Fun 2 drive, poor technology

Only 3,000 miles in but the navigation and Lexus Enform is terribly unreliable. I wasted money upgrading to this option. Seat cooling and heating has a mind of its own.

I bought this because my 2020 Ford Explorer just wasn’t cutting it. I went with the IS because I wanted something a little smaller and sporty. I love the interior. It feels just like a Lexus. The one disappointing thing is no Apple Car Play. That’s a head scratcher for a 2020 model. The seats are very comfortable, and the site lines are on point. I’ve driven it on a three hour trip already and comfort was not an issue. The car drives well. It has the acceleration I need and handles corners very well. It rides really smoothly. The transmission shifts easily, and there is little noise from outside the cabin. The infortainment system is an issue. Previously noted was lack of Apple Car Play. I also am not a huge fan of the knob in this one instead of the pad that controls everything. Have driven Lexus and Toyota cars in the past I’m very familiar with the display screen and menu options. Overall this is a very good car. It is comfortable, quick, and performs well. It loses points for technology, but everything else is really superb.

There are only a few nagging issues but in the big scheme of things, they may be minor to many. First, the car is very nimble, quick steering, brakes and acceleration. I could get better than 19.5 mpg but I drive it very fast and hard. A little hard to get in, but once in, very comfortable. But a car at this level should have memory seats! Very little storage in the large (on the outside) console. I did not order, or want, the navigation. One of the reasons I bought this model was the fold down rear seats, and most Lexus models do not and I did not want another SUV. It is a fun car that feels very solid and safe and would be close to perfect if these few areas were corrected.

Interior quality was excellent. Love the f sport package and recommend. Wish I had got the memory seats though since my spouse sometimes drives the car as well. Gas mileage not as good as my 328i but hope I will save on repair bills as the reliability should be better. Ben our salesperson made it one of my best car buying experiences . Over 60,000 miles and nothing but regular repair things such as tires,brakes and oil change. Car rides and performs like new. Would like a little more horsepower and less turbo lag. Interior is still looking good . Got wife the red and black interior and she is still very satisfied with it. Seats are great except on longer trips they can be a little tough on aging backs.

Sleek and sexy and of course reliable. This car makes driving exciting. Need to be careful to not get too crazy while taking tight turns and getting up to speed but it handles MARVELOUSLY. You can't go wrong and we're over the moon for this purchase. The price could've been higher for what we got. 5 stars!

About 6 months ago I purchased a used base 2018 Lexis IS 300 6-cyl. with about 32,000 miles on it. The car was in excellent condition, rattle and squeak free, beautiful dark blue paint, comfortable interior, fast downshift and acceleration upon mashing the accelerator, fairly good handling. Overall I like this car very much and it fulfilled my goal of a sedate car that does not tempt the driver to flog it mercilessly. (My previous car was a 2015 Focus ST which was a ton of fun to drive but I pushed it too much.) My major negative comment about this car is lack of road feel (as mentioned in Edmund's review), and additionally, lack of feedback about g-forces. I cannot bend this car into a turn at high speed because it gives no clue about change in g-force distribution and when to power out of the turn. It simply feels as if the suspension is trying its best to keep the car level. That reduces the fun factor to zero, and also means that the driver could lose control without warning if the limits of the tire's grip is exceeded. Not fun! As of this review the car has nearly 45,000 miles on the odo and still feels tight, comfortable and quiet.

Feel very comfortable and drive safe and effectively as it should be. Especially twisted and curved roads seems more enjoyable than regular roads. Spend more on gas but still worth it.

2022 Lexus IC300 AWD build car but just a tad less interior bang than my previous 2019 RC300 AWD. Handling is good, the ride very smooth and handles these horrendous American roads (bumps, potholes, etc) very well. Overall extremely satisfied and another win for Lexus.

I got the base model on a lease deal after trading in my VW GTI 6 speed and so far I miss my GTI. A few cons I’ve found so far is the stock radio, lack of cup holders in the back, and the waste of money features like auto bright head lights. When are we gonna come far enough in technology to put it all in one touch screen for climate, radio, etc…preferably not big screen sticking up in the middle of the dash?!? For the amount this car cost it can at least come with a decent radio and speaker set up…even Honda is bringing Bose to their new civics. I love the daylight running lights but I don’t like that they have to go off when you make a turn…can’t we design them to stay on and have the signal..??? I feel like this car could be made sharper by redesign of the lights themselves. A good car should have the minimum of leather seats, quality radio sound and comfortable seats. Cant say I’m totally pleased with this car…wheel wells could be designed to look a little more mean and wider set at the back too. Several months later and I still feel the same.

Me gusta su apariencia exterior,su interior tampoco es feo pero en el andar,transmisión y motorización para nada suave ni rápido además de que yo no sé la fama esa que le han dado a Toyota porque la verdad es que no me ha demostrado nada.
