Well I sold the IS, Bought a 2002 Porsche Boxster. But here is what I used to have. Check out my Boxster page too.

I was finally able to take pictures of my new car, a 2002 Lexus IS300 5 speed. It is Graphite Grey Pearl, with black Leather/Suede interior .

I bought it back in August, with about 42,000 miles, and I traded my '01 TT Coupe 225. I kinda miss the TT some times, but overall I like the Lexus better. It already had the black chrome emblems and the black chrome taillight housings, both of which I like a lot, and it had the K&N intake (Which I am going to change).

I bought new wheels and tires right away, a set of 18x8 SSR GT2 Forged wheels, with 235/40/18 Dunlop SP Sport 01 tires. The wheels are super light-weight, only 16.8 lbs. a piece! I also replaced the antenna on top with a smaller one--it looks a lot better, but reception is not quite as good.

My next mods will be: a conservative drop, with Eibach Pro-kit Springs (lowers 1") and Tokico Illumina Adjustable Shocks, then an exhaust, I want an L-Tuned, but maybe Borla or something else fairly understated. I want a carbon fiber hood, which I will paint to match the car. I am also going to change the K&N intake (Typhoon, I think) to a K&N FIPK. Possibly a header, and a few other thinkgs here and there.

Now I'm thinking about some coilvers, probably Tein CS or Flex. Haven't decided for sure, but I think that is what I'm going to do.

k&n is the best filter,but if you get a mac cold air intake system you get a awesome setup with a k&n filter
