I'd buy this, in this color and dark wheels. The IS250 F-Sport.

No. Honestly its a HORRIBLE car to drive. It looks absolutely amazing, but the wheezy engine and terrible transmission ruin it. I got a 2014 as a loaner car and I hated every minute of it.

BUT WHY BUY A NEW IS250 F-SPORT WHEN YOU COULD GET A USED IS-F FOR THE SAME PRICE

Why?

You have impeccable taste on most matters. Why get a car with a grill like that?

I seriously hate the grill. It's hideous

IS350 F-Sport or bust. That 2.5L V6 is horrible.

Because I think it looks incredible, razor sharp lines, and the spindler grille looks weird without a license plate, I'll admit, but with a license plate it looks great.

dont get the IS250. the 350 is a much better deal. you lose literally .1 MPG between 2WD 250 and AWD 350 because the 250 motor has to work so much harder

I currently drive a 4 speed I4 150hp french boat. 2.5 V6 and 6 speed doesn't sound so bad

there's one of these at my office in white with the dark wheels. It looks a lot better in person, although that just could be because I can't ever see the grille because of the way they park it...

Under powered for the car and paired to a 6-speed auto compared to the 3.5's 8-speed.

Motor trend says it's smooth, so it has that going for it I guess.

they are both v6's

my mom has the last gen IS250. an 08. its not a BAD motor. but its over burdened in that car (at least with the AWD we have) and the fuel economy isnt great. its remarkably smooth and quiet. but thats about it. the 3.5 is a much better motor over all.

No thanks. Pretty weak car if you ask me. If we were talking Lexus I'd get a RC F.

Imagine if all Audis had one single grille, without the partition. That's what Lexus did wrong.

200hp and 6 speed. The C5 has 150, 4 speed and that hefty suspension system.


Kinja'd!!! Too many M's > My citroen won't start

They're not atrocious. I agree with most that they look better with the front plate, a big euro-style one. Without it there's no real line to break up the massive grille. There truly are worse cars out there than this one. From the rear 3/4 view I think it's best.


Kinja'd!!! RazoE > My citroen won't start

Still, it's a really heavy car. My IS300 has more power and is lighter. I honestly would wait for the IS200t with a turbo 2.0L 4cyl. It'll have more power than the IS250 (and my IS300 at that).

If it looks BETTER with a plate, therein lies the problem. Look at the GS-F, it has a piece of grill that divides the spindle and it looks 100x better than the IS.
