My 08' IS350 replaced my 02' TL-S. TL-S was a great car and reasonably reliable, but it was getting near 100K & I didn't want to have to deal with the transmission after the warranty ran out. I still have a 96' Prelude VTEC. Not as fast or luxurious as the IS, but it's so much more fun to drive!

My car before the IS was a 06 Evo MR 6-Speed. 350+ AWHP and 310 AWTQ. Custom stealth Alpine sound system. It was an awesome ride and very fast, but the Mitsu dealer in Tucson AZ sucks and they are the only game in town. So I sold the car and vowed never to buy another Mitsu until (a) I move to another city, or (b) a different Mitsu dealership pops up. Anyhow, I will try to post pics because it was a pretty cool machine. Unbelievable performance!!

My IS is replacing my Stage 3 Subaru wrx (304awhp/292awtq) Blast to drive! but noisey and very uncomfortable. I'll still always miss it though.

My IS replaced a 2006 Scion TC. Great car!! but I was tired of teenagers trying to race me at every stop light so I knew it was time to upgrade and give up the 197 dollar a month car payment....

My IS250 replaced my 96 Honda Accord. My Honda was a good car! Never broke down and was low maintenance.
