Default My new, used '06 IS350...mini photoshoot!

I finally had time to detail the outside and the engine bay amongst all of the SC pollen. Though doing this made me see all of the imperfections in the paint; but what can one expect, it's used and from up North.

Regardless, here's what I picked up a week ago :

* '06 IS350 w/ 31k on the clock
* Premium and sports pkgs
* Needs new tires, still on OE Dunlops
* Glovebox contained all previous owners documentation
* Everything works flawlessly, except for the center console not wanting to open up fully. It slides back halfway, but I cannot seem to get it to lift up.

And now for what we all came here for...the pics!!!

Thanks guys! Quite the far jump from a 5sp '95 Honda Civic w/o A/C to this. Still kinda in "shellshock" really, but the good kind. LOL!

Congrats. I'm in the Augusta Ga area so we're almost neighbors and I can relate to the pollen problem.

Very nice display. One advantage with worn out tires is it makes your car look lower. ; )
