Just saw this intro post here, so here goes...
I'm Phil (Otakusan)
Just picked up my 2016 IS350 AWD F-Sport here in Alberta Canada; Ultra White exterior with red interior. It's got the (Canadian) F-Sport Series 2 package, which pretty much is fully loaded but just without the futuristic cruse control and per-collusion stuff.
I've owned and auto-crossed my fair share of Honda's since young, anything from Civic, Integra, and Prelude. Eventually moved into a Nissan 240SX and auto-crossed that for a few yrs too. I took a few yrs off the car hobby and drove some more 1.5L civics, and one day just decided to try out the whole Turbo AWD thing. So went and got myself a 2011 STi, had a decent amount of bolt-ons making 280WHP and 315ft/lbs Torque. It was a blast to drive, but unfortunately these cars extremely high maintenance, even if you keep up all the maintenance.. they still break all over the place. And eventually the quality issue starts to bite me in the rear... from a 5 yr old car that has perforation rust, that is not acceptable. With both dealer and Subaru of Canada denying my claim, i've given up and told myself that I want something reliable. So there's the Lexus now
Started a little built post here, but not much happening yet. Look forward to the great community here

New to Lexus
Been a little over a month since I converted to Lexus.
Haven't cared about a car like this since my G35 6MT in 05/06.
I actually bought my 2015 IS 350 F Sport as shown, only 7,500 miles!

IS200T F sport
Hello all, my name is Mark, lease my first Lexus, an IS200T with the Fsport package a month ago. Previous car was a manual E46 with ZHP package.
IS200t is NGP on Red which i liked very much. 10 years ago you could not have told me i would be driving a Lexus. After driving 3 series for over a decade,
it is time to move on. Plus the 3er glory days ended with the E46 in my opinion.German cars just doesn't appeal to me anymore which i find surprising to say.
Here's to hoping this IS200T doesn't disappoint since i plan to buy a GSF or RCF when my lease is up in 3 years.
