6000 posts! I can't believe you have time to do anything to your car. Yes the IS looks better than the GS/LS... But better than an F? Opinions differ I guess. Also I don't count show cars in the budget limit. Also I wasn't talking about looks as much as performance and Suspension. OF course I like the IS looks better than the BMW 3 & 5 series; CTS-V; C-Class; G35 (4dr)...

OG. is right. 2002 good catch. Yes I am old school I suppose but how many have put over 40k into after market parts in their last 2 cars

Worst aftermaket decision (direct port NOS) or the Super Charger.
Reason: you have to change the combustion ratio which is not made for this and it WILL destroy your pistons and rings and probably tranny.

Best: 19" OZ Superleggera III rims. very light and great ride. Five Axis S5 may be up there but I just got them, we will see.

Hey Roenick, welcome back and congrats on the 2IS!

Your old GS shows up in the classifieds every now and then (being sold by other owners).
