Used 2009 Lexus IS 250 Consumer Reviews
Bang for the buck
The overall design is a major style improvement from the previous model; now it looks more like a luxury vehicle. I think it's a great car for the money spent. People mistake this car as a sports vehicle; it's not. Consider it more of a luxury commuter. The car has lackluster performance but it is sacrificed for fuel economy. I have no regrets.
2008 IS 250 AWD (6A)
Excellent car. Really hugs the road, quick acceleration (not as peppy as the 350, but enough for a 36 year old). I was in the market for a "Certified Pre-Owned" 2006 or 2007, and ended up getting a new one for a few thousand more. Tells me they keep their resale value moreso than others I compared it to.

Best Car Ever
I shopped and test drove all the entry level luxury models in this category, G35, C280, 3 Series. I previously owned the Lexus SC 300 and Infinti G35 coupe, but this IS 250 is best car ever. Drive it and you wont sleep until you own one. Such a nice balance between sport styling and true lexus comfort.
2008 IS 250
I love everything about this car. The base model is loaded and I only upgraded the wheels, headlights and added a spoiler. I purchased the Matador Red and it's just sexy. I look forward to my drive to work now!
Completely Satisfied
I test drove this car expecting to not be impressed and I was completely wrong. It looks great, feels great, is very luxurious, and has a lot more pick- up speed than the 250 suggests. I couldn't believe what the base model came with. The comperable BMW didn't even have leather and you had to pay a significant amount more for basic features.
