Pros: - The car performs perfectly for the US. It easily accelerates to speed (and for passing on the highway) and it handles like a dream when the roads get twisty. - You're going to play with the guage cluster a lot. It's cool and fun. - The seats are probably the most comfortable I've ever had in a luxury sports sedan (owned or ridden in is300, bmw 328xi, audi s4). This vehicle is comfy. - It's a Lexus. It just works. And when I'm done driving it, the resale value of this car will be fantastic. (I sold my old is300 after 10 years for $10k.) - It's got all the luxury I need (heated seats/steering wheel, ventilated seats, nav system, blindspot detection with crosstraffic (saved me twice already), bluetooth, USB port, etc.) - It's really roomy compared to the old IS300 (and they finally made the seats split folding!) Cons: - It does sit low. I'm also a cyclist, so I've added a hitch to the rear which makes it worse! It will get rock chips in the hood. And it will rub on steep driveways. - It's not great on fuel economy. I generally don't "play" with it a lot and I'm getting around 22mpg. - The brakes do produce a lot of dust, so expect to give it a cleaning regularly Go see it in person. Some people hate the styling, but I think it's less gaudy in person. (The photos of the front make it look awful.) I haven't had it in the snow yet, but I expect that the AWD and all season tires will do just fine. Update 4/17/2016.... I've now been through some winter driving in DC with the car. I have the AWD and it felt as solid as my 2005 Infiniti FX35 in the snow. I was able to drive it up to Pennsylvania to go snowboarding 4 or 5 times without issue. That said, I suspect if the snow got deep (over the bumper) that the snow performance could degrade pretty quickly. (The car sits fairly low.)

I got a '15 CPO Fsport AWD Nebula gray - After etensively driving the '14 BMW 328i & 15 Audi Q50 - the overall exterior lines, road performance and overall ride quality of the IS350 outperformed its competitors. Pros: Though it lacks the horsepower at the line of the Q50- it Brakes and handles like a dream at high speed - put it in sport ++ mode and the suspension brakign and handline tighten and you actually feel really safe takign the turns at high speed! The Rioja red F-sport interior includes the race stitching, metallic side panel, F-sport badging, and maybe one the coolest LED instrument gauges out there. At first I hated the front grill, but seriosuly go see one of these in person - it looks mean - the side profile and sightlines in the fsport version are some of the prettiest on the road imho. Have only owned this for 2 weeks - so havent test it for winter conditions but the all seasons shoudl be fine with awd. I have it in sport & ++ mode a lot so my mpg prolly not the best. Cons: The backseat is pretty small unless you have little kids like me, legroom could be cramped with an older family. Make sure and get the protection package put on it, as you will get rock chips on lower sitting front end.

This is my first IS350 F-Sport, and I love it. Fun to drive on both highway and city. Very quiet on the road.

I never thought I'd get to own a car like this. Its fast, intuitive, responsive, and comfortable. It needs a more powerful engine to truly take it to the next level but it seems capable of handling one and 306 HP is enough to have a lot of fun with. I'll probably swap out the engine down the road if I can ever afford it for 460 HP+. Would've liked to have seen an option for something like that with such a well designed car.

We bought a Lexus IS 350 f sport as a second car for a two person retired couple. Salesperson knew we did not drive it regularly and it could sit for week or two at a time. I was surprised to find out after 8 days the car would not start. After discussing the issue with Lexus, they stated this is standard on many Lexus models. The car draws so much electricity when not in use, if the car sits for "8" days will not start. If the car is left at the airport locked, you can not get in the car to even jump it. Lexus's answer: They will provide a plug in solar panel to mount to the car, or a battery plug in!!!!!! Yes, honestly that was the answer.

It sits too low

I love everything about this car except how low it sits. Front end is below the average curb level. Mind did not come with parking sensors and I can't find them anywhere aftermarket. This car should come stock with parking sensors - disappointed.
great car but...

I have this car for a year now. And i like the acceleration, and handling (this is no frs but handles quite nice ) its a lexus so its going to last forever. Ride doesnt beat u up bla bla bla. Now for the cons. Im not going to start on infotainment system cuz i knew how it was and didnt take the car because of the system. Car has lots of road and wind noise. (My ford fusion was much more of a quiet ride for that matter) i thought lexus shud be quiet only some fake induction noise but driving long trips is annoying. Secondly there are no remote starter on a 50k car yes theres yhe lexus enform app which takes forever to start and always crashes my friends grand Cherokee app does commands in 3 seconds while this takes 2 mins atleast. No leg room in back. And no memory seats. Y ur asking most probably they just forgot to ad it to the car. Im very dissapointed! ! Looks like lexus said oh we need to compete with yhe germans so we have a good engine (they also thaught that by the is250...) lets make a weord design and they tested it and it worked now they went to the handling and it was great. Now they went yo their old files and took out some proto type infotainment system and older toyota hvac/radio buttons threw a blind spot moniter package in from the sienna and hew-yaa we got a car! Seriously?! Ur goong to test ur garbage on me??! This is my first and last lexus!

Lexus = greatness. Plain and simple. I used to have a 2011 Lexus Ls460 which was a heck of a car when it came to all the luxurious bells and whistles/V8 engine, just a little more on the “grandpa” side when it came to the the exterior build. Well, that car flooded due to negligence on a construction company…long story. So, I had to find a new car. Knew I wanted to stick with Lexus because I’m obsessed with how they drive, and how well thought out the interior comfort and features are. I ended up finding my current IS 350 Fsport and oh my gosh am I obsessed! So so so fun to drive, definitely a sexy looking car if you get it decked out, speakers are booming, nice little hum to it, and the gas mileage isn’t terrible long distance if you have it on eco mode. I absolutely love how roomy it still feels yet it’s a sports car, and the seats are extremely comfortable. I will forever buy Lexus because they are just so reliable and the resale value will never disappoint. If you are considering a Lexus, just do it! I promise you will not regret it!
