Default New '12 Starfire IS250 F-Sport

Just picked up a 2012 IS250 F-Sport in Starfire Pearl. I am loving the car so far. I have been without a car for about a year after my G37 coupe was totalled. Ive been sharing a Yukon with my girlfriend and its nice to be back in a sportier car again. Even though the power is down from my G I think the ride and handling is better in the IS.

Here are a few pics. Sorry for the crappy pics. Cell phone+darkness=crappy pics





My old G37 R.I.P,

Why not get an IS350 when you're coming from a G37?

Congratulations, that's almost near my dream package. Mine consists of Starfire Pearl IS350 F-Sports Package. At first when I started this forum, I was initially going to get a IS250 but.. everyone complains that it lacks power and that IS350 is the way to go. :P
