Lexus Fanatic
I had a 1996 Altima SE, 1999 Altima SE Limited and then an Infiniti G20. Was always into the 4 door sports car feel. The IS300 blew all those cars away in every category.

Lexus Test Driver
I traded in a 1994 VW jetta for the IS300. Before that , I drove a 1991 chevorlet berreta, 1992 ford crown victoria, and kept owning a 1995 mitsubishi eclipse gs-t, with some mods during my IS300 ownership, pic is below. Also for a short period of time I owned a 1991 nissan sentra SE-R, so for a month I rocked the se-r, eclipse and is300, love to own three great cars at the same time again in the future!
Vip Josh- very clean civic
3rd element- nice shot of your es300, you can see how great the gauges are in the pic!

an old, beat-up 1995 Saturn SC2 with a black primer hood while the rest of the car was green. Body was not in great shape and the pop-up light motors didn't work so the lights were alwayws up ans never folded down when they were off like they should have been. That car was a true POS, I drove it to it's last breathe, and then somehow someone bought it off me (for really cheap but it wasn't worth $100 hardly).... Big improvement with the IS300, it's nice to have some reliability!!! Oh, and 3rdelement, I'm surprised you didn't go blind driving at night with your old car's gauge cluster hah
