Hope you trade in the one on the left.. The black F150 is gorgeous. See it here on the forums sometimes and love it. Nice truck!

Just traded a '07 Porsche Cayman for a '13 Camaro ZL1 convertible over the weekend. In July, my wife traded her '08 Explorer Limited for a '13 Edge Limited. In November, I traded a '08 F150 King Ranch for a '13 F150 Limited. Now that we have all new vehicles in the stable, the trades are done for a little while. lol

Thanks. Yeah we would be trading the biege one. Now it sits on the stock 20s. That truck went through like 5 different sets of wheels. Bahah.
We were going to get that Lexus but my dad wants a Camaro so we are on the hunt for the best deal. We arent in a hurry. Camaro SS ^.^

Forget the IS25 and the 325 and look at a 335i or 335is instead. There's no sense looking for a "nice car" then settling for a boring, anemic, 185hp base-model ride. Either save up some more cash for the 335, or look at a nicely appointed new V6 Mustang. If you gotta drive a fun little RWD Toyota go with the new Scion FRS/Subaru BRZ. That thing is a blast to drive.

The Lexus looks like it has had some body work/paint, the front fender is a different color than the doors. You never know what you're getting when you buy used.

If you don't need back seats, take a look at the Porsche Cayman. You can find pretty good deals on used ones. You even get two trunks, since it's a mid-engine car. And the thing is balance so well it feels like it's on rails when going through corners. It doesn't have a crap load of power, but because of it's light weight, balance, and handling, it doesn't need a ton of power to be a whole lot of fun. The way the power is delivered makes it feel more powerful than it is. I chose the Cayman over a 911 when I was shopping before, because it felt more like a sports car to me.

I looked at a couple Cayman's before I went the truck route. Drives like a dream, and not unattainable on a budget. Phenomenal car; not a lot of people carrying space, but a blast to drive nonetheless.
