Default Introducing Myself

Hey guys, I just bought my IS250 AWD about 3 weeks ago, replacing my Mustang.. Thought Id introduce myself to the forum. I just moved to Austin Tx, any other Austinites around? Im trying to read everything to get caught up on all the IS lingo and products. Ill probably have a bunch of stupid questions for you in the weeks to come so try to give the newb some slack. NIce to meet everyone.

Welcome, GuRu232! Have you seen many IS's in and around Austin? My family lives in Dallas, and every time I go visit them I see AT MOST 1 or 2 IS's. It's cool, though, because you stand out more!

Welcome and congrats G!

Be sure to read the FAQ https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=196853 and take a look at the member map link to add yourself (plus to see if anyone has signed up near you).

Also take a look at the regional forums for local CL meets in your area.

Thanks for the welcomes guys. I was a very active member of the 3.8mustang boards so I am farmiliar with the search. As for IS's in Austin, I havent seen a lot of them around, certainly no modified ones.

Its the tungstun pearl with black interior and nav. I do have a few questions though. Do all the IS's that have nav have the ML audio system? Also, can the ML system play DVD's? Thanks.

so how is it compared to the mustang

Nav and ML can be obtained separately usually by special ordering but to watch DVD movies you have to have both, ML without nav can play DVD-A, but Nav without ML cant play any DVDs period
