Default Hello!, new guy here...

My first Lexus, a 2007 IS250. I thought about a 350 but I already have a 500HP 2001 Mustang GT so I opted for a lower price and a little more gas milage. Here are some pics....















And if anyone cares a couple of the Mustang...

Dude, I think you and I live in the same apartment complex. I'm pretty sure I've seen that mustang, and there's a new is250 with OEM chrome rims and magnussen's plates floating around.

I know they are, I test drove an IS350 but the extra 300 ponies in the Mustang are even nicer...
