Got a teaser article from hubby's work...A month later, was privy to the entire spec binder, which I went through with a fine toothed comb at a restaurant in SoCal!

It was a cold and rainy day, late November Sunday morning...
... Girlfriend and I started looking for a new car for her.
Hour later, found the new IS on the Lexus website.
Early afternoon arrived at Lexus of Seattle.
Later afternoon, *I* drove home in new 2006 IS 250 AWD.
Evening, trying to figure out how, when shopping for a new car for girlfiend, I ended up with the new car instead?
Don't worry, as you can tell from my sig, she ended up with one about a month later.![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

I was either going to buy a Passat or Audi A4 and then saw the 250 on the freeway.....never concidered the Lexus until that point.
Took a drive in both and about a month later ordered a 350.

Was seriously considering the Infinity G35 Coupe and was even making offers at diff. dealers. There loss my gain we were fighting over like a grand. Left them and what I see across from there dealership was a Lexus dealership went inside an ask about th IS 350 and test drove, loved the car but no deal was made because of there price. Went internet shopping and low and behold five days later
and about a fifty mile trip each way saved me about two grand. O by the way after a had my IS 350 the Infinty dealership called and left me a voice mail about the price I was willing to pay, they wanted to match. I actually told him you snooze you losse. He ask what did I get I told him and he said nice car and good luck.
