Another newbie!

Hey guys, just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Adam and I'm from the good ol' state of Minnesota.

Just flew out to DC to pick up my new (to me) 2008 IS-F. Ended up driving southwest towards the tail of the dragon and hitting a bunch of the awesome roads that North Carolina has to offer. Drove the car home Sunday and made it just in time to store the car as we're getting hit with snow right now.

I'm new to the Lexus scene, but not the car scene. Had a 94 Prelude that was fully built/boosted. I'm looking forward to having a "grown up" car and getting to know some more CL members.

Here are a few pics. Yes, I know the front wheels are on backwards but the tires are rotational and I don't feel like paying to have the tires swapped.

Hope to throw some wheels/suspension on it and maybe intake,header,exhaust.

Nice! I like the 1UP in the rear windshield. That last pic is pretty cool. Good thing you got her home and tucked away before the snow hit. Have fun with the F!

Congrats. Your going to love her, experiment with the sport mode and turning vsc completely off(hold button for 3 seconds at stop), Don't do that with any snow around! Those are the things I'm having fun with, just got mine 3 months ago. Check out hps silicone intake tube, cheap mod and looks good.

Thanks for the welcome guys!

I'm currently debating on going with a BC w/Swift upgrade or just Swift springs. I won't ever track this car (I only track motorcycles now) so it would just be for the street. I'm kind of leaning towards just the spring upgrade. My car modding bug has returned!
