Default Picked Up new IS350AWD - Initial Impressions

Picked it up last night - went for a spin. I stand by what I said previously, this is a totally different car then my Gen 2 IS250!

First Thoughts:

The Cup holders are in a stupid position - tough to get my Venti Starbucks out and terrible for the passenger.

Clock Looks stupid...ridiculous actually.

I have a Non-Nav model and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to delete the stored radio stations - I can add but there does not seem to be a delete. Haven;t read the whole manual yet but did try quickly to find this...Anyone?

Car drives amazingly well...aside from these minor things above I am very happy with it.

Don't think you can delete radio stations.. but you can replace them with your radio stations. just go to the radio station you like, hover the mouse over station you want to replace, and hold down.

Thanks - I will try that - I didn't think to do that because I had already added my favorites below the ones the dealer put in.

I hate the cheap looking digital clock on my 2IS more. Reminds of me of my microwave.
