Default new is350 x-package owner!

Hey everyone...
Hopefully this goes well because this is my first post ever for two forums i've been on. I recently sold my GS-R and I picked up a brand new 2007 IS350 on 7/17/07 =) It's silver ext. and black int. and its an X-Package plus premium package, navi, rear spoiler, and preferred accessories for $43,xxx out the door! I don't know if that's a good deal but I'm happy to be a first time LEXUS owner! I've taken it for a photoshoot the other day and the pics are getting touched up by my amateur photographer friend. It will get posted once i learn how to post pics on the forum. Hopefully i'm not wasting a thread... but yeah, what's up everyone!?!?

*Updated 7/31/07*
Hey I couldn't wait any longer for my friend to photoshop my pics so i'll post a few of what i have so far and maybe post some more later... photos taken by Susan Lay and minor touch up by me (if you can tell)... well here they are and yes that is my girlfriend and I in the pics... let me know what u guys think? enjoy

Cangrats!

I came from a GSR also (haven't sold it yet). I'm sure you will love your IS.

Congratulations and Welcome to ClubLexus!

You got a great find there; it's difficult finding X-Packages for the 350. I'm happy for you.

Post pics when you get the chance. We can't get enough of our cars.
