I just bought a 2006 IS350 last night and I can't get the smile off of my face! Man I love this car! I was driving a 2006 Acura TL and the IS blows the acura away! I actually have 2 mths left on the Acura lease, but I doubt I can drive it with the IS in the garage.

Thanks to this site for all of the reviews/advise!

BTW- I heard comments about the trunk not having a light- mine does???

The trunk light has an off/on switch.

Some folks were unaware of this and assumed they didn't have a light when they just needed to turn it on

Congrats and welcome. I remember the smile my IS put on my face when I picked her up from the dealership.
