Default I Did It!

Hi Friends,
Now it is time to thank everyone for their advice and help with my posts the last year or so. Tonight I drove home my new Beautiful Obsidian IS250 AWD. I had a very easy and enjoyable buying experience at the dealership and my drive home from the dealership was incredible.
It seems like it will take me a long time to learn how to use everything, but that seems to be half the fun.
I will try to post pictures soon when the weather gets better.

Congratulations. I'm impressed by your due diligence in researching the IS for almost a year. Expect to get a lot of compliments on your new ride. After three months and 2,000 trouble free miles, I like this car more every day. The silky smooth V6, car design and responsive handling sold me on the car.

Did you get the luxury and navigation packages? Real leather with heated and cooled seats are nice features. I love the new leather smell that is still strong.

No navigation, but it has the all weather package. I already love the heated seats and steering wheel. That is the best!

I am having trouble pairing up my garage door opener to the button on my rear view mirror. Also having trouble pairing my phone up to my Bluetooth. The first time I paired my phone it recognized it and worked, but wouldn't transfer my address book. Then, Lexus told me to delete my phone and re-enter it. However, when I re-enter it, it won't recognize it at all. Anyone else have a similar problem?
