Nice car! Front end conversion? It's got the 2011 up front end. Also, you're missing the engine cover.

Thank you! Yes it seems like one of the previous owners swapped the front end, it had f sport badges on it but i took them off since thats a little too rice for me. Engine covers are still there though just took them off for the pictures.

Default Long time Toyota owner just joined

Hello everyone. I am a long time Toyota owner (6 Toyota's since 1995) and one Honda, and this is my first Lexus. Here are the details:

1. 2010 Lexus IS 350 Sport
2. RWD
3. Silver
4. 18" Wheels
5. Rear trunk spoiler
6. Bought it at 52K, only one owner, clean and never in an accident
7. I live in the Northern California Bay Area (Silicon Valley)

As I mentioned, I am a long time Toyota owner, but always wanted an IS 350. My previous car before this was a 2006 Toyota Camry SE V6 (3.3L V6) which currently has 140K on it. Last year my daughter started college, so I gave her my Camry. I was in the market for a 2018 Camry SE, but I ended up buying a 2018 Honda Civic Si (Black) that had a 6 speed MT. It was a very fun car, but ultimately I wanted to get into something more comfortable, and back into a V6. I began looking at used Camry XSE V6's, but as luck would have it a friend of mine in Southern Cal was selling his IS 350 Sport with only 52K on it. I decided to sell my Honda Civic Si, and bought the IS 350 for a great price.

So far I have had the IS for a month, and I am extremely happy with it. I just installed new brakes and new Michelin Pilots, and am loving this car! I plan to keep it a few years then sell it and buy another used IS

Cars I currently own:
1. 2010 Lexus IS 350 Sport
2. 2006 Toyota Camry SE 3.3L V6
3: 2013 Toyota Sienna LE

Just picked up a 2008 is250 with 135k miles in black, with black interior. The car has damage to the driver front fender, bumper and some smart guy cut the harness that runs in that area. I will be looking for a parts car to obtain these parts soon so that it doesn't sit ugly in my driveway. Other than that, the paint is great and the interior, other than the driver seat, is in good shape. I spent this afternoon conditioning the rear leather seats.
Will post pictures once i take some.

Smile Back in.

The 2000 LS (avatar)has been gone for a while. However just picked up a 2007 IS 250 awd apparently the headlamp adjusters are both cracked no idea what kind of repairs are needed. I will search the Forums. I am hoping the IS will be as reliable as the LS was. Apparently the guys who bought it were sending it to Saudi...Who knows with all the Bullcrap going around this crazy world. Car pictures to come
Cheers
