So it's check-in time? Paul from Burnaby, BC. This will be the 4th Lexus in our family, but first that's mine.
2014 Lexus IS350 F-Sport AWD, 62,000kms, atomic silver on black. 2nd owner, brought in from Alberta, traded my 2004 Z4.
Options-wise it's fairly loaded, including ML audio and the rear sunshade, but was a bit disappointed to find a couple things like auto-wipers missing. Fortunately there's a how-to here for that
First day, after initial washing:

Picked up this 2015 IS350 AWD a few weeks ago. I have managed to have Ceramic tint put on. I also installed a 12Volt.Solutions remote starter module that was super easy! Also swapped all the regular light bulbs for white LEDs.

Navigation, F Sport. No Mark Levinson audio though

Ceramic tint just installed. 70% on windshield. 35% on all sides. 20% on rear windshield.

Default going for a 200t

Hello everyone,
Im currently the proud driver of a 2013 honda accord v6 coupe with an injen cai, its a fwd beast. Unfortunately I made some bad financial decisions and I need to get out of my up side down situation.
I really like the is200t, I test drove one and its gorgeous inside and out, but pretty slow compared to my current ride.
It looks like an intake and ecu mod would get me to what Im used to in terms of power and definitely torque with the boost.
Any recommendations for me?
Ive been looking at the injen cai and burger motors ecu box.

You're in a bad financial situation and upside down, so you want to buy a Lexus to make things better? Uhhhh....

i traded in my 2011 V6 accord coupe EXL for a 2014 is350 AWD f sport.

i love my 350. it's a tad quicker than my accord, but not light years faster. i'd recommend test driving a 350.

Hey everyone, just added our second Lexus in the garage this past weekend for the wife (aka my weekend car ). L/Cert 2015 is250 awd F sport. We both came from Subaru backgrounds. She upgraded her legacy to this car and I've owned a few WRXs and an STI before going for the GX470. I miss my STi the most but I am becoming a fan of the Lexus brand and we both love the level of service we get whenever we go to our local dealership (which I'm sure is a hit or miss but I love our dealership). Mods for the IS might be put on the back burner because we bought the extended warranty but I'm still looking forward to when that day comes. For now I'll be lurking on other's builds.

Post 2017 Is Turbo Fsport

Hey guys, I'm Simon from Jamaica & new to the forum. I recently got this beauty imported. Its a 2017 IS 200t Fsport in White with Roja Red seats. Probably the only & first one in my country that has the new facelift in F Sport model. Car runs smooth & very comfortable apart from its lag in the lower rpms, I have no complaints. It has some aesthetic mods done to it. apologies that the wheels look a bit dirty in this pic but i just got the car cleaned up. I will post more of it in the different sections.
19inch Vertini wheels
Lowered RSR Downs
Carbon Fiber Front Splitters
Carbon Fiber Rear lip Spoiler
EOS License Plate holder
