Default Tonight might be my last night with her

I may just have sold the IS-F, we should meet tomorrow to finalize the deal unless the buyer backs off. While I'm sad to see it go I look forward to what the future brings. It has truly been one of the best cars I've ever owned, performance, looks, sound, reliability, this car has it all. If I ever go back to a 4 door this will be on the top of my list. For now I'm going to just buy a beater to drive around in until I find the perfect replacement. Most likely a GTR but a V8 vantage or 997 turbo also appeal to me. I'll keep you all updated on which route I go.

Thanks,

Yeah I'm selling as is, the buyer really likes the mods, he currently owns an IS250. I already sold the factory wheels, the headers would be too much of a pain to take off, springs too much effort for what I'd be able to sell em for and the exhaust and intake might as well stay too. Him and his wife are both excited about the car and I'm glad I could sell it to a fellow Lexus enthusiast.

Sad to see you let her go, but I know it's nice to try something new after awhile.

Actually the 2013 is supposed to get another power bump to 545, so that should help more 2012's go on the used market.

*edit* new GTR just announced today with 545 hp.

I'm picking up a 2005 chevy aveo from my brother in law for $3800, tires are like 60 bucks, that's like a tank of gas in the F LOL. Whenever I get in it I feel like I hear that circus song they play for clown cars. lol
