OK, so I wasn't going to say anything, but I missed In-n-Out on my last trip to Cali and now I have that unmentionable In-n-Out urge....it's the only thing I truly miss in CA.

I have a 250 as well. The first day I got it I drove it over to a buddy's place - he didn't know I got a new car, he came out and the first thing he said was, 'NICE! You got an Acura!?"
... I almost slapped him.

Sooooo today when I went to get McDonald's around 1230am, the guy working there said to me, "Woah is that a Lexus?? You fixed it up really nice, it looks like a Honda." Now I stayed polite and said thanks, but deep down I was pretty pissed he compared my car to a Honda... -_- Just ranting, but oh well hahaa, you guys ever have an experience like this???
Had a funny experience with a tricked out Honda a couple of weeks back.
I'm cruising around 72-75 there is an empty lane on my right and the far right lane is merging into the empty lane. there is a car in the far right pacing me.
Out of nowhere a Honda comes flying between us just barely clearing us as the lane disappeared. My est is he had to be doing close to 100. He then cuts in close to my right fender and takes off.
The woman next to me is picking her jaw up off the floor and I'm checking my pants for stains and muttering to myself where's a cop when you need one.
1/2 mile down the road a State cop has him pulled over. I got on my cell called 911. Told them one of their guys just pulled the Honda over (turns out it had not yet been called in) and the guy was dangerous - describing what happened. The cop called me back and told me the State had just given him a nice present.
Finished the trip with a nice smile on my face.

That mcdonald dude is way smarter then my dude. I came across a guy that work at yoshinoya and he just straight out say wow, your car is clean! You're running a B18 motor huh? I answered I have a H22 and he said what's that? I replied a Honda prelude motor. He asked what's a Honda prelude? After that, I just told him nvm. But, if someone mess up a Lexus for a Honda I would regulate..lol
I need Nawwwwwz , and i need it by tonight.....

but who says that your car has to be FAST to be luxurious?
comparing honda civic to IS250 is just not reasonable
hondas are little fast for sure, and I've seen many heavily modded Honda Civics being faster than M3,M5,M6 IS250/350 etc....but you know in the end
Honda is just HONDA
coming in here and insulting IS250 is not a way to go
most people don't buy 250 to SPEED in case you don't know
but I can assure you that I "pick up" more girls and get GET way compliment with my 250 than Honda CIVIC
and if Lexus is not that SPECIAL...then I wonder how special a HONDA CAN BE??

hmm... this thread went from 'looks' to 'speed' now... *yawn* i'll take a is250 over a civic anyday of the week, the civic could even have a veyron drivetrain stuffed in it i wouldn't care, it still wont look as nice as a 2IS... speed isn't everything you know, unless your 16 then i guess it is...
