Thanks for checking out my 2008 Lexus IS350.


I purchased the car brand new in late September 2008. It’s Obsidian Black with a black interior. The IS350 comes with a 3.5 Liter DOHC V6 that produces 306 horsepower and 277 lb-ft. Other amenities and features that came with the car included the Premium Package (heated and ventilated front seats, perforated leather, and wood trim), voice activated navigation system, premium sound, and 18" alloy wheels (with summer tires) to name a few things.


This car offers the perfect blend of luxury and sport. I plan on doing some moderate modding, all while trying to maintain the "Clean" look. Thanks for looking!
