She needs a name b/c she GROWLS!!!
Found an '06 IS 350 in Dallas. The purchase was a nightmare of pushy salespeople and duplicitous practices, but we got out of there with the car and I figure the pain will fade like the pain of childbirth...given a week or two.
All of my cars have been named Grace, but holy heck...this girl GROWLS. In fact, it was the deep throaty growl that whipped my head back around after I ruled it out as a smoker's car. (Hubby stayed in the car long enough to start it!) Clearly Grace is too gentle a name for a wildcat
I know I'm not the only person that names their cars...any suggestions?
She has some mods that I won't pretend to understand, but Hubby could describe in detail. That said, all the windows are blacked and that will have to go ASAP b/c Oklahoma is very picky about that. In fact, I may take her pic before we remove the tint b/c I'd love to post her here and find out if anyone knows the previous owner. I have a few questions about the NAV...I think it may have been added later, but mostly I'd like to thank them for taking excellent care of the paint/interior. (I don't like the blacked badges, but that can be modified again.) Simply pulling the cabin air filter dropped the ashtray factor by about 3/4. After she gets her "breathing" treatment, I'll be a lot happier.
Most of all, I'm curious to know if she already has a name that I can live with

Thanks!!! Keep them coming!
BTW, does anyone recognize this car? Prob had different wheels. Grill blacked. Back badge blacked. Windows blacked. Dropped in the front. Cold air intake (?) added. More mods...don't know the names. (Sorry, I was tired and didn't pay attention!)

Looks nice!
Mine is also named Lexy... Sexy Lexy.
As far as mods, looks like you have the F sport grille (blacked out) and HKS exhaust (I think).
You should pick up a set of red out tail light vinyl overlays off eBay. Best $10 you can spend.

I'm madly in love with the Hubs...but, yeah...when I heard that growl for the first time "sexy" was the word that came to mind! LOL! I can certainly see why you named yours that. I'll have to check out the eBay overlays. Thanks!

Mine was named "Black Princess." How about Duke or Mighty Max? Congrats on your purchase and welcome to CL. Don't recognize the car though. How about leaving the rear windows tinted, is that ok in OK? Looks like you already have the red out film over the amber part if the tail lights. The HKS exhaust is the loudest out there.
