I don't want to say the same things that already have been said about this vehicle but WOW! This is an incredible car. I lament not having found one with all of the bells and whistles, but mine came very nicely equipped. Besides the standard stuff: rain sensing wipers: works great Navigation System: Incredible High Intensity Headlights: Amazing, it's like a wide beam of light from left to right with great intensity. Electric rear shade: very nice touch Ventilated seats: you can heat or cool your seat! electric memory seats in front: cool The rear backup camera is so cool and really show "everything" as you back up. The AWD grips like a tiger in snow and inclement weather.

I purchased an is250 in October and have driven it for 1,700 miles. The only problems I have encountered with the car are the following: The keyless ignition button makes a curious whirring sound when activated and when the driver's side door is opened after shut down. The dealer says this is normal operation. The engine compartment smells like something is burning when sitting in traffic for prolonged periods. The engine is covered with plastic panels. The dealer reports that the smell is normal and that there are no oil leaks. The car handles like a sports car and gets great gas mileage and is comfortable and relatively inexpensive. Hopefully it will also be reliable.

Bought new, always serviced at original Lexus dealership, babied this car. Had to replace all valve springs and gaskets at 25k mi and then replace all valves and gaskets at 40k mi. They tell me this has been a problem with a "handfull" of these cars, but I suspect a handful means at least several hundred. My car has been in no accidents, perfectly maintained, garage kept, driven daily. They say it is because the fuel injector sprays the valves from behind instead of from above, part of their outstanding design. No excuse for these major engine problems...period. Very disappointed. Won't buy another Lexus...EVER! Never owned any new car with such major problems at low miles.

When you look at the vehicle it feels like a Luxury Sports Car. The interior feels like you are in a cockpit. It feel smooth and handle great at high speeds around curves, keyless entry is great, would recomend to anybody.
