Default New drop, nice weather!
Only two this time around, I'm still fairly new to the IS world, came from 08 Honda Civic SI, so it was two different animals, but overall I enjoy the change from manual to auto (sometimes).





I don't have any BIG plans for this car, I'm a married man now so I'll take it easy for now...


UPDATE 11/16/10
