Picked up my IS250 about 4 months ago, actually wanted the 350, but alas we never got the 350 down here in the shape i wanted. We do have the new (2014) 350's here, but out of my price range at the moment

Nevertheless on to the vehicle details, bought it from 70 year old man. he kept it in good nick.

1. 2007 IS250
2. RWD
3. Gold Almond Metallic
4. 16 alloy stock rims
5. Wald Replica on its way so none just yet
6. black non perforated leather
7. The colour isn't my favourite, but at the time of purchase this one was in the best condition, i can always do a colour change at a later stage, one nice thing about it is that i haven't seen another one in the same colour driving around here, always the usual whites, blacks, charcoal and maroons haven't pulled up next to another gold one yet. The colour is starting to grow on me slowly, maybe after a few cosmetic upgrades you never know.
8.

9. SOUTH AFRICA
It's the first time that I see an IS in that color.

Purchased the car because I wanted something a little more practical than my Miata.

1. Model [[250]] or 350
2. [[RWD]] or AWD
3. Exterior Color - Starfire Pearl
4. 18s Stock
5. Spoiler or no spoiler
6. Interior color - Black
7. Anything you want to mention (options, others considered, previous Lexus owner, etc)
There was 1 previous owner who had it as a lease. Looks like he painted the front grill, and all badges black. Also tinted the taillights, Or swapped them out? I dont see where the film begins. Which looks Okay, but I prefer the red and chrome badges. Did a terrible job on the badges and grill too

8. PICS, PICS, PICS!!!
9. If you are INTERNATIONAL, state which city/country your representing!
San Diego, California
10. Post pics or links to your car (you can upload pics in our gallery)
Congrats on the F Sport model!

Hello Club Lexus!
I just bought my first Lexus,even though I've been driving Toyota trucks for years.
It's a 2007 IS350 with 100k dealer maintained miles,loaded with Luxury package ,ML with nav and XM Sat. and spoiler options. Did allot of invaluable research on these IS350's here on this great forum before buying.

I've had many American and German sports cars in the past including a 1987 Porsche 911 Turbo and 2002 BMW M3 as my last two but I'm loving driving with this little black baby now. I still have a highly modded 4Runner 4X4 and will keep the build pretty simple on this IS350 with 2012 headlights and BC Racing suspension upgrades just penciled in at the moment.

1) 2007 IS350
2) RWD
3) Obsidian Black
4) Stock 18's blacked out
5) factory spoiler option
6) black heated cooled leather
7) 3rd owner with only mods being every blacked out
8) driveway pics with the cell phone and the monroney sticker pic when it was bought in July of 2007

It was painted flat black. I'm going to get the hood repainted next spring as it has many rock chips and will paint it to match then.

I will try to post pics soon. Love the car. I find myself trying to find places that I "need" to go in order to drive it. I had a Mustang GT in college. This thing just embarrasses that vehicle. Refined, quiet, and drives like a dream. It hugs the road.

1. 2008 IS350
2. RWD

4. stock 18s in grey
5. Currently have a stock lip spoiler installed but recently purchased a ducktail spoiler, also have an ISF grille installed and a roof spoiler and a front lip and diffuser waiting to be installed
6. Interior color is cashmere I installed lexus logo lights on the underside of the door
7. Bought her at 62k miles from a VW dealer and was pleasantly surprised when I took it home to find that the previous owner had most likely been an enthusiast because of the f-sport intake and exhaust system love the sound and power of the car especially after test driving the 250 I felt the feel of the car was great but lacked the power
8. The photos are before I added the grille but I will post more pics soon
9. Scottsdale, Arizona
