I never mind paying the monthly note on this car. I am currently living in Germany and get to take this car out on the Autobahn. It runs so smooth at speeds that are not legal in the states! I just wish Lexus would have put on longer lasting tires as a standard feature. I love this car!

I've owned my is300 for about one year, and I have to say I continue to be impressed with both the cars' performance ability and its quality. This is a terrific handling car with very good grip and steeribilty thru the tightest of corners;it's powerful and smooth inline 6(same engine as newer Supra) is a joy both for its great performance and every day driving characteristics.

Love its sleeky look, handling and interior of course. Engine needs to be replaced with something better. Wasn't the toyota all about reliability, quality and economy? Well I'm a Honda lover but this car cought my attention right from the begining, basically I love eveything about it except gas mileage. This car has a worst gas mileage in its class and if you compare it to the performance it really shouldnt burn so much. Even Maxima with 3.5 Liter engine uses less gas and gets far better performance and really Maxima seems to be a better bang for your buck.
