Default Got an IS (FINALLY)
Hey there. My name is Wes. I live in Mn. Man, I have been wanting one of these bad boys for quite some time and have finally got the wherewithal to obtain one. She has some miles on her but has been very well taken care of. Completely stock sans the tine and wheels. Plans are to do an axle back, coilovers, wheels/tires, stereo, and a lip kit fo starters. I just came from owning a 240sx and a Miata before that. Quite a bit of difference between them I must say. Very glad with my purchase and look forward to being a part of the community.
Here she is in all her stock glory.



What I had prior.

That's a clean IS. I've always had an affinity to that black. Is she a 5 speed?

No sir. It is an auto. Actually my first auto in a "fun" car in quite some time. I want the wife to be able to share in the fun hence this choice.
