I think they were throwing things at it... lol

Well, they decided not to put the radiator cap back on so the engine overheated, that plus they only put one qt of oil in there... or at least thats what the other dealer said where it was towed to.

TSX was a fun car

What does luggage have anything to do with rear leg room?

Vik, let me know before you get rid of this one :troutslap

Seriously, the blue looks great on the IS... Looks like you're ready for the winter with those tires too...

Congrats !!

I didn't get a deal thats good enough that depreciation wouldn't hurt if I sold it sooner rather than later. So, it would take a lot for me to sell the IS. I lost very little, if any on the previous cars

All that I know is that the Auto tranny probably uses the latest Toyota WS-ATF, which is lifetime fill. Some say that the WS-ATF was a replacement for the Toyota T-IV ATF, which was used for Aisin Warner units...

Hmm... out the door isn't really a good figure becasue it cant be compared across state lines due to different taxes. But it was roughly 45,300 with tax, title, transfer fees.
