Default so, i'm welcoming myself to the Lexus Crew

hey dudes, recently traded in my BMW for the is250 (we dont get the 350) in Australia, probably better as with our taxes it would be over $80k and way too overpriced.

Anyway, had the car for about a month now not regreting the change at all. Looking forward to getting and providing lots of info as needed.

some pics... of the BMW, its a 325ti Sport 6sp man








new car

Welcome. At a glance it looks like the steering wheel is on the wrong side. What's with that? It is a nice car in a nice color and it's nice to have you in CL. You will continue to love the car.

Nice ride! You will love the car. I think the interior design and bells+whistles in the car are much better than the Bimmer! Did you get an AWD?
