Default New to me isc!

Haven’t had a chance to introduce my new car to the forum despite posting a few times.

I have a 19’ ES350 that I drive daily coming from 2x is250s (2014 and a 15). I got what I consider a great deal on a 2012 is250c in black with black interior.

currently has 107k on it. Purchased from second owner who purchased it CPO from Lexus about 3 years ago.

I had the car checked out at my local dealer who said it needs nothing expect maybe brakes and tires by end of the year.

so far I love it. No major issues except a slight chewed up center console piece.

Nice. The side by side picture really emphasizes to me how ugly the newer spindle grilles look.

We bought a 2020 RX350 in February... The spindle grille is starting to grow on me.

Great post! It's nice to see that there are still ISC's floating around nowadays . I do like the F-Sport spindle grilles more on the newer cars, but the entire design change was a bold move by Lexus and I love it!

The car looks great overall. The two things that really make your car stand out is the 2012 headlights and the LED LEXUS door sill. Keep us posted on this car. The obsidian black is a beauty!

I got the car in May, it was a diamond in the rough so I took my time cleaning it up before I posted it. Just wish it had more power. Would also like something sportier like an S5 vert. Not as reliable but, I feel the two don't compare looks like. Lastly the exterior is a mission to keep clean. It was a good deal which is why I picked it up.
