We placed a deposit on Friday to hold it and it ended up being exactly what was pictured and I thought was super clean. So, Saturday my wife and I drove her 2008 2IS AWD out to PA from NKY (about 5hr one way) to look at the car.

2015 IS350 AWD F Sport
Ultra White
Red interior
61kmi
Invidia axle-back (I assume it's the Q300 model) Sounds decent. Not too much drone and lets you know something is on the car. (I come from American V8's so a good sounding V6 is hard to find for me lol...I have a cam/exhaust C5 Z06)
Weathertech floor mats
Original 2 key fobs
Original manual
Continental DWS06 tires in great shape.

Owned it for 2 days and already have a "list":
The factory rear door/fender protective film needs to be replaced
Someone did some minor touchup with the complete WRONG color paint...used an eggshell/cream color when against the Ultra White
Claybar/proper touchup/paint correction/ceramic coat
Window tint
Buff windshield from some wiper blade scratches
Oil change plus filter
Cabin filter change
Spark plug change (happy I no longer have to remove the upper intake manifold to replace the plugs)
RR Racing or FIGGS front lower control arm bushings (to keep inner tire wear away)

I'm looking forward to not having the dreaded carbon buildup issues her previous IS250 has...

It was a blur of a day but wasn't too bad of a drive. Weather cooperated for the most part with some pop up rain. Worst part was driving back "alone" in each car.


Journey begins getting gas

Somewhere in PA goofing around

more somewhere in PA. These cars have NO bad angled IMO.

Pit stop in OH

And it's home and first wash done.




Tucked away next to it's garage mate.

Great pics and enjoy your IS!
We have had our IS for 5 years and it is nearly at 80k miles. It has only required brakes and tyres out with regular servicing.

So what happens to the 2IS? Relegated to the driveway?

YUP! Not in love with that but no more room. 190k on it....been a decent car to us. I'll keep it to drive through winter.

Yeah, I think there should be a law, that all houses should have at least a six car garage!

I mean you're not wrong
