Default Getting a new car...

Well, after 6 years and 100k miles later on the Lexus I am going to add another car to the stable

I will still keep the IS, haven't modded it in a while and probably wont anymore... a very reliable ride and hope it will continue to shuttle me around for years to come

I love Lexus reliability, so my new weekend warrior will have a Toyota drive train.... but it wont be a Toyota or Lexus.

The car is waiting for shipping, will post some pics once it gets here.... but feel free to speculate

Congrats on the new add to the stable.
Once there is a LEXUS in the barn it's all good, lol.

Hurry and get those pictures
