T-Rex is some kind of fancy car

and you should used your seat belt in that car, safety is much more important when we talk about this kind of cars.

Dude you might as well get an ariel atom 2. I saw some dude on the freeway driving one 2 months ago. He was wearing a helmet lol.
But seriously, you will prob drive the T rex once every 2 weeks after you first few months.

t-rex looks stupid IMO, you should see if someone will trade your 08 for perhaps a 06 350 AWD...and keep the mazda if you really need two cars or haul stuff. I had a RX300 and my IS250. It does not snow in FL and I dont race around so that was perfect. But then I came across an awesome deal and bought an SC430. I would recommend an SC430 but its small, needs mods to handle well, and overall it seems like you would be happier with a 350 AWD. When I was 21 I had a 1999 Eclpse GSX (AWD Turbo)...that was a pretty sweet car.

i bought a Mazda CX-7 for winter and daily driving.. its okey on gas and its roomy and comfortable and havent seen the performance in winter time but it should be better than the IS250...

and this is the sexcii part... for summer... which is right now... im trying to buy a T-rex Campagna.. but its really hard to get my hands on one... so its been a challenge... and its not that reliable... but then again.. there is not that much in that thing.. there is a body, engine and 3 tires... oh plus 2 seats... lol ... but its sexciiiiiii and its fast... i rented one for a weekend... and it killed... like sufficated my friend's SL63...

however.. im gonna miss my lexi... and so many memories with that car... however... THE PROBLEM IS that i cant get a T-rex till almost next summer.. apprently there is a waiting list and stuff... so im stuck with my IS till end of summer... which kinda comes up to a good conclusion that i should just wait till next summer to buy one... but it just feels like eternity...

anyways...
any opinion toward this matter would be appriciated... and if you have ever driven one... let me know about ur experience and stuf...

That's the oddest change from one car to another I've ever heard of. I'm surprised given your car history that you went for the 250, I'd think a test drive would confirm that the car's far too slow for someone remotely interested in speed.

My opinion? That T-rex thing is an impractical abomination. It may have beaten your friend's SL63, but at least he can drive it in the rain.

Also good heavens, I've never seen more ellipses used in my life!
