this forum needs a dedicated subforum for people to post pictures. i know there is a modification thread, but having a subforum is much much easier to navigate and also it stops clutter in the main forum. all the other auto forums have these dedicated subforums, why cant we have one?

Haha you better get used to stock pictures from me because I will not do anything to change the look of the car.

:P No use in modding a DD IMO.

I noticed most of the backlash iSuxeL is getting happens to be from people with stock cars. Personally, I just don't look at threads with stock pics anymore. It amazes me how some threads with stock car pics can manage to reach 3-4 pages in responses.

So I guess mods are rims, body kits, exhaust, and intake.

Cookie cutter at best. :P

This honestly might just be the dumbest forum ever. All you guys that posted stock pictures fed right into his post. Nice work
Stock or not, they are nice cars, but I have to agree, I see enough stock IS 250's on the road, and could go to Lexus.com and see more stock IS's if I wanted. Now a stock LS460L, or a stock LS600hL, now thats some good eye candy. Those cars make me want to just go crazy.....BEAUTIFUL CARS.

Not a lot of people are proud of their stock cars. They're sometimes horrified by it. They have to soup it up just to make it pretty.

However, our cars are beautiful, stock or otherwise. Can't we be a little proud of that?

No one is forcing you to read the forums. Leave if you don't like it or don't open the threads that say "Just got my car (PICS)". One more thing...

Well, if it is the "dumbest" forum ever why are you posting still? Honestly, its not like these new car threads are disguised. The thread title always says "Just got my car" What do you think is in this thread? Little bunnies and sunshine?

Good idea! So good that I already did it the same day I created this 2nd gen IS forum.

We have a dedicated 2IS gallery, and it's one of the first links in the FAQ.

https://www.clublexus.com/gallery/sh...y.php?cat=3376 There are almost 600 2IS photos in it.

------------------------------------------------------
My thoughts... I like to see new members posting "Welcome me to CL" threads and seeing their cars, stock or otherwise. If I'm not in the mood to read them, I simply don't and suggest the original poster do the same thing; they're pretty easy to screen out and avoid. People should be allowed to be proud of their new ride and supported and welcomed.

The new members DO have other alternatives to creating their own thread, and several hundreds have availed themselves of the stickies at the top of the forum to annouce themselves.

I'm good either way and am just glad they've found and joined our community.
