Tell us more: We've got an active community, great moderators, tons of user-generated content, and a clean professional style.
Why is your forum the best?: Attention to Details!

We've tweak our install quite a bit. We're using vBadvanced for the homepage and sideblock features, vbLinks for our Directory, Photopost for our Gallery and we've made certain style and permissions choices to "rope off" certain forums as a psuedo-CMS, with articles, comments, tutorials, etc. With Moderators as Editors, it works quite well. I'm a big proponent of the Reputation system and we're really pushing it hard, adjusting the values as we go. The built-in subscriptions feature is great.

Just an update...

We've changed the name of the site to support the new IS models arriving for 2006, the IS250 and IS350. We needed something to encompass all the models, but still be short, memorable and interesting. Presenting:

Cool, huh?
