man 48k is still a LOT cheaper than even the less equipped is250 over here in Canada...if you would have bought your car here it would have been around 60k WITHOUT taxes ...

Anyways , congrats on the car , really nice purchase heh two thumbs up !

they knocked down EPA mpg ratings on all cars after 06, even tho the 07-08 stickers say 18/25 mpg. I easily get 21.5 mpg 100% city and 28 hwy

...i know. you guys dont know what the bull**** price up here is. I paid 36K, for 06 IS 250, with 8000 KM on it. Came with leather, power seats, moonroof. Thats it, and 17 Inch GS tires.

i paid 36 after RIDICULOUS amounts of haggling. Overall was 40K.

I hate how cars are so cheap in the states. go to hell, the all of you
