that would mean that you're an old lady with a poodle.

once an old lady, always an old lady.

and by extension, now you're an old lady in an audi, with a poodle.

Old lady or not, the GS is design for old people who like to have a little fun once a while. The IS is design for young people who want to own a entry level Lexus. The ES is old people who want to own a entry level Lexus , and the LS is " Hello, I am there, I am on top. Look mom, I am somebody "

I'm not sure but I think we've been insulted, maybe??!! Trying to get a grip on the whole old/young thing.... Lets see, Wife eligible for Social Security, me not far behind. Had IS, therefore by definition, we're young people, but now have GS, so now we're old but like to have fun - makes the brain hurt, or what little is left of it..... Oh look a poodle!

Lol Orzel, they do say the brain is the first to go . You must agree, there are not too many old people driving the IS. I wont even go into what type of people drive the RX

Geez, don't tell the wife! She's been under the impression that all the wolf whistles and waves were for her and that flaming (natural) red hair!!! If she ever finds out that they were actually looking at the car, I'm in deep trouble - redheads when they're 'unhappy' can make even the Taliban look like boy scouts!

Hmmm, I drive our RX But I do have a small sign in the back window, has a pair of jump wings and tab, Rangers Lead the Way!! Does that help?

Hey, if other drivers looking at the RX make the wife happy, then the RX is worth every penny At my age, I know the young girls are not looking at me but looking at my car, I have no illusions about that

Heck, I like the IS and own a GS350. The IS is a nice car but my GF and I felt it was just a bit small (I'm 6'1, have long arms and legs). I really didn't even intend to look at a GS, but after I drove the IS, I looked at the GS and decided I liked it more. The dealer laid out a price on a brand-new 08 GS that was the same as a 09 IS350, so I went with the GS - red with the chrome 18s and a tan interior - beautiful car. I like the performance of the IS350, but I have an 08 CBR1000 - if I want a thrill, I go ride that.

There aren't many GSs around here, so that's a plus..
