Ha ha, nice! Where'd you find this one...FL? In SC there just isn't that many 350s and nearly none available F/S.

Tell him to sign up and post pics!

Yea it's down in FL it's a little bit of a ride but for the price it's worth it! And he's been creeping on the forum already for a car.

^How did I know...LOL! When I was searching for mine, they were either in south FL, GA, TX, TN, or up North. I got a steal of a deal from a Chevy dealership in NJ...so I fly up there, and drove it back home.

Hope all goes well. Ask about recalls done and if the cam gear rattle has happened in that car.

Yeah, I'm definitely happy with my is350, as mentioned before, check service history for recalls performed and check the waterpump for leakage!

Hello everyone! Car looks and drives great! It does have a couple blemishes, but I don't know many daily drivers that don't. All recalls have been performed not long before I picked up the vehicle and no signs of leaking fluid yet. It does have a 75K warranty that is being transferred.

17" wheels on the IS350? I guess they clear the bigger 350 brake caliper up front?

What's the deal with the cover plate lookin' thing on the lower front lip? Covering previous damage?
