Hello there.

Wanted to say hi and introduce my newest car.

2002 IS300
96,xxx miles
5-spd
LSD
Black Leather/Escaine interior
Moonroof

Car is 100% stock. Came with snows and recent T-belt and clutch maintenance.

Very very happy I choose an IS over a BMW 3 or a TSX.








Some quick pictures of the car. Needs a good buff and a little interior cleaning but overall 8-9/10.


This is my 25th car! I also have a 99 sport Miata and the girlfriends 2010 Forester. My first Lexus (and first Toyota). Bought it for a great daily. Might end up with some Koni's and a front bar. Also considering intake/axle back. I have the miata for auto-x and track duty so hopefully keep the IS pretty tame.
