Hey Phil,

Sorry for the delay in the response. Been busy financing other lexus owners out there and I'm a novice to forums. I joined here to make sure that I wasn't going to have rubbing issues with my wheels.

As far as the H&R's, there is about 1cm gap in front and back. I am concerned that there may be rubbing issues with time due to settling. I had them on my Honda S2K with 18's and I had to go with a 225 tire in front and back to eliminate fender rubbing in the back.

The Injen intake just came out. sounds good on the 3.5L. Love the hissing in idle and it's throaty when I get her going.

Again, sorry for the delay. I will do my best to keep up with any thread I post on. I am sure that after the December to Remember sales event, I will have more time to keep up.

Default I got one!

1. 350
2. RWD
3. Smokey Granite
4. 18 inch stand alone option
5. Spoiler (Didn't want to pay for it at first, but available cars have it. Now I like it.)
6. Gray
7. Premium, Nav, HID, 18. Picked gray over black interior because I liked the two-tone look in the car.

I was considering this and a 335i, but the price difference was too much to pass up. I took advantage of the Taste of Lexus coupon as well... Great dealer experience too.

Only negative: Wish I had memory seats, folding mirrors, and a electronic close trunk (had it in previous car, haven't had to slam in a while). Also, my next door neighbor (who I have never met) has the exact same car and color... Is that a breach of protocol on my part?

Well now that you have the same car, I think you are going to have to go over and meet him!

Welcome to the NEW best car you've ever owned!

Curious how much they gave you on your trade and how much they took off MSRP from your 350?
