RastaRacer,

I've seen a few Starfire Pearl F-Sports being sold at the dealership.

I hadn't had a wreck in 12 years and this happens...anyways I'm excited to see the mods also bc I'm trying to see how everything looks on the white IS..post'em when you can. PS i did get the F Sport grille out of the wreck..

Wow, I feel so welcomed posting here. You are all awesome with your positive posts.
+1 to all and +2 to the few USC grads haha.
I wonder is there any UCLA student or grads on this board? I spotted some stock Lexus IS driving around here with "UCLA Alumni" license plate and the ones with "USC Alumni" are usually driving BMW especially coupe version in black. Kind of interesting!

Thank you! I believe you are also the first person to spotted my car in the "spotted in Southern California" thread long ago. I saw it but didn't post anything at that time. I observe that you almost live on ClubLexus 24/7 with many posts everywhere.

Thank you! I think i'm pretty much done with the mods and super happy with it. I want it to keep it balanced with the following goals: improved appearance, daily drive-able , genuine luxury Lexus style, improved functionality, and certainly within budget. Good luck with yours!

Wow congrats ! With that degree, I think you are driving a Lexus LFA on the weekends and IS350 daily.

I think Ultra Sonic Blue (USB) is more rare than the White one in Southern California. At the time I am buying, Longo didn't even have it in stock. Somehow I see majority of Lexus IS are either in Black or White (Non F Sport version) driving around my town. However, I see some brand new IS in USB lately.

The seats is one of the reasons I picked the F Sport package It is sick looking and not cold in the morning like the leather seats. However, F Sport package doesn't give you ventilation feature and it sucks in summer .
