Atleast add your picture to show the freshness.

No mod plans as of yet ... you JUST never know! If anything, I will wait a while either way. She is perfect in my eyes. Just hit 700 miles on the odometer so its early ;0)

Congratulations, man! It's nice to hear someone actually has a 2011 IS350 F-Sport.

I've been having trouble finding one around where I live. They only have IS350 AWD and IS250 F-Sport. One dealership wants a refundable deposit and the other one says MSRP plus shipping.

Did you get a reasonable deal on it? Just wondering how much they wanted for it.

Hope to see more pictures especially if you plan to lower it.

In our climate, the AWD versions of vehicles are preferred (if available in AWD) for the IS in general which is why we do not see them in the dealerhsip. Most likely cannot get discount because it has to be brought in or special built. A way around it is to look out of state dealerships where IS in AWD is not a common which would be a special build for them - then you would have a chance of finding what you want and get a discount. May have to pay for a airplane ticket and drive it back thou!

As a matter of fact, I saw an IS350 AWD in the show room a few days ago at Lexus of Bellevue right beside the front receptionist.

Yeah, I saw the same red IS350 AWD at LoB. Bummer they had two IS250 F-Sports RWD at LoB but not even a IS350 F-Sport RWD. Oh well, I'll have to look at one more dealership before I try out-of-state.

I guess NY has good weather then compared to us!
