Talking Big Surprise

So i come home the other day, and.............












its an 06 IS250 RWD stick shift, and i love it , i got it as a graduation present because im off to college at the end of this summer.....as far as hooked up? its got the premium package and a black interior, i need to get the XM activated and i guess it goes from there

Congrats welcome to clublexus. Wish i could have gotten a Lexus as a graduation gift. Im really glad to see more stick shifts being sold maybe Lexus will take the increased IS250 sixspeed sales and bring us a manual IS350.

Congrats you spoiled brat (j/k)
Actually, I hope that I am in a position to give my sons a new Lexus as a graduation gift when we get to that point. Getting a new car for graduating from high school and going on to college seems like a good incentive - I know it would've worked on me.
Enjoy your IS250, and when you graduate from College tell your folks you want a IS500 !!!
