Hello from the UK

Hey all, been lurking for a while so decided to sign up

I absolutely love the quality of cars here and the modifying aspect of these cars over in the States, shame its not the same over here....

Well im 20 and I currently own a IS220d in Windsor Blue with an Ivory interior, she currently has a set of LX-Mode grills on there, and a wald rep spoiler waiting for paint. my plans for her include a set of wheels, coilovers/air, a lip kit and hopefully a respray

well here she is.

thanks, Jamie

nice, I like the side marker lights (us don't have them) and probably the red fog lamps on the rear bumper light up, right? (us don't have them). probably no speed limit either - enjoy. what is a 220d? 2.2 engine?

178 bhp, around 400 NM torque (295lb ft).
Goes up to around 240 bhp, 500 NM torque with a diesel box. (increases fuel pressure)

What he said

Other than the engine everything else is the same.... sunroof cars are few and far between and i would love the twin front indicators you guys have in the us!... and the 2 red bumper reflectors dont light up as standard. Unless you buy chinese units with led'd in them which i done last week

Cheers, jamie
