Default Here's my new toy.



2010 Lexus IS350

Hello all, it's six years old but it was well taken care of. Now it's my turn. With 105 miles on the odometer it's just broken in.

I only added tint and wheels.

Exhaust and intake are next.

Hey all, New here as I just bought my 2009 IS350 today. It is Starfire Pearl and has 120k on it. This is by far the most fun car I have ever owned.
I have some plans for it but will take a bit of time.

2009 IS250 6MT -63k miles when bought, now at 67k?
RWD
Obsidian
18" factory wheels, Hankook Ventus S1 Noble2's
No spoiler - debating on whether to do one or not.
Interior is two tone black with grey/silver doors, leather, etc, dark grey burl wood trim.
Heated/ventilated seats, aftermarket Bluetooth added, LEGO license plate frames. Looking to add LSD, F-Sport intake, front grill, shift ****, short shift kit, improved clutch (possibly F-Sport and possibly flywheel as well), exhaust (not sure which, but eventually full exhaust), IS-F steering ECU, suspension upgrades (sways, shocks, coils), illuminated scuff plates, paint brake calipers red, or replace with red BBK calipers, plastidip logos and lettering. Basically, I want to slowly modify this car to be something more awesome than it already is...

Hello,

I recently bought this 2011 is250 with 73,500k on her. She is in immaculant condition...black interior and gorgeous exterior Mica Grey.
The price was $15,900 which I thought was great considering the condition of the car. I traded a 2004 350Z in also....so I was out the door
about $10,300. Seem like it has everything but the Nav package....but I don't need that. The car runs like a dream....but is a lot slower than my Z.
BTW....does everyone put Premium gas in their cars or do you cheat with lower grade gas? I know the manual say to put 91 or higher in, but is it necessary?
So far I have been putting 93 octane in. Most likely I will continue to do so since the manual says so.

IIRC the 2.5L V6 has a high compression ratio which in turn requires higher octane fuel to prevent knocking. I use Shell 91 and have been quite happy with the performance.

Hey guys, my name is Caleb and I just picked up an IS350!
I'm not entirely new to the forum or the Lexus community, but new to this section of the forum so figured I would introduce myself.

1. 2006 IS350
2. RWD
3. Tungsten Pearl
4. 17" OEM Wheels
5. Spoiler
6. Black Perforated Leather
7. I've previously owned an IS300, 1.5JZ Sc300, and GS300
9. Chicago, IL



So far all I've done is catch up on maintenance and put snow tires on it in anticipation for winter.
Immediate plans are coilovers and then some power mods (Intake, exhaust, tune) until spring when I'll focus on wheels and exterior.
