Talking Thank you CL!

So after four awesome years with my IS250, I decided to upgrade to the beast pictured below. I just wanted to take a few minutes to thank all the members of this amazing community who helped me from the early research stages, to the purchase to doing my own mods for the first time. Despite the fact that I haven't been very active lately, I've greatly enjoyed my time on this site. Stay safe everyone.

-Brad

Looks good for a pre-owned Benz. Enjoy the gnarly sound of a V8

Ha it sucks but I knew that going in. Of course it's such a thrill to drive that I have to remind myself to take it easy with my right foot. She gets 19 Highway on a good day.
