I don't know about the sickest IS350 ever, but it's definitely nice and clean.

sickest ever? well it was my car, modded to my taste so I'm a bit biased, lol
it was just time. too many issues, both mechanical (all covered under warranty ) and due to my mods / driving so low and 20's. Just not pratical for my 100 mile round trip commute.
moved on to a Dodge Charger SRT8 - 425hp & 420 tq makes things a little easier
it was fun CL - but goodbye

Yea, an SRT8 sounds more practical for a 100 mile commute. LOL

Rofl worse will be the milk-like depreciation but at least performance mods are easy to come by

Ok, let me make sure I read this right. You traded your Lexus IS for a Dodge Charger? And part of your reasoning was mechanical reliability and driving 100 mile commute? WOW.

I must be missing something here.
You got rid of your IS350 for a Charger SRT8 because you wanted a better commuter car?
0_0
Charger SRT8 gets like 18mpg and its reliability ratings suck! lol
Well whatever it is, enjoy your new ride!
