ****s to others. lol

+1 on this. Love this dealership. More than Westside/Northside.

Mine is slightly darker, I got the 20% (keep it illegal).
And probably, I live in the loop, so I go around 59 and 610 alot. I went to Fufu and East Wall a couple of times, but usually I park at the parking garage. Not D&B tho. We need Houston 3IS meet and greet
