went up to sfu for a friend's graduation and saw a black 2IS as I was coming out with a front plate that was hacked off and shoved in at the bottom vent area.
Then went for lunch at this korean tofu soup place down north road and as I came out, a black 250 was parked in front of me with an ings (or seibon? the slight bits of cf here and there had me confused) kit and volk rims; even had a CL sticker on the front.

Thanks!
It was advertised at $23,900. I made sure this one was made in Canada in order to avoid the 6.1% duty. Also did relatively good on the dollar by going through Vancouver Bullion & Currency Exchange (about 3 cents on the dollar better than any bank). The rest is the usual GST, PST, RIV fee ($204), and Fed & Prov Inspection Fee ($135).

very nice car, and she knows exactly what she wants done to the car.

Spotted Sorrgwa today. Directly behind me going southbound on renfrew then turning right onto 22nd around 3pm.

I wasn't sure it was him before. I just saw a White GS with HIDs behind me. then i got a bit of distance in front of him and saw the bodykit. I was about 90% sure it was him, but the glare and rain made it hard to see through the windshield. Then he turned left while I went straight and saw the white curtains, now I'm 100% sure.

Super sweet car though.

ah yup, that was me, was heading out to bismark and TD bank.

the stupid glare is cuz of the damn lenses! ive buffed them out as much as i could, but i think i have no choice but to look for a new pair of headlights =/

testing out the foglights, im running a yellow bulb in a yellow insert w/ clear housing gs foglight. the color that comes out is more yellow, but seems dimmer. i think ill just go back to using a regular pair of light bulbs w/ the yellow insert.

the lexus's dont have a rear wiper, so ive learned to rainX the crap out of the rear window.

no, i meant the glare from the sky on your windshield made it hard to see the driver, that's why I didn't wave to you. shoulda been clearer.

actually, your HIDs are pretty good, there wasn't any glare. I was debating on 5000k or 6500k HIDs, but I think I'm gonna get 6500k cause I liked the colour on yours.


Spotted a SGM is250awd with f-sport rims, anyone here?(i know hapuhapu has that setup) around 3am(half an hour ago) near #2 rd and westminister hwy.
