i traded my is 250 to mcgrath lexus of chicago, got a great trade in value and i kept my 2nd fly audio unit with primo 9, kept my lexani rims and took out the entire souynd system and reinstalled the oem navi, left the F-sport exhaust and lowering springs. they gave me 24,000 for my is and transfered my extended warranty to the LS, saved a ton on sales taxes and got a lower finance rate (was 2.65 down to 1.99). my LS has 66,000 miles and warranteed till 125,000 miles bumper to bumper. i got the fully loaded silver with black interrior LS with mark levinson. im gonna add the ivic android adaptor next! pics comming later.
i will post in the classifieds the stuff i took off the IS and see if any of you local or non locxal members want to get a great deal on a few things.

sorry i took so long! i am soo busy lately installing remote start units in my shop. but anyway the IS i traded in had around 40,000 miles they gave me 24,000 for it as a trade in on the LS 460. the LS 460 was 35,500 but i got it for 35,000 with free tire sensor programming in the future.
before i traded in the IS i boned it of the 20" rims and the custom audio system it had, even the fly audio unit.
after selling off the parts i took out i made an extra 3k selling them. so that money went to a new set of lexani cvx-44 rims with falken tires

Shouldn't you be able to upgrade to the 2013 bumper/ grill on your LS I think it's the same chassis/ body style. I doubt you have to even change the headlights. I may be wrong but let me know

nice! i cant believe that McGrath took out the viper alarm and remote start w/smartstart
then they called me to put it back in! i have the sideskirts for your IS, they are already painted and ready to be installed.
your IS had interrior lighting and under the car lighting as well, and they removed it as wee, not to mention that the led side miirors are disconnected as well.
all of that for a shade that they couldnt figure out why it would not go up.
anyway enjoy the IS, i did..
