Default Moving from Mercedes to Lexus

I am looking to replace all our cars from Mercedes to Lexus (just made that decision 2 hours ago). RX for her, GS for me, and an older IS350 for me to play with.

I drive a 2013 Tuxedo Black with Brick Red interior F150 Limited. I'm Active Duty Army and both of these will be heading back to the states soon. Once they get back I hope to install some tasteful mods. Any opinions or suggestions on mods? So far my F150 has smoked LED taillights including third brake light and an AFE Intake kit. I'm looking to start similarly on the IS.
Looking good.

You are going to like the GS and the IS 350 as I have both. The GS rides a little smoother
but both cars are excellent drivers.

Nice match as well! White is usually my color of choice but I decided to change it up a little bit... Looks great in white!

Default Just bought my new IS250 F Sport

Just bought a new is250 f sport RWD 2014. Got it in the Atomic Silver color (here in Peru it is called Silver Titanium). It is my first Lexus as I used to drive an Audi A4. I'm counting the days to drive it (it will take 3 weeks to have it). I will upload some pictures as soon as I get it!

Traded in my '05 Mercedes SLK350 for an '14 IS250 AWD, Starfire pearl on Black, Luxury & Nav packages, 18" wheels upgrade. Have a boy on the way, couldn't fit a car seat in the trunk of the SLK with the roof down

Love all the new toys in the 3IS, but do miss the power and agility of the SLK.

Seems like a good bunch here on the forums. Been reading up on available mods. Already have a solid list together. Started with full LED interior swap. Can't stand halogen. Fog lights next, and looking to do an aftermarket front parking sensor add on as well since I only have a rear cam. Greddy intake, and roof spoiler perhaps.

Hello, new friends. Just converted over from a BMW to Lexus. I'm two weeks into owning a 2014 IS250 F-Sport AWD (Matador Red w/ black interior). Incredibly smooth ride so far. Loving the technology, something BMW still lacks. I had big plans to mod out my 3-Series coupe but the mileage racked up too quickly on me (gotta love northern VA commutes). Will definitely be modding the IS. Tints, ClearBra, de-badge, and RS-R Super Downs will probably be done next weekend.

Ive been lurking the forums for the last two weeks, but still trying to find some photos of an AWD IS250 F-Sport on Super Downs and 19s. I think this is the combo I'll be targeting, but want to make sure its not too slammed. Any specific members I should search to see this setup?

Hi everyone. Just wanted to post up and introduce myself.
Picked up my first Lexus (2014 IS250 F Sport) over Memorial Day weekend, and I'm loving it. Can't wait to get started on this project. I've owned a few cars in my life, and I've been modding ever since my first car in high school.

I'm coming out of a 2012 Hyundai Azera. Was pretty active in the KDM world with that car, but it's nice to be back in the JDM world.

Look forward to posting some more on here as my project 3IS gets started.

Here's a pic of what i'm coming out of:



And here's what replaced it:

2014 IS250 F Sport (Nebula Grey with Rioja Interior)
