Default New IS250

Hi everyone, Ive been a member here for almost 2 years now, ever since I was considering a IS350. I never got the IS but my mom just got one yesterday. She got a 2010 IS250 in matador red with tan interior. I've always loved this color and it is a really beautiful car. She used to have a 2005 IS300 and then traded it in to lease a 2008 Honda Civic. Coming from a Civic to the new IS is quite an upgrade My step dad also traded in his 2005 LS430 for a new 2009 LS460. Double whammy

She is already enjoying it and so am I. I like the look of the interior but black is so much easier to keep clean. The dash and carpets are a really dark brown color and almost black. I had a hard time distiguishing if it was black or brown.
