I went to purchase this car in 2005 with all options availble knowing I'd keep the car years based on reliability. I have been surprised with excessive 'service' charges $80 to $200 for regular oil change visits. I've already replaced my tires at 17k mi which is extremely soon and my brakes and rotors at 29k. It's a great looking vehicle and reliable on the snow, however, replacing these main ticket items and 3 car recalls in 2 years so incredibly soon in the car's life is ridiculous to say the least.
A FEW CONCERNS

I purchased my car used,.w/approx 39,000 miles on it. @ 42,000 problems started. The battery is NEW but one time the door would not open. Once I got it open w/the key, it wouldn't start. Had to get a jump, Lexus dealer could not find problem. a Few times, I've had to push the start button several times to get it started. I'm going to replace the battery anyway. Brakes sound like an old wooden ship. Pads and whatever have been replaced. Door hesitates to open at times. acceleration poor. My confidence in this car is shrinking.

I compared the IS 250 to Acura TL and the Infiniti G35 and the IS 250 won hands down. I get compliments on the look all the time. The car stands out like No other it draws a lot of looks and attention I love it! This is the first car I have owned that makes me appreciate and enjoy driving our California freeways. The other two choices of cars came close; but the IS 250, was a no brainer! Thank you LEXUS
Awesome Car!

This car epitomizes the ultimate driving sedan. Sporty, yet luxurious, who can deny driving the new Lexus IS 250? I just got this car on Saturday and I am completely in love with it. I test drove the BMW 325i, Acura TSX, Audi A4, and the Infiniti G35. Out of the four, this one stood out the most. Though it is lacking horsepower, it's elegant design and sporty package made me choose this vehicle. This car is awesome and amazing on the highway! Plus, there are so many safety features in this vehicle, so you can't go wrong.

After looking at several cars I have always wanted (G35 Coupe, TSX, TL, 325i) I decided on the IS250 AWD. To me, it has the eye-catching exterior/ interior design, luxury/sport combination, and "cool" features I was looking for in my first "luxury" car. Anyway, I got the NAV and Lux packages - figured I should go all the way, lol. I LOVE them both... very cool/nice features. Will be nice to have AWD next fall/winter in Minnesota.
