Default Griiix's 2012 IS250 Fsport :)

Hi CL

finally here to make a intro thread about myself

This is Cecilia.
The first car I've ever owned and I do miss her each and everyday! *I still dream about me cruising the streets sometimes. Seriously*
this is what she looked like when i got her, minus the enkei rims

and as the years progressed, this is what she finally turned out to be before i had her de-modded and passed on to another owner, who which i thought will take good care of it but instead he decided to flip the car :rukidding:
Last time i saw her was on a CL ad in surrey.. I hope she is not destroyed by the ricetarts out in the cruel cruel world :alone:





But when a door closes, another will *eventually* open. no kidding...

This is my dad's Lexus which I was able to mooch off while I was under going some hardcore chinese rice farm money saving plan *cough 1.5yrs*; I call it the Tank


reason why its a tank... Well, if you've sat in a Celica compare to the ES350 you should know why..



To the main reason why I'm starting this thread is because I wish I've done so for my celica, which of course I didn't.
She will be my new baby now, and as for my GF.. Well


Here she is, from the day of pick up







hopefully I can keep a good journal for her :woot2:

That was a sweet Celica. I had a 1989 ST161 as my first car - red with racing stripes. Good looking IS though, looking forward to see its progress!

Nice looking Celica, sorry to hear that the new owner of the vehicle did not take care or show it the amount of love it deserved.

It is true, once a door closes, another one will open. Congrats on new 2012 F-Sport. From pictures of your previous ride, I can tell that the IS is in for a nice ride.

Congrats again and welcome to CL.

Welcome to CL!

Yes, Chinese farm money. Something I got too!!

Maybe we can meet up since I got USB of the same car, but in 11. Very few F-Sports around the area, now we got +1

I also notice that was you at Open Road Richmond Lexus!

My location on the left of the screen, gives the clue... yes pretty much Richmond.

When did you see the USB F-Sport at Lansdowne? If it was on the weekend, chances are it was actually me since was parked near #9 restaurant.

Do you have the pics to show?
