I then drove across the river and had a deal worked out on a 2008 IS350 special order but never did feel right about having been forced to buy either a previously allocated car or have to wait four months for a car I actually wanted to arrive from Japan so I looked around on the web for options. Luckily, I found a 12,000 mile Matador Red Mica with Cashmere GS430 at Lexus of Dayton’s Certified (they say it is the only stand-alone pre-owned location in the country) pre-owned store. I drove the 30 minutes to see the car and their staff treated me extremely well from minute one. The GS was in perfect shape, looked like new, drove like new, had every option but radar cruise but still only cost similar money to the IS350 is was looking to buy, so I bought it. And am I ever glad I did move up to the GS, it is so much more car than the IS.

Yeah, the new Performance building will have a fitness facility, a day care center, etc. for their customers but I still won’t be rushing down to buy my next Lexus from them until they change their attitude toward their customers.

But I have to drool everytime I see pics of everyone's lower rides.
