Five times now someone has said something like "Wow, frm the front that looks like the batmobile to me." I should have directed them to CL whee they can see the real batmobile by Integress!

 

Just the other day I saw this guy getting out of his 06-07 is250 or 350 and he asked me if my 3is was mine. We had a conversation about our cars right there and then. Never got this attention when I drove my e60 BMW. Lol.

 

My car has a never gotten any sort of attention. Only recently I caught some people necks break when they saw my new rims on a freshly washed and detailed car at the local plaza.

My Range Rover definitely gets more attention in town.

 

Definitely get compliments on the 3IS and especially the colour from young to old. Brought it in for the first service yesterday and the service staff gave me thumbs up because it looked so much better lowered!

 

I get A LOT of compliments. This car is a definite head turner. People in 2IS's and Q50's grill me sometimes.. I get thumbs up and "what kind of car?" questions. My passengers say people look at my car when I don't notice. Before I had the 3IS and was still car shopping, my head just turned to a white F-Sport in an indoor parking lot and I was like "damn ...". Also brought it in for 5K service the other day, it's like they haven't seen the F-Sport in a while... just broke necks.

 

I park in front of my store at work. Old gentleman was walked back and forth twice to jock my car. Second time around as he was walking away he walked tight into one of those cement trash cans. All of us in the store watched it happen and all of us ducked behind the counters to laugh

 

Had a woman ask me is that a mercedes Benz? Haha

 

Mercedes Benz wishes.

 

I've caught a lot of people driving 3series BMWs stare at my car

****

Disclaimer! I know they were looking at my car because they were not wearing sunglasses and their front window wasn't tinted

Disclaimer! I know these were 3series as opposed to say 5series because I know what a 3series looks like from the front

Disclaimer! I was still paying attention to the road while driving when I caught these people staring for a nanosecond.

 

BUT HOW DO YOU KNOW THEY DIDN'T HAVE A 5 SERIES WITH A FRONT END SWAP?
loll Jk! I've noticed a lot of people is driving 3 series staring too. But then again, 60% of the roads in Glendale, CA are occupied by 3 series.

 

I don't own a 3IS yet. But when I was test driving the 3IS fsport in UW; a lot of people were staring at the car. One person in a Mercedes rolled down his window and asked what kind of lexus I was driving. It's a good looking car. It was so hard for me to walk away from the car.

 

You don't even look 16 bro.. You look like 19-20.

 

I was at a stop light yesterday when two good ol' boys in a white 80's trans-am said "Nice Car"

Awhile back I was walking out of Quiznos and there was a group of older russian guys ogling the car.

 

I've seen people take pictures and sneak looks but thats it.

 

I had a black base model 3is for a week and didn't notice anything. I took it back and got a white f sport 3is. I went to the mall yesterday and was waiting in the car for about 39 minutes before it openend and I watched countless people walk by breaking their necks, double looks, walking by and then looking back talking etc. Young children to elderly people which is crazy to me. It is such a beautiful car.
