Default So..my co-worker comes in and says..

It's 5:30AM, Monday and he's back from L.A.'s Taste of Lexus on Saturday.

He walks in half asleep and says "Whatever you do, don't test drive that car." I asked, "What car, the IS?" He said "Yes, it's FAST!!"

He's a lurker on here, so I'm sure he will ll see this. LOL. Just thought it was funny..

I want that 350 too much!!

The dealership here does receive 350's. However, they are not selling well at all compare to the 250's. The salesman once told me, " You can pick any color if you'd go with the 350. They are waiting for owners at the dock." I guess it is because the island is too small, speed-restricted (max 55 mph on freeway), and is enduring the nation's second highest gasoline prices.

Wow, here it's the opposite - 250's are easier to get a hold of, I think! Surprising since you'd think a lot of people around here would be interested in the AWD...

AWD's are slow selling here too since we do not have snow.. and off-roaders wouldn't take an IS to do offroading!!!
