Hi Everyone,

I just picked up a 2017 IS300 AWD (base model) in White Pearl with Flax interior. It came with the Navigation/Premium package. I would've gotten the IS350 F Sport but it wasn't available at the time and I didnt want to wait for it. Anyway, the 300 is a great car and I love it so far. I also just installed the F Sport air intake (PTR03-53141) made for the 2014 IS250/350.

Previous rides:
96 Turbo Civic (stolen)
03 Acura RSX (totaled)
08 CRV (retired)

I think that's the first one I've seen with body side mouldings. Probably a good idea in hindsight.
You can't trust those people parking in Brampton at all!!

Default Just got a new Daily 😄

My first Lexus ever; it's a 2014 IS250 AWD. Black exterior with black interior. I traded in my 2013 5.0 for this to use as a better daily because the Mustang was too rough for my 45 mile commute with my suspension mods, and driving a manual daily got old after 5 years. New #trackdaybro wing 😄😄
. Love the car so far, amazing daily!

Fresh detail
It's sooo comfortable
Of course, there's also the track beast
Who needs a V8 when you've got an FI Honda, right?

Hi All,

Signed for my new Black on Black 2017 IS350 AWD F - Sport Series 3 last week!!! Slated to arrive around July 21st. I'll post more pics once I take possession.

First Lexus & first brand new car. Can't wait!



Same as this one except this is a Series 2. Only difference with Series 3 is the rear sun shade and upgraded Mark Levinson sound system.

I've been a long time Mercedes Benz guy and just wanted some change. I had to sell my C55 AMG to acquire my very first Lexus -- an Obsidian IS 350 AWD. No regrets so far! I also promised myself not to get another black car since it's a PIA to maintain, but the Obsidian/Rioja Red combo is just darn too sexy too resist.

Here she is, fresh from the dealership. I can't wait to give her a full detail.

So Nice!! Is that a '16? The front trim isn't backed out. Detailing doesn't look necessary for a little while. (Unless you want to protect that beauty).
​​​​​​​Thanks for sharing.

Smile New Lexus Owner !!


Hey Guys, new owner of a 2017 IS350 AWD F-Sport. Nebular grey with black interior! AWD was a must as I live in New-Brunswick, Canada and lot of snow here!! Got the car for 2 weeks now/ 500km on the vehicle. I lease for 4 years but I have a nice buy back on it after the 4 years so If I like the car, I might buy it.

Nothing to say on the car yet except that I already have rock chip on the car even If I did not went on the highway yet but I have an appointment next week for a 3M... Car sound very nice over 4000rpm but I would love more sound from the exhaust but oh well !! And not used to have only 2 cup holder as storage space in the vehicle.

But other than that, great car so far !!
