Default Look who decided to cozy up next to me...

<center><img src="http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=977404&a=7332019&p=24928038"></center><p>The owner, a college kid like myself, seems to have gotten his pride and joy about 5 days ago. I saw him roll into the parking garage as I was getting out of my car. He has that annoying habit of parking his car butt in first. I had wanted to ask him about the car, but it took him hours to park it straight, so I just left. Haven't run into him yet since then. I'd definitely like to ask him about how he likes it so far.

Default Friend or Foe?

<center><img src="http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=977404&a=7332019&p=24928042"></center><p>He needs to learn some parking skills. Do you notice how I've been forced way over to the right of my favorite spot? I like to keep a safe distance between cars, and his hugging the line has pushed my safety bubble over a lot more.<p><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/JCJiffySig.jpg" border="0">

Default I'm not impressed yet

<center><img src="http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=977404&a=7332019&p=24928040"></center><p>The photos actually make the car look better than it really is. In person, the IS looks like another run-of-the-mill Toyota. The ascending line from front to back makes the car look sort of dopey. Seeing this car first hand has actually lessened my interest in it.<p><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/JCJiffySig.jpg" border="0">
