I feel a bit old in this forum, but I love my car and feel like I'm in my 20's again when I drive it.

I could have bought a Lexus a lot sooner, but my priority was getting my wife through medical school, and my family didn't have the money to buy me one when I was in high school or college.

I'm envious of those in their teens that have an IS. This is a car that would have landed me the head cheerleader in high school if I could have had it back then.

Yes. Yes they did.

We should make a poll: How old were you when you paid for your own Lexus?
exactly....

most of these teenie boppers are driving a car their parents actually own right?

so if the question is what car have you driven that you don't actually own, I'd have quite a few exotics under my belt (lotus, lambos, ferraris, countless AMG and M bimmers, a bentley and even a rolls royce)
