Oh and Congrats on your purchase! It's a beautiful color! I am assuming that's an IS250? What options did you get?

Belive you me you for sure made the right choice and went with the right colour. Enjoy your new purchase this car is amazing. Only problem with the 250 and I have it is that its ***** are quite small not enough ponies under the hood besides that this car is a dream.

Many thanks for the posts ! If you have any more please don't hesitate to post them. Yes its a IS 250 because in Europe (Switzerland in my case) we unfortunately don't have the possibility to get a 350
Apparently in 2008 they will offer a 4 or 5 liter IS but that's too expensive on gas so I went for the 250 (and could not wait).
Hesitated a long time between a 330I and the 250 and finally went for the Lexus (but I really was hesitant). The interior is what convinced me of going with Lexus. Although I really like the exterior of the BMW (M package) I really think the interior is a disaster. I currently have a 330CI.
Thanks for the warm welcome !

A good predicament to be in! Either way you win!
