Surprised that the alloy rims are in mint condition.

Congrats! The Sportcross is one of my favorite Lexus models! Very rare, and it looks great with the 2IS wheels! Also dig the pink key fob, haha

So far it's an okay car. I'm still getting used to it. This is my daily driver now. I came out of a 4x4 Toyota. I noticed that people are nicer to me when I'm in it. Its the station wagon "stigma". Heck, even fathers in mini vans will give me that understanding head bob thing.

Nice to see you the other day, Micaiah!

I dig the X, would rather get that than a SUV.

It was a surprise to see you too!! And hey...At least it's not a mini van.

Actually I'm really starting to like this car a LOT now. I'm getting used to it. I've driven it every day since I got it and I finally took the truck out the first time in a week. I totally forgot where my gears were (6th and reverse) when trying to use the stick and reverse out of the driveway.

I'm not so afraid of being low now either. When I drive cars after being in the truck, it's a tad scary for me when other cars are "in my face".
