Just purchased my car 3 weeks ago. Thought I was going to buy a 1 or 2 year old IS 250... ended up buying a brand new one. My first new car I bought myself. Came with 5 miles on it...lol. Fell in love with it after testing driving.

1. 2011 IS 250 - Fsport Package
2. RWD
3. Starfire Pearl (aka white)
4. Fsport 18s (staggered)
5. Rear & Front Spoiler (fsport package)
6. Black interior
7. Fully loaded; Nav, Bluetooth, heated bucket seats, Voice command, etc.
8. Current Upgrades: 35% window tint all 5 windows and custom smoked rear taillights. Future Upgrades in mind: Fsport Intake and De-badge the "IS 250"

After 3 months of shopping around (mainly waiting for the right one to show up) I finally was able to get my dream IS350. Ended up flying to Tampa FL to pick it up. Its a CPO with 49K. Sport Package (with a wood center console), ISP Wheels, GFX, Sport exhaust, Nav w/ ML, and Tint. LOVE IT!

Just picked up an 08 IS250 starfire pearl for my wife. However I enjoy driving it as much as her, so basically a great purchase!

Hi everyone, I used to have an 08 IS250 and just changed it for a 2011 IS350 F-Sport... I loved the IS250 and now even more the IS350! It's smokey granite mica and so far it's plain stock, I might go with an intake and exhaust but not anytime soon.

I just joined today. Looks like a very informative site!

Bought my IS 250 yesterday to serve as my daily and replace my beater grand am - it's a 2006 MR - crappy iphone pics...




I have a few mods on the way - no major plans maybe wheels, a drop and a few tweaks here and there.

Here is my real beast:




in track set-up:


Don't imagine i will be super active on here, probably troll a bit and look for parts ideas - i spend most of my time on G35Driver but who knows...

Thanks for looking

IS250 F-Sport RWD, Starfire Pearl
After saving/shopping for ~5 years I finally upgraded from my 12 year old Accord , I'm going to miss that car .
Considered a 350 but I didn't feel like I needed the extra oomph coming from my old car and my driving habits.

I'm located in GA so I'm already itching to get tints on this thing before I melt inside the car. I already have black pearl emblems on order and considering options on how to de-chrome the shift **** or just bite the bullet and get the F-Sport **** (my hands get kind of sweaty and I don't like messing up the shiny chrome). Next is a mild (~1") drop...

I apparently work right by Zen Motors (seems to be pretty well received on here) so this could be problematic for my wallet, but so far I'm loving the car! Biggest concerns are paint care/maintenance to be honest, I'm super paranoid of pretty much everything. I need to take it to get a full detail sometime soon to make sure that I get some good protection since I have no idea what the dealership did, if anything, before I picked it up.

Crappy Phone pictures:
My friend also just bought his a week before mine, he should be posting soon perhaps.


Looking to move soon to a much nicer place soon, with covered parking!

3. Smokey Granite Mica
4. 18" Alloy Wheels
5. Spoiler

Having trouble posting pics, but will figure it out and follow up.
