New Toy: IS300

Post by mandm177 »

So, i sold my Z cause i got an offer i couldnt refuse, and in order to keep myself sane (as well as the ladies) i needed to get a comfy car. I found a used 2002 IS300 for sale, and after a multitude of FLAKERS ON CRAIGSLIST :x i finally found a dealer to sell me a car.

Anyways, ive always wanted an IS300, i had a deposit on one back in 2000 when they were just coming out, but after some stuff happened, i had to take my deposit and use the money for other things. Fast forward some years, and 3-4 cars, i finally have one.

Here are some pics to start off with:

appreciate you looking out for one in austin for me Thaison. i guess i couldnt be patient enough, but im happy with the purchase. its not super clean, but i got a good deal on it.

Anyways, with the sun going down earlier and earlier...i decided to get some 3000k HID's for the foglights and doing the turn-fogs-on-with-parking-light mod :)

the IS's first mods!
