The new IS

:tdown:

im really disaponted in Toytoa/Lexus for the new is350/250 line . To me its more of a boat car then anything else rather then a more sporty agressive look like there previous gen. It does have a nice power figure out.

:tup: 306 hp
:tdown: only avalbe in automatic
:tdown: 3530 curb weight
:tify: looks

anyone else think the same?

post pix then ill have an opinion dood

what motor?

I like it but its not even close to th original one. I doesnt have that sport sedan attitude to it anymore.

That’s a nice looking car.

looks like a big corolla to me

Glad the altezzas are gone

Actually, looks more like a large Mazda 3 to me…

I like it. :tup:

only car i liked them with
it was actually called the toyota altezza in jap land

Every car is gaining weight. :frowning:

i think the car is amazing… upset its only available in auto… 2.5 is the only one with AWD, upsetting for the buffalo winter… and i built one on lexus.com to see the price…

47k is more than id spend on a lexus… fo shizzle

Looks like a overseize Tc to me :gotme:

it looks ok, got to see it in person tho

i like the way it looks… but price is a diff story

The current IS was released only in Auto initially too.

:shrug: I think it looks better in other colors.

$36k base for the IS350 with most options, under $40k loaded. Price isn’t that bad.

:word:

I think I’d rather go w/ a TL… and for $47k I’d rather go w/ a RL

word…or if u really wanna be a baller get a new BMW 3 series with AWD…

2 of my bosses have the new 3 series AWD both 6 spd…i beelive…and my 3rd boss has a TL with everything u can imagine in it as far as factory options…“they are so called company cars” damn shareholders

looks more like a luxury car then a sporty car, theyre tryin to get older ppl in them, they dont even want us younger guys in em
