Long time lurker here now just joined the club! Previous car was a 2009 Honda Accord Sedan EX-L i4. Now a proud owner of a 2012 IS250 F-Sport in the beautiful Ultrasonic Blue Mica

Dead stock but have a bunch of mods in mind. Will be asking noob questions so please bare with me lol.

Previous car was a 2009 Honda Accord Sedan EX-L i4.

A lot of you guys already have some super clean rides, hopefully I can get to that level soon.
