Sold my 2008 Lexus IS300 today...
Well after three years of living in Dubai, and four years overseas, I'm finally moving back to New York! Unfortunately, I had to sell my IS. It was very sad to see her go, but I am looking forward to coming back to the states and taking the cover off my 99 TL! Weird how I'm going from a 2008 to a 1999 and still looking forward to it .
Below are some pics of the "old" and "new" car. I can't wait to get back to my TL. Engine mounts and timing belt are the first on my list of maintenance items. The car has 95k miles on it (3k miles over the last four years from when I came back for vacation). It's never been to an automated car wash in over 11 years!

Your IS looked great - that F-Sport package is nice! Didn't know that there were IS300s overseas. All I ever see are IS350s and IS250s.
Your 2G TL is gorgeous and well-preserved. How do the two cars compare in power?

In terms of power, the IS is quicker in stop and go traffic, but the TL really pulls at high speeds compared to the IS. The transmission is most likely the reason.
I was trading interest rate options specifically focused on AED and SAR, with a little bit of USD trading. I'm going to move back to the US and focus mainly on USD now.
It was my first car and my pride and joy. I took really good car of it and it somehow became a big hobby of mine. I can't wait to drive it again.
Haha. I didn't know how long I was going to be here so didnt want to go all out on a car like most people do. My colleague drives a F430 and the other a 911 turbo. I got made fun of for driving the IS which was their version of a civic, but hey, I loved it!
