Talking Got my Baby!!!

Well after 2 months of research and learning about the Lexus IS, I finally got one! Picked her up yesterday at Bay Ridge Lexus.

Pics-






I alread bought an exhaust from a fellow CL member. Bought his HKS Carbon Ti exhaust, thanks Sam!



As for future mods, tints, clear bra, intake or new filter, rims, maybe lower it and lighting changes.

i'd really like to see how the carbon sets up on your car, i've been trying to rule this option out, but you may convince me otherwise if i like your look. tyia.

Welcome to CL and congrats on the car. You're a fulled fledged member...buying mods before you get the car. That sounds familiar to a lot of us.

Congratulations on the car. Have fun driving it. Looks like you got an axle-back exhaust system which is most common on this forum. But it still sounds good and with the IS350, should pull more gains.

The LMF intake is also a good edition to the car too.

Yeah, that LMS and "addition" makes more sense than "edition", lol. I looked up the LMS takes on 15HP alone!! Well, according to L-Tuned website and they're proud to label it that way. But the downside is that it states: "Please check with your local state emissons, currently will not pass in Ca". Man, California!!!!! Terrible to live here if your a car enthusiast. Then again, California is suppose to be one of the car capitals of world, lol. Go figure on that.
