Default I spend money I don't have on parts I don't need to impress people I don't know..
I'm a euro stance guy with love for the IS family now.
I picked up a 2001 black on black classy IS.
I haven't taken any photos of my new car yet.
i have big plans for the Lexus but for now, check out my last project.
Thanks.







My IS for now..

haha not quite.
I was in school in Spain for a short while so when I came home, a few friends called me Spanish.
I liked the simplicity.
Thanks by the way, and good luck with your new one

I just did the same things as you got rid of my MKIV GTI traded it straight up with 190,xxx miles for an is300 with 95,xxx. I miss the GTI at times, but this Lexus will catch a lot more attention after this crappy Ohio winter!

Pretty sure I just decided on the first wheel set for my new IS.
I'm trying to calculate exactly what offset I'm wanting first.
The guys at Klutch are incredible and if you don't follow their blog.. You should.
