Looks good! The interior looks a little worn though (bottom of the steering wheel especially). It only has 12k??

What's up from NOVA!!!
Brand new to me 15' 350 F Sport AWD
I am in love. I've owned more than a few japanese sport compacts over 17, or so, odd years and have sorely missed the quality Toyota brings to a dedicated sporting platform. Such an attractive vehicle and oooozzes build quality head/toe.
Have a nice and tasteful upgrade plan and look forward to making some connections on here.

2018 IS 300 F Sport
Hello everybody. Just picked up my brand new 2018 IS 300 F Sport in Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0 (such a long paint color name). I own a 2000 Toyota Celica GT and a 2011 Infiniti G37S as well. I wanted something brand new and better gas mileage and Lexus had always appealed to me (I only ever buy Japanese). I’ve owned a 2006 Mazda MX-5 Miata before as well and that car was pretty fun. I am looking forward to getting tips and tricks from everyone. As of right now, my immediate plans are to add the OEM rear deck spoiler (the Japanese one is so much better, but way too expensive) and change out the interior lights to white LEDs as well as the front and rear turn signals to LED. After that I’ll probably lower the car (seems like RSR is the popular choice) as well as adding the AEM “CAI”.

My first luxury car!!!
Hi All,
I just bought my first Lexus 2015 IS 350 F Sport, Atomic Silver exterior, black interior, used with about 27,000 miles on it. It's my first luxury car, although my previous car was a luxurious speed demon/neck breaker known as a maroon 2005 Ford Taurus with about 150k miles on it . This forum has been incredible for me along the way and has helped guide a lot of decisions while I was in the process of buying, so thank you for existing! I decided to have some tinting done on it and viewing one of the threads on here to see different tint percentage pictures was huge in helping my decision to go with 35% tint and Air 90 on the windshield(unfortunately they wouldn't do Air 80 due to Texas law), got it all done with Llumar film for $350 and love it!
I'm still working my way through the various threads on here, but am excited to get everything else setup and configured on the car and get used to the concept of acceleration and comfort I didn't know existed!

Dang that sucks. I like it and think it definitely cut down on some heat coming through, finished out look of the car I think. I did find this about tint laws in Germany, sounds like you might be able to do the back windows, but not sure how it would look http://www.eur.army.mil/news/2009/20...ifications.pdf

New to Me IS250 F Sport
snatched up an 2015 IS250 F Sport, L Certified.
Platinum Silver Metallic w/ Rioja Red interior. Thus far quite enjoying it. Gas mileage is vastly better than my Jeep, lol. Luxury is much better too.
I’ll be lurking the forums and trying to meet up with people on the Chicagoland area. Here’s a photo.

Just picked up my CPO 2015 IS350 F-Sport.
Obsidian Black/Roja Red
Anxious to get around to doing paint correction, clear bra front end, then GYEON coat the whole thing.
Later plans include 20mm spacers on the stock wheels with a 1-1.5" drop and ARK exhaust. Hoping that will hold me over for a while until I find some wheels I really like, possibly the NIA kit as well.
Due to my extensive use of the search function, I'm struggling to post enough to get off the "probationary period" to make sure I'm not a bot. lol.
