IS's running lights are in two locations? It seems like I saw the light on between the headlights and also on the inside edge of the inside light too.

Very nice! Your photos could pass as mine if not for the missing tinted windows. Get 'em tinted and take a new set of photos so I can send 'em to my friends...hahaha!

there are two bulbs on each side for the front turn signals... that's what you saw in the picture.

just hit the lock button on your fob and see which lights light up. we all have the same front lights pretty much.

Default Nice Pics Hapaboy

Ah, your pics are making me think twice about getting SGM (should be finalizing the negotiations and driving off with an IS250 Nav before this weekend). It is between SGM/Sterling and BWB/Black. I'm going with SGM/Sterling because I think it'll be more "classic," but I would love to have BWB/Black because it'll be more "fresh."

Ultimately, I think I'll stick with "classic."

As for the models, if the choices are between KT and Loralei (and no other choice), and you put a gun to my head, I'd say KT, since she's newer ... uh I mean younger. Well, probably newer implants... Matches the "fresh" look I guess. Besides, she sent me some free autograph pics of her and some DVD of her "soaping" up cars with other Import models. It wasn't even softcore. The unintentional comedy is through the roof.

No, I don't follow the import scene - one of those friend of a friend things.

That's a serious body. Was it mated with an "L" when you took these pics.
