Hey Red! how's everything going? Sure, you can have the exhaust, but how am I going to get it if the car doesn't make it??? Tough one...

Of course Javier! I've already met a couple of PR CL members here, so I'm pretty sure that it can be done. I'll try to organize something at a nice place so we can show the rest of the CL members how pretty PR is!!

your car is amazing.
Thanks for the comments! But stealing rims is not the way.... you could end up in jail and you won't be able to enjoy them

Thanks! Unfortunately, I don't know the offsets, you know how secretive those high-end wheel companies are about releasing that information I love the rims! and NO there is 0 rubbing with the wheels, even with 4 passengers in the car

Please let us know Oh did you shave the rear's ?

THanks
Hey t0e! The ride quality is very good! pretty much the same as with the OEM suspension and wheels. It is also very quiet too! No, I didn't shave the rear fenders or did the plastic liner reshaping in the front (with the heat gun).

Default perfect place for a Lexus IS photoshoot !!

Puerto Rico, or The Island of Enchantment, as it is also known, is a real paradise. It has warm weather year round. Today 79 degrees Fahrenheit. For those of you that haven't got the change to visit Old San Juan and our beaches among other locations, here is a preview. By the way, great scenery for a Lexus IS photoshoot.

They're illegal in Texas and in PR as well. I guess I like to take my chances with the law

Thanks Vince! I was actually going to buy a Tungsten Pearl one, but I went to the dealer and they had a CW right next to it. That's when I decided to go with the CW and don't regret it one bit. CW is a great, elegant color!!

I couldn't agree more Warrionex PR is an awesome place to take some pics of cars (and hunnies) Could you all imagine a photoshoot with my CL photography idol, Razox, here?? It would be AWESOME!!!!

Razox, I haven't seen your work in a while, you're invited to come to PR anytime!!!

Thanks! In my opinion, the IS has one of the best designs of cars at the moment. Those guys that designed it in France really deserve an award!!

Very nice PSI!! Thanks for the chart. Do you know which one of the offsets would apply to us, 2IS owners?

Alex:

I got them surfing around the web. As you can see, I used large thumbnails not the original size to respect owners copyrights. But don't worry, you'll have plenty of time to take the photos yourself when you get here. I don't think 1gig of memory in your camera will be enough for the IS photoshoot.
