5 Things I LOVE about my Lexus IS350! Watch before buying! 2017 Lexus IS350

[@blu_is500]

You're right, the IS platform is pretty awesome! You cannot go wrong with either generation.

[@Miko3IS]

yeee brother they were built like tanks and sound great

[@lexusbruh904]

Beautiful 3is man! Currently got a 16' 200t and love it🎉🎉🎉

[@jesushernandez-tj3yv]

I bet the turbo sounds hella good in that 200t

[@lexusbruh904]

@jesushernandez-tj3yv It does haha

I love this car so much 🔥

The video i needed. thank you bro

I have a 19 IS and i fucking love it ! I plan on keeping it for a long time . Its definitely not the fastest but the looks are so good and it has almost all the features more modern cars have. You should deff get a roof wrap and have the side mirrors wrapped too or get mirror caps . Those two things change up the look to the car

[@Miko3IS]

Yea bro I love the 3is all around. I actually wrapped my roof black one day but it came it horrible due to me applying it like window tint and I took it off lol. Deff considering doing it real soon

[@Kimmy-ry9ko]

Just bought this new. Totally awesome🎉🎉🎉

2016 IS300 owner here. The 2017-2020 facelift is the best version of the IS. the 2021-present doesn't do it for me

[@brizuhk5043]

@@brian3is 100% the 2017-2020, even the 2014-2017, all feel sooo much rawer than the 2021+. The new tech is def amazing but the driving feel isn’t remotely the same

[@Miko3IS]

Highly agree, I even like the 14'-17' more than the newer ones but they also look like they are missing something. The 17'-20' looks almost perfect but really gets put together with a slight front lip in my opinion

[@brizuhk5043]

@@Miko3IS Definitely felt you when you said the car just looks like a race car and it truly does, if only we got a 5.0 model in this gen 🤣

[@coldnuudlles3370]

Still got my 2019 awd 350, love the car aswell, I have the axle back aswell but was planning on getting the rr tune after a ported lower intake manifold since I seen a couple threads on it since I have the lems intake and toms filter anyways. But the car has always been good to me otherwise, she always survives my highway rev limiters 😂

Great video man! This specific Lexus model and year are the best looking in my opinion. I highly suggest getting the $40 throttle controller on amazon. It will change your driving experience. I recently got the RR racing tune for my is300 awd (same v6 as i350) and after driving it after a few weeks, I have to say the throttle controller compliments it very well. I also was motivated to get an axleback exhaust for my car because of you and recently installed it. I personally never liked loud obnoxious cars but the one I installed is perfect, not too loud but makes it sound more sportier and aggressive and gives it character, from the moment it growls at start up to when you step on the gas. (Now I can relate on the lower MPGs because hearing that sound growl makes you want to floor it every time) haha I know you have a takeda intake installed. Whats your thoughts on it? I was wondering if you would suggest getting it? Would you say it affects the performance or mpg? Do you have any suggestions on intakes because everyone online says to either stay stock or go with k&n drop in. Whats your thoughts bro?

[@Miko3IS]

I never really looked into a throttle controller but honestly after this im gonna do some research. The takeda intake sounds great and also looks awesome in the engine bay. I wouldnt say it does too too much for performance gains but probably adds a little bit. I had someone comment on a video I posted saying the design of the intake I have doesnt suit the engine in the lexus as much as another one could but at this point im not gonna make any changes to it

[@brizuhk5043]

@@prodigy6X04 How you liking the RR Tune? Was waiting for like a full year for them to come out with the 2019 IS300 Tune 😭

[@prodigy6X04]

You get the most value if you're american because its just under 500 usd. If you are Canadian then its on the higher side of 800 cad. It definitely increases the throttle and can even be felt in eco mode. This tunr pairs well with a throttle controller as it makes for a smoother acceleration and faster. Without tune, the throttle controller can get jerky depending on the setting on the is300 awd. This tune won't turn ur vehicle into a super car but it is very beneficial for our car. I would recommend. Quite surprised on how theres not many reviews on the rr tune for the 17-20 is300 awd models online.

[@brizuhk5043]

@@prodigy6X04 It’s because RR racing just unlocked the ECU for the 2019’s or something 😭 They literally just dropped the tune for 2019’s like maybeee a year ago, it was weird

[@brizuhk5043]

@@prodigy6X04 Definitely gonna get that tune whenever i get my car back 😭🤞 $500 for 260Hp to 311+ is definitely a deal, $100 every 10Hp basically

[@brizuhk5043]

Unless you get the 3.5L AWD IS300, that’s basically the exact same car, but the 4 cyclinder are boring to the definition, Also Having a 2019 and having driven a few of the 2022+ IS3s, the 2017-2020 suspension feels soooo much rawer than the new springs, the new springs feel like your in a dodge or something, doesn’t have that same road connection

[@nbafan3021]

Thanks for your comment. I have the 18 300 AWD FSPORT and I love it. Very quick car and problem-free. I always wondered what the newer IS’s feel like. Glad to know my car feels better in your opinion.

[@brizuhk5043]

@ The new tech in the 21+ is amazing, i am jealous of the new tech but other than that, the 2017-2020 just feel so much better to drive, 2017-2020 models it feels like your nuts are on the road fr 🤣 the 2021+ ISs lowkey feel like your in an SUV it’s weird 😭
