Default Bought an IS350 today!

I'm very excited! I went down to the Lexus Dealership to just "look" at the new IS350. Turns out they had one on hold for a customer for 2 days, and the customer never called back to confirm or purchase the car.

The dealer said, well if you want an 06 Black IS350 with the Luxury Package, you won't have to order one, it's right here.

So we bought it!

PICS to come, but it's too late tonight to get any good ones. This car ROCKS!

If I was willing to wait, I probably would have got the Graphite Color, but the Black is very nice looking and it was here now!

More later, I hope to participate here....

Congratulations!!!

I think you may be in the running for the shortest wait time for a 2IS.

Let's see some pics

Thanks guys! I'm very excited about this car!

I'd take a bunch of pictures, but it may have to wait for a few days. Raining here in Nor. Cal for the next few days

I'm digging the ML system in this car too, it's nice to listen too. Last night I popped in a DVD just to see if it would play it. Funny to see the little NAV screen play "Sin City". Mostly a novelty as I won't tear apart the system to make it run DVD's while in motion.

That was very lucky for you (and not the guy who put it on hold)!

That's a very wanted combo. Congrats on the find!
