Got An IS350
Wasn't planning on getting a new car, but went with my parents when they went in to look at the RX350 they wanted to get, and I ended up getting a Black on Black IS350 with Lux, Nav, ML. Parents picked up the AWD RX350 made in Japan in the Dark Grey (Gunmetal Color), don't know the exact color code Lexus uses for it. Got it from Peter @ Lexus of Glendale.
Let the modding begin. I came from a 94 Accord Turbo, (yeah its a rice rocket =D) to the IS350, huge difference.
Planned Mods:
Red Outs, Smoke Rear Reflectors, Fabulous Front Lip, OEM Rear Wing, HID for the Fogs, Polarg M4 Bulbs for DRLs and Subs since I think the ML system lacks in the lows.
Still don't know what kind of rims I want on the car yet or what kind of suspension I'm going for. Any opinions are welcome. Read/searched that there is the Eibach kit, H&R kit, JIC Coils, Megan Coils (which I do not even want to consider) and I believe another set of springs that are less mainstream. Tried searching for the other name of the springs, but didn't come up...if anyone knows the link let me know. Also are there any aftermarket shocks out yet, I did a search and nothing came up.

Congrats
I know who this is...
Congrats on the purchase. Enjoy the ride and dont let your father ever drive the IS350. And tell your mother that the Mica is a better color choice than the Silver your father originally wanted. And dont let him drive the RX either.
Hope your father isn't 
because now he has to skip his lunches to afford the Lex. 
An instant two Lex family. 
I was glad I was able to sway him away from the Acura and into a Lexus.
Check out the So Cal forum for the local meets; hope to see you at a few of them.
