Hello, my name is Justin, and my parents just got me an is250 from out of no where. Its not new, it's a used 2006 model with 14000 miles. I dont really know much about is250s, so i decided to join the CL forums to meet other IS owners. Im only 16 so i am really new at this. So is there anything i should know about the car? any defects or problems?

yes there are some things you should know:

this thread, and vin numbers are on p.4, if you have questions on your vin, DO NOT POST IT ON THE INTERNET:
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...-vehicles.html

but... thats about it for 'major' stuffs, everything else is minor squeaks/brake dust...

Welcome to CL, hope you come out this sat, i would say you can tell your parents cuz being a lexus club, most guys are older (like me)... but that can be seen the wrong way too so... ask the rents if they wanna come, alot of us are 2IS owners so if they have questions we'll be happy to answer them, PLUS it'll be brownie points for you, trying to get dad to do the 'father son bonding' thing...

err... wait... mostly everyone is younger than me...

Sup Justin, I'm new to Club Lexus too. I joined a few weeks ago when my wife and I got our 250, but haven't been out to an official meet yet. (Haha, I met Judd at the Mililani one, but couldn't hang out). I'm pretty sure that I will make it out to the meet tonight......for more than 5 minutes.
