So today I traded the 2015 Lexus IS 350 AWD for a 2016 Lexus NX 200t F-Sport 3. The IS was super fun and I really enjoyed driving it, I never had a sporty car before and the power is definitely addictive however in my current stage of life, a SUV is just more useful. I also traded the car in because they frankly gave me a pretty damn good deal and after driving the IS 15k km (lots of to and from the cottage I guess) I’m not losing much.
The Lexus NX is exactly the same as my previous model except this is a 2016 vs 2017 previously. It only has 77k km on it though so it’s pretty low mileage and that’s why I bought it. Unfortunately my garage is absolutely full of crap right now and it’s parked on the driveway with Maggie’s CT 200h in front pretty close to the bumper and to make myself feel better I ordered a boot from Amazon. I don’t know if this thing actually works well but it certainly makes me feel better. Looking at it now I think I’m going to put it on a different wheel, if they drive forward the arm will break off so I’ll do that after blogging.
Anyway yeah back to a SUV for me, I’m going to miss the IS, maybe I’ll get another in the future…
