yeah lexus is not BMW, lexus is comfort, high quality, for me quality is everything that I need from my investment to the car, I have BMW and believe me BMW-is the most Rubbish quality car ever made on Planet earth, tons of continious problems , constant brakes, crap suspension, crap electrics and electronics, very cheap interior materials used, cheap plastics everywhere
@yelzhan123 strongly disagree,i have an is220d (europe only engine i think) and its quality cannot compare to the bmw 530i which i also have in my family but i dont drive. my lexus has had lock issues, and a fitting has come loose... the bmw on the other hand has never had one issue.. i do love the lexus though, still a great car as a whole
My ex boss had a ls220d and gave me the key to deliver a few car parts at an other unit in notttingham. Very nice car to drive, knowing it was a lexus I put my metallica cd on straight away. Great sound system. Even though it's a Is220d it was a bit uncomfortable doing long distance driving and that doesn't matter how tall or small you are but still a quite and a very nice car. It does say that it is 177Bhp which is wrong.
they should really have the 250 w/ a 3.0 L I6 and give the 350 a turbo 3 L I6. I feel the 2.5 L V6 is really underpowered at a measly 200 HP. Can any owner of a 250 agree/disagree with me that and give me feedback about the 250's engine
many cars HAVE to be underpowered in order to fill gaps in the marketplace.. for example.. in the Porsche family, the Cayman is purposely slower than a 911 but faster than a boxter..
oh what?? wow thats really good! i drive from sf to la, then la to scottsdale az once a year and i have a 95 camry that i have to fill up at least 3 times before getting there...i know the drive from la to scottsdale is a good 6-7 hours depending on how fast you're going, but wow, one tank!
im going to be on the market for a new car very soon, and the is350 is definitely on my list. :)
A fully loaded IS250 is only 40K OTD... Where the fuck did you get 75K from? Besides IS250 is slow, don't bother buying it. Buy the IS350, the IS250 is slower than the TSX, RSX-S, and Civic SI and others. And they are cheaper also.
Navigation system w/ voice recognition, DVD entertainment system, night vision, remote engine start, power sunroof, 10-disc CD changer, heated front and rear seats, rearview camera, seat massage, all those options and the Lexus IS250 would probably be very close to $75,000 (give or take $10,000)
You know how dumb you sound? IS250 with base starting in the 35k range peaking at 75k? You must drive a big wheel or something. Just to compare prices here, the Mercedes Benz C63 AMG fully loaded will run you just shy of 70k. Do your homework please before posting such vomit.
No, I think you need to do your homework. The Lexus IS250 starts at about $32,000. The Lexus IS-F and Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG sit just below $60,000. Yea, maybe all of those features wouldn't bring the car up to $75,000, but maybe to $60,000 or so.
this "japcrap" is far better a gazillion times better than your caddy. sorry if i offended you but it is the truth. Lexus is one of the best cars out there
Alright, you bastards. Let's settle this. Both the Cadillac CTS and Lexus IS are well-made luxury sedans. The CTS is roomier, more powerful, more stylish/cooler, and more luxurious. The Lexus IS is more fuel-efficient and better priced. I'd rather have a Cadillac CTS, and that's not because I'm American. I really do respect Cadillacs, even though they are American. I like the Lexus IS, and it does get a lot of brownie points for being more affordable, but the Cadillac CTS is just more practical.
And don't get me wrong, I really admire the Lexus IS. Lexuses are well-built cars. All I'm saying is that the CTS is also a very high-quality luxury car.
I test them all and picked the IS because this car moves!!! The Bmw 335 is worth a test drive, but has a bad interior.(fun as hell to drive though). The IS 350 will eat anything in this car catagory in a stop -light race. Love the 4:08 6 speed gears.
nice cars,but very expensive.

The Lexus will have superior quality and fit and finish, and superior resale value compared to the Infiniti

Ok guys,
This pricing is possibly due to different countries?
Im in Australia and the IS250 starts at 56k plus onroad costs. and the sports luxuty is at $75k. this probably explains the reasons for this argument.
We also did not get the IS350 becasue some companies marketing teams(wont mention which one) are absolute morons.
