The paddleshift on is250 can be used when the gearbox is set to sport mode, which pushes the rpm to red. in fully automatic you will only get up to 4-5k rpm before it changes.if you select a gear with the paddleshift, or with the tiptronic stick,it will hold the gear until red, or below sutible speed for the selected gear.hope that answers your questions.
I have a Lexus is 250 as well. You can get it in automatic or manual. The automatic also comes with paddle shifter so you can use it as if it were a manual car (haven't tried it yet). My Lexus IS250 is a 07 version and Lexus is coming out with the is-f! I would've got angry at Lexus but its much more expensive than the 250 so its ok.
The car is still clutchless. With most if not all cars with paddleshifting/tiptronic shifting, there is an option of fully automatic or you can switch to the paddles. Basically, you get to pick when the car shifts without dealing with clutching/timing. Does anyone know if it will automatically shift up anyway if you get to redline?
It doesnt.. but if yu downshift to early, it doesnt let you. also.. if yu upshift to early it sets it back to what its supposed to be. The newer ones apperently show a light thatb shows up then upshifting in prefered.. but it doesnt shift up for yu and redline
I tried out the 328 and it wasn't as comfortable for me. but thats just me.. you may find it different. I looked at three dozen different models and styles before settling on the Lexus.
nice

You have to switch the shifter to manual mode ,then use the paddle shifters on the steering wheel to up shift and down shift
