Got it for a great deal, so I couldn't turn it down. I'm still keeping the Accord registered so I'll still be driving it. But this will be my primary form of transport.

My 2003 Lexus IS300 :)

I'm ordering function and form type 2's for it in a couple days.

Yes, automatic of course :lawl:

143k miles. The vehicle was serviced on time only at Lexus of Rockville. So it's service history is impeccable. It runs amazing and the leather is perfect. The only problem is that the guy was a cigar smoker. So I still need another session of deionizing to do. But I like it.

RWD FTW!

And I got it for 4300 after taxes, title, and tags. Dealer cost FTW!

That's a lot of miles but at $4300 it was worth it for sure. I think those are pretty dependable, and even more so since yours was kept up at a dealer. More pics!

RWD is most certainly ftw.

More pics tomorrow!

It's a whole hell of a lot more dependable than the accord. Especially the tranny.

Water pump and timing belt were just done as well as oil and tranny fluid. New tires too. Only down is the fuel economy. 24 at best and premium only. I could use regular but apparently these 2jz's really don't like it. So the extra few bucks is fine with me

Just bought a SRT intake system. That comes with a piggyback chip as well. So for $600 I get the appearance, the sound, the throttle response, and a guaranteed 20+ horsepower extra to the wheels. Definitely worth it to me :thumbup:
