Default Is350

Its been about 2 weeks with my 07 IS350 SGM and so far I love it. It has the X-Package, and some things I didnt expect like HIDs. Its also really fast! (already got 1 ticket )yet still gets better gas mileage than my Accord V6. Minor stuff that arent included like heated/vent seats, ML audio arent missed. Already changed the oil to Royal Purple and it runs great.

Future Plans, just need the funds:
1. Rear Lip Spoiler-Does anyone have pictures of a CF Lip on a SGM?, if not im just gonna buy OEM from ebay.
2. Red-outs

These are on my wish list:
3. Full GFX Kit
4. F-Sport Intake
5. F-Sport Exhaust

Any advise with my future plans would be helpful.

I would also like to thank the whole CL community for providing me with great information and convincing my to purchase a great car.

heres some advise to help you save money or put money towards other things... the GFX side skirts, if your car didnt come with it dont get get something else, too subtle a change for the common man to notice.

And it's about the same price as other brand body kits, especially replica kits!

Damn nice upgrade. I, too, came from the Honda family before getting my IS350. I've had th 350 for a year and it STILL puts a big *** smirk on my face whenever I drve it. Can't get enough of the RWD either, the difference is night and day
