Well guys today i traded in my Lexus Is 350 Luxury sport sedan (20,224 miles) for a 2010 Mustang Gt. I Got a great deal on a Kona Blue 4.6 litre V-8 315hp, 325 ft pound of torque. I had my fun with the is 350 during my 3 year tender. What surprised me was the number of issues that i had with the Lexus most of them they fixed but i couldn't get my dealer to fix the start up knock that %75 of these cars have, this was a major concern for me...and I'd even read some posts where some folks got their car fixed only for the problem to show up again 8 months later. However, deep down i was always a muscle car kinda guy having owned a few in my lifetime, and i decided to come back home.. this is my 1st ford ever always owned Mopar's and Chevy's and i must say this mustang is a solid car, with excellent ride and handling abilities. A short throw 5 speed stick and gobs of torque.. Speed wise this car is goes 0-60 in 4.9 like my Lexus but the throaty exhaust and pure thrust of the car makes it feel faster...The dealership i went to today was running a special Sunday sale the give me $24,500 for my car and took 2k of the sticker off the Mustang so we were able to reach a happy medium...i wont have any car payments, thats just how i role these days...lol. I'm looking forward to thundering down the road in my new Mustang...Happy motoring gents, this is great forum and i doubt if i will find 1 as good as this 1 for the Mustang GT but we will see!

Congrats on the new chariot - hang around, you don't have to leave just because you're a Mustang owner now...

I've heard they're pretty easy to mod and are fairly cheap too. So I'm sure you're gonna get hooked on that. I really like the new Mustang, seems like they finally figured out to upgrade the interior too. Good luck with your car.

Btw, I don't know what you mean by the start up knock of 75% of IS's. I don't have it.

congrats on your new car, but now of days you can easily get 2K off the sticker price without much haggle. I also think 24.5K trade in for a 350 with 20K miles is a little low IMO.

Eekk Ford u shoulda got the Camaro now thats bad *** or at least the challanger. To each is own though I do like the changes for the 2010 and I just saw in car and driver that it won the shoot out for new "muscle" cars.

good luck with your new car bro, mustang GTs are nice. well i've never actually driven one but i've rode in one plenty of times and they are great cars.

you'll always be an honorary clublexus member though even if you don't own a lexus anymore

i would say it's not worth to trade in is350 for that car, but as long as you like it.
