Selling the AWD IS350 :(
Well fellas, it's been quite the run. It's funny how kids change your whole outlook on life When I first purchased the car, I thought I could for sure get away with the space in the backseat...afterall the carseat did fit during the test drive. Then your kid turns 3 and continues to grow at an alarming pace. Then along comes another child, and one day it hit me. I made a compromise to have a sporty quick car but in essence gave up the comfort/space and safety of my children. Sure I opted for the AWD version to get me through the winters, but having both kids cramed in the backseat and being quite a bit lower than other cars on the road was getting me worried.
I anticipate before the end of the week that my car will be sold. I have a couple of buyers and if all else fails, the dealership has given me an attractive offer on a trade in which I will not be upside down. If you are all wondering what I am getting into next, well it will blow your mind!
I'm looking at getting a Toyota Tundra Crew Max...yeah I'm trading my Lexus in for a truck haha! Never thought I would see the day. But this way, we are higher up, tons of space for 2 carseats, never having to angle over speed bumps and parking lots and best of all tons of clearance for the harsh winters. As well, I'm sure all you home owners can appreciate the usefullness of having a truck
Thanks for hearing me out guys, and if I do end up trading it in, I will have a few items up for sale. Mainly the wheels, Tanabe exhaust, OEM spoiler and Carbon fiber roof spoiler. This is how my car sits now...obviously, I will still be around since this is such a wonderful community.

Haha, I thought about getting an SUV...but my wife has a Highlander and we didn't want to have two SUV's in the garage. And the trucks are just so handy! My brother in law definitely is happy...I wont have to call him every other weekend to help me bring home large items from Home Depot

He lives in Alberta, Canada. Looking at the pictures, and the number plate on the house, I am assuming Edmonton. Shipping to WI will be a pain for both of you.

clean looking ride, it'll be sad to see it go. but GL with the truck, hope it doesnt kill your wallet at the pump though.
Hey life is full of different stages. You're now in new beautiful one with family. One day, your sporty itch will come back. Until then, Enjoy the Tundra
Wow. I remember you being one of the first people here to get the AWD IS350 and it looks pretty good! Glad to hear you found something else that you liked.
