Richie,

Great pics. Thanks for sharing them.

I created a subcatagory in the IS gallery for your pics. If you care to upload them there also, we can keep it around for a while.

Thanks.

No decent lexus dealer would "mark up" the car with dealer "add-on's" Some have and still are with the SC430, but the good dealers won't.

Pick a good one and establish a relationship.
