Default My dream car: 2008 ISF

Finally became a member of the F family. I have been a Lexus enthusiast for years now and worked for Lexus for 4. I have been a member here for a while and I always visited the F section just dreaming bigger. Well my dream came true and I got my F.

It is a 2008 Matador Red
66k miles, Mark Lev package

It is the car from this thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...out-there.html

I took the warning and did all of my research. I sent a body shop guy to go check it out and he gave me the go ahead that it was repaired right. So I flew down to Atlanta and checked it out myself. Everything looked and felt good so I left with it and drove it back to VA.
I love the car and it puts a smile on my face everyday.

I know the back wheels are backwards, I'll get that fixed.
Installed an injen intake. That was the only thing wrong with the repairs from the shop. So I fixed that right away with the injen.

Installed weather tech digital floor liners, love the quality and fit. They are awesome
Installed a clear bra on the front
Installed LED interior and trunk lights
Installing a front tow hook mount when I get my tags
More to come I'm sure, thinking apexi throttle controller, muffler delete very soon, other little things

If it was repaired properly, you paid a fair price and plan on keeping it for a while, no worries. I have bought and repaired several cars and kept them without issue. Congrates...
