Daily Dilemma

Hopefully, I shall be graduating in about 11 weeks. My beloved 2003 Ford Police Interceptor is getting near its last legs. Transmission needs looking at. Might get it fixed, might not bother. But I'll need a new larger car. My Z is pretty much my daily as I hardly want to drive anything else. However, if I upgrade my daily, I'll at least be able to haul stuff that matters. Like boxes of wheels & tires hehe

So the two cars I'm thinking both would need minor modifications to make me satisfied with them. The first car I'm thinking of is the rare Lexus IS300 Sportcross. Even more rare as I wont settle for less than a black one. One was on Carmax about half a year ago for 15k, with 47k miles on the clock. Wish I could have got it. Haven't seen a good black one since. I'd want to get springs, wheels & tires for this. With the halo headlights.




And the other car I was thinking of is the 1997-2004 Lexus GS300. About as big as the cop car, a more VIP style car. I'd want to do exactly what the car below has. Work Meisters and lower it. But it's more expensive to mod, and I'm a bit sick of how unflexible cars with trunks/boots are. I'd much rather open up the IS300's hatch and fold down the rear seats. Can easily get sideskirts or a camera rig in there. I dig the 4door VIP style and think it would be a great car for cruising around in. But 90% of these things have tan leather interiors and once again, that trunk... 



Food for thought anyway, but I think it's obvious which way I'm leaning.
