I freakin love this car Tony!

I'm really looking forward to warmer weather and better tires.

Those mountain runs you and Alex went on looked awesome!

Right! I’ve always loved cars, but I couldn’t stand driving. I wanted comfort and the ability to get from point A to B quickly. The idea of sitting in a car for hours used to fill me with dread.

Since the 500, my whole perspective on driving has changed. It ain’t nuth’n but a thang to hop in, drive 1.5 hours to the mountains, spend 15 minutes to take pictures of the car, and drive back home.

The IS500 may not be considered a conventional ‘driver’s car’, but I’d argue it scores high enough to be!

My car may have just been crowned Garage Queen. I just made it past 3,000 miles after 7 months of ownership. Guess my Jeep does all the heavy lifting, but it doesn't mean I don't love my IS 500!

I'm at a little over 10k miles after 2 years. My Camry takes the brunt of the commuter miles. I drive a bit over 15000 miles a year avg between the two cars.

You're almost out of the break-in period! Now's not the time to slow down.

^^ Congrats!! I am so happy winter is finally over, well, I know we will likely see more sporadic snow before summer but its finally dry enough that I can now take it out too. I am also finalizing the set up in my garage too! Things are looking up! Finally!
