Sold my 04 about 3 years ago and bought and Lexus IS 250. I love the reliability but miss the 8 every day. I'm thinking about trading it for an 09 R3. Im sure reliability is way better on the 09's, but at least I know how to take care of them now. My 04 ran like a champ when I sold it.

 

We are hopeful you will come back to the fold. Best to you !

 

That must have been quite a change!

How does the IS250 ride, in your opinion? An R3's seats and suspension make it a LOT more punishing than an upscale executive sedan, so I'd imagine that'd be the one area where you might miss the IS. Other than that...

 

The IS drives smooth like butter but its not soft.
It would be a change I'm sure...
