great car
This is a good car, although a bit underpowered compare to other competitions ( Acura TL/Infiniti G35 ) the design of the interior/exterior is high quality, handles great, very smooth and quiet. Back seat is a bit small but i have no problem fitting 2 regular adults in the back. Overall excellent car for daily commute, very comfortable and smooth ride.
Overall Happy Customer
I love the IS250 Sport! It has a great look, sporty yet comfortable. Lots a cool features and fun to drive. It's an overall excellent car in its class.

Yes and No
Well, at first it was all YES. The car design is awesome, very sporty. The interior is excellent, love the leather. After having this for exactly a year now, I am looking for another vehicle. Yes the car is nice and No it's not a practical car. I was used to the VW Jetta TDI, I miss the 45+ mpg. Great car, I just need something that fits me.
More Than I Expected
Family member already has an ES, so Lexus was on the list. But never expected to get so much for so little. Matador Red Mica with Beige interior (upgraded with perforated leather, heat/cool seats/woodgrain finish) stands out in a crowd. Car has a strong mix of sensual looks combined with solid performance and unmistakable luxury inside and out. A solid performer for a daily driver and certainly worth the money. Better looking than BMW, better performance than Mercedes, hands down winner over Acura. Looked at every other car but this one. Have not regretted this decision one bit.
Love it!!
My first Lexus was the 2000 RX 300 AWD SUV, my 2nd was the one I traded for this IS, it was a 2006 RX 330. It was a lengthy decision process for me to figure out if I was ready to leave my love of SUVs. I made the right decision! I love this car! I'm saving a load of money due to it's great gas mileage! This car is the most fun to drive out of every single car I've ever driven.
