New owner of is250rwd. Wanted reliability, fun and relatively fuel efficient. IS350 is a 10k premium over the IS250 in Canada.

New ride at night



Canadian dashboard. Warning lights on only because it was on accessories mode









Old car: but still runs pretty well.

Congrats on the new purchase and welcome to the IS family. I see you've already been attacked by the mod bug.

What are your future plans for the car?

For the future (in no particular order):
25% tints in the back
Partial clear bra
Tanabe exhaust for better sound. Stock is too quiet.
Lowering springs cause I don't like the wheel gap.
All LEDs for exterior and interior
HID low beams.
Vaistech Ipod adapter
New Wheels.
Front lip
Blacked out emblems.

It will be slow but gradual thing. Stock is too cookie cutter.
