Default Looking to buy this is250, thoughts?

Hey guys currently have a 2015 is250 fsport and a 2011 G37 Coupe however the G is on its way out so Im looking to trade it in for this car at a local dealer: http://www.glentoyota.com/UsedCars/2...vEWIPbSO9APNWg


Any thoughts? My G37 has nav and all options for its year.. This car is a base model (i guess). Curious if it has xenon headlights. I know it has the LED DRL but I could swear some models do not come with xenons. Ill miss the nav and the power tilt wheel that the infiniti has. Let me know what you think.

I just traded in my 2014 is250 for a 2015 is250.. don't mind the speed.. i guess I would be missing out because I drive the G from time to time.

He already has a 2015 250, so he knows what he's getting into at the very least. Any reason you're wanting another 250 since you have the 2015, especially last gen at that, or is the 2011 going to be a DD?

Premium package since it has the ventilated seats and wood trim, no nav and no ML audio. 17's. IIRC, if the car has the LED drls (which it does), it should have HIDs. Doesn't look like it has the parking sensors in the bumper. It seems overpriced for the options and mileage. Should be able to knock off 1 grand easily on the asking price, I'd try to shoot for 2 though.. Probably better deals to be found out there IMO.

Previously had a 07 is350 and I really enjoyed the car it self so I figured I could go into same body smaller engine and be happy. The g37 is a daily, sort of (long story) so I would be missing that extra speed and handling. I think price is a lot too for milage & lack of options. Problem being my credit is shot and got approved through a company called road loans, they only work with certain dealers.
