NIce! that would of been my 2nd choice. I test drove the 250 AWD n the power is not bad.

That would be a good idea but it doesn't seem like a lot people wz IS are on the forum. Well at least from what i can c.

BTW. what package did u get?

I take glaciar frost black int. nothing else add but just premium package... I was gonna go for the luxury package... but i am only interesting in the HID... the rest doesn't worth anything to me > < what about you what package you are getting?? I think sport package sounds good deal... for is350... btw ... isn't that stupid b/c 250AWD didn't have sport package... how stupid = = ... cannot wait to see your new car yeah and I do notice that not much people drive is around at GVA ...

Nice. I had to go through the same dilemma when i was planning to get the 250 AWD instead. I wanted the HID and the moonroof but that means i would have to upgrade to the Luxury package.
You could just get the aftermarket HID for your car. Its not very expensive these days for nice 6000K HIDs. Yea its too bad that they didnt have a sport package for the 250 AWD.

Did u get the premium package with moonroof? Also did you get the paint and leather protection plan for Lexus when you purchase the car?

I am getting the sports package for the IS350. It has exactly the things that I want, HID, sports suspension, moonroof, and 18" wheels.

BTW, I would luv the c your car too!

neh ~~~ just the premium leather package.... no sunroof too = = haha... but I do spend money on those tinted window and paints... sigh another 900 CDN ... and extend the warranty to 8 years 140,000kms... but the sales promise me I will get a good trade-in price... if I buy this extend-warranty.... oh btw... do you know any good brand HID factory mod? ... wanna order one from Xenondepot.com .... but I don't know whether or not it is reliable... do you know anywhere around GVA that do a good job at installing HID?? ... oh by the way ... have you see the HID of IS??? is it Bi-xenon = both low and high beam or just xenon... add me up on msn if you are using it jacky_Hisashi@hotmail.com peace

I bought one that was made in Korea from SR in Richmond and those ones i got were great. I got it installed by my friends shop in Broadway and Main. He did an awsome job on it. Never had a problem with it on my Nissan. I think it is a xenon but when I was at the dealership trying the car out and i pressed the the high beam the HID did come on at the same time so it could be a Bi-xenon. BTW the ignition was not on.

Unfortunatly I havent had the opportunity to get one from Xenondepot.com but I know a lot of people from the local prelude club gets them and they are not bad. If your looking into getting quality HID then go with the Philips HID bulb.

Sure thing, I will add u as soon as i get home from work.

Welcome to the site. Its good to see more people GVA!

I know there is a place in Vancouver that my mechanic friend recommends near his work place for window tinting. His boss had his G35 coupe tinted there and does a great job on it. I will find out and let you know.

let me know !

I just talked to him on the phone. He said he needs to take a look first because its a new car and the lighting system is different.

I think 6000K is perfect. Not too white and not too blue-ish. I had on my old car X-terra and it looked nice.

604IS350

Sorry man, I just talk to my buddy and he said the place doesnt do any tinting anymore but he recommends us to go to Speedy Autoglass on Kingsway and 12th ave. He said they really do a good job on tinting.
