Sorry guys. I've been on the forum for a little while and haven't introduced myself :o

I have only owned my IS200 for a couple of months. It's a SE model in Blue, no idea what one, and is pretty stock save for some slight tweaks. Shame the CD has packed up!! (Err3)
Previous cars include a DC2 Intregra, Subaru Impreza (long before every ****** had one), several Nissan Skylines, an M3 and a few other interesting cars including purpose built track machines.

I've been involved with trackdays since the late 90's, and also competed in sprints, a fair few events at Santa Pod and a couple of drift events.
Sorry for the wordy and belated intro. I'll try to remember my manners from now on

Hey let me officially introduce my self and my ride.
Posted a couple of times on the forums but never really introduced my self so here goes.
My name is Dale and i drive a 2000 IS200 auto. Recently I was lucky enough to get my hands on a charger so now I am
boosted and enjoying it.
The mods so far- Trd body kit, Trd grill, Trd swaybars, blitz nur spec exhaust, Tte Compressor, eibach sportline springs,
Front cross drilled & slotted rotors and a couple other cosmetic mods to add. So here are a few pics before i got the charger. Will post recent ones when i get some time.

A few months ago Lexus lent me an IS 250 F-Sport for a week and the day before I was supposed to bring it back I thought I'd take a few pictures of it. Unfortunately I could only take one exterior picture before it started snowing A LOT.

Two hours later it looked like this

As the car had summer tires it became totally undriveable. I had to leave it at work for a few days until the first snow had melted.
