I have a 01 IS 300 and I like the car a lot but here is the problem. When I first bought the car I only drove it a few miles a day to work and back and other small driving adventures. Then I got promoted and started to drive my car a lot and now I drive all day becasue I am an accounant manager so I have to drive from office to office. I am undecided because I had my car dropped had 19's on it and a small lip kit on it. Then I cracked 2 of the rims and someone jacked my front lip off of the car. I have my stocks on it and it is still lowered and have a PLP intake. I love the car but it has 90k miles. So this is where I turn to you guys and I am looking for advice should I keep my car and still finish what I was going to do to it such as new rims and lip kit or should I get a new car and start that project. Help me please I am confused.

Thank you

 

if you are going to keep the same job, you shouldn't be thinking about "starting a project", you should be thinking about getting a beater

 

Keep the car and finish your "vision" and get a beater to drive to work.

 

Okay so let me get this straight you guys are telling me to keep my IS with
90k miles and continue my goal and buy a beater. What kind of beater do you recomend. In the title business my customers or clients expect us to drive nice cars. So what kind of car do you recomend

 

here's the thing, if you are driving a car around to clients and such, you don't expect that car to be in top notch condition, especially if you mod it. you want a "nice" car for clients? get a nice one and stay stock on that. modding it is not getting you anywhere. a beater does NOT mean it's not a nice car, in my book it's just a car that i drive around with and not spend extra money modding. we have been thinking about getting a ls400 beater, so?

and i didn't say keep the IS or whatever, but i said if you want to keep a project car and mod the hell out of it, stay it away from your "client" car

 

buy a used camry or accord to use for work

 

Thanks guys for the help. You have helped me out a lot. I knew that you would point me in the right direction.


Thanks again
