Nice looking mods already.

Dan is the worst salesman ever. Very rude and unprofessional. That whole dealer is just crazy. They go through a new manager every month for the used car sales. Peter used to be the general manager....or thats what they told me. He told me to come down and he would take care of me when I was having problems the second day of taking delivery.

I drove down to clifton and Peter is gone on vacation. A waste of 200 mile drive. Such a unprofessional dealer. I am glad everything in your car works...but hands down worst car buying experience we ever had happened at Tri-County Lexus. They don't care about their customers since they are a high volume dealer. They own the honda/toyota dealership next door as well.

But I promise you it has everything else.

I am making this post for My car Only and All the modification I will be preforming to my vehicle in the next 2 weeks. I am really weird how I mod. Before I even own a car I purchase all the customization parts before hand, so that when I do get the vehicle I can spend a few weekends just hooking it up.

My goal is to keep my vehicle engine stock as possible as far engine mods I love the comfort and low engine noise it makes. I do hate body roll hense why I am upgrading to the Sway Bars.
I upgraded from a 2002 Toyota Celica GT-S

The list below at the mods I will be doing to the vehicle

- F-Sport Sway Bars
- Interior light bulb changes
- Radio/steering buttons light upgrades
- Steering Damper
- Vais audio ML
- Clear door lights
- Door handle accent lights
- Subwoofer custom made box
- Headlight bulb upgrades
- V Carbon fiber vinyl Trim
- F-Sport racing pedals
- Custom ski port

Standby for Stock PICs need to detail my car first =0) I hate those love bugs =) I think there called that because they love our cars lol

I will post in PICS/VIDS uploaded on youtube.
r
I live a couple of miles from TriCounty and looked at that car.Nice shape but had a Carfax rear hit.Still looked very,very nice.
Wound up buying a new leftover '10 from a Lexus dealer in MA for $36600.
Did you see the new '10 they had in the show room at TriCounty?
They want too much for it.

Yea they wanted crazy money for that car and it didnt have any of the features my car has and was selling around the same price as mine. I bought my body mechanic friend with me to look the rear bumper over and it passed so to speak. Car runs great just detailed the engine it was filled with road dust ..Also the car didnt come with an engine cover so I made them purchase me a new one.

The showroom new '10 IS350 has a lot of options including ISP wheels,NAV.Stickered at $45300.It had a good sized chip on the rear bumper cover and has 3-4 light and medium scratches,490 miles and they wanted over $40K.
Seems they still have it.

Your '08 looked good when I checked it out.No evidence of the carfax hit.I didn't look under on in the trunk area but it probably just a rear bumper cover tap and paint.
Enjoy it and I know you will.

I would be careful posting pictures with documents showing a full name and address.

I bought my 06 in May with the nav and sport package with 18.3k miles for 21,000. Had to pay my state tax when I brought it home since I got it out of state.
