Thanks gentlemen. I appreciate the through put... You have to love community. My meter went from 80-20 do it. To 20-80 do it. And hey you never know what might catch my fancy in the coming months...

There definitly isn't anyone around here setting of the TP color around here. So who knows.

As for the 335i coupe... ... they are like 9 irons (not that I golf) in Chicago, everyone one has one, even fewer know what to do with them, and if you are lucky enough, you don't have to get another to replace anytime soon (made no sense). But seriously it is a beautiful car... but its a "status" thing which about #6 on my top 5 list... I hear too much about issues the moment the warranty drops... and it costs you at least 3000k for a cup holder and seat warmers

But I love my IS... the 09 A4s look good (no pep unless S4 but getting better from what I read)
CTS looks avant garde and anti-upping back into the segment too... Mercedes C-class... nice, front... back, was last minute and the quality issues...

I am still pretty sure it was "abused" during that 5K miles.....
I think it may be a service loaner as well. if they can prove it was not, go for it. If not, avoid it. Everyone beats on a service loaner worse than a pinjata at a kids party!!!

i can check the vin i suppose but i see no reason why the dealer (who i have a good rep. with) would place ISP MOde and a sports package and use a IS350 as a service car. Plus all i ever see as service cars are the RX's. So I am more than positive it is/ was an Exec. car.

If they had the tinted widows and clear bra i probable would have been all but sold...

But I thinking maybe I will truely do some sublte changes by spring/ summer (chicago) when the IS-F parts roll out... but "oh it felt so good" and tempting when i was there.

That is very true, I have never seen a 350, only demo units!!!

Buy an ISF, 335i or M3 but don't buy another IS350 after all that. That isn't that much of a different car. There is no way I could do that.
