Default New Owner, Greetings from Germany to SoCal.

Hello, I am the new guy on the block. My name is Bryan and I am a previous Bimmer guy, my heart is with BMW but the Lexus ISF is a fantastic car and I am proud to be apart of a small niche.

I bought this car from Sterling BMW after I traded in my X6 50i. The fuel consumption from the X6 was far to great in the crazy traffic of LA. I found a beautiful and clean 2009 ISF in MM, the car had 6,900 miles and is in immaculate condition.

Not sure if any of you belong to the BMW forums, but my name is KreativeM5 and KreativeX6. I came from Ramstein, Germany where the Autobahns were heaven for any car fan. You can see my vids on Youtube "KreativeM5"

Anyhow, here is my toy and hope to meet some of you, I am here in San Pedro/Palos Verdes area.

Tschuss,
Bryan B









My German Toy ASR Engineering/RPI M5 (My X6 is on Youtube, cant find pics on Photobucket. But you will be able to see some cool vids of Autobahn speed runs)

Bryan,

Welcome to CL! Just curious, would you be interested in taking your F on an autocross or track?

Hello, I have never experienced autocross but I hear its a lot of fun. I might hit the drag strip once in awhile to get my speed fix, but since I dont have the autobahn, I just want to create a clean and classy ride. Example, not digging all the chrome badging and chrome windiw trim, like the black look better. I have been trying to read a lot of threads on performance parts and seeing what works and what doesnt, but I see the vendors for our car isnt as big as the bimmer forums which make making more power a little bit more tricky.

Congrats on the F! You've got a really sick M5 as well. Some of my gf's relatives live in Palos Verdes. Hope to spot you sometime! Enjoy your new ride!
