i drove it !! sykk car !! I liked it. Good ride to tune up. I am staying with my current IS, not too much into the IS350 but when I drove it, it's transmission is the last best thng Lexus did.

its nice alright but apparently the stability control program can't be turned off, which is a minus point!

if you asked me, it does look good but looks less sporty now, for some reason. but yes, it is way better looking than its direct competitor, the e90.

hello SafirXP, friend of mine is thinking of buying the new Lexus IS, but you recent post made me kinda worried about the stability control thing (ESP). I tried to look for the problem on lLexus fourms and other car magazin website, but couldn't find any articles. Could you please refour your source of information??? I would really appriciate it.

don't exactly remember but you could check sites like www.autocar.co.uk or www.autoweek.com where they've done a road test.

but i'm sure that problem is there. its the VDIMM feature that you can't turn off. most of the reviews complained about it. have a look in the magazine scan section in www.jabbasworld.net - they had an is250 road test scan there.
