it took a lot of nuts to do the trade. I had an MSM IS3 in 2006 that I loved to death. I bought the Benz which is a better car all around, but missed the uniqueness of the IS3 the entire time I owned the Benz. I'm warning you all now, once you got it, you won't be able to give it up. The IS3 is unlike anything else and it becomes a part of you.
Out the door the Benz went and another IS3 in it's place.

I slightly miss my GSX!
Been through a crazy amount of cars(and bikes) before and after then.
First car was an 89 Honda Accord LXi, had about 3 CRX's, a turbo 99 EK hatch, my 99 GSX (built 6 bolt 480whp), 89 FD rx-7 with an ls1 swap. Right now I'm looking for my first Lexus, I'm looking to bag a 98 GS300 black/black/black.
I may have found a winner in ohio! I'll keep you guys posted!
