2015 Lexus IS 250 Full Review, Start Up, Exhaust

[@jephthahchikeluejcmoore9172]

My dream car❤ I will surely buy it. When ever I get money.

[@dubnationbestnation510]

I plan to buy this car in 2019 or 2020 when it is about 20k cheaper.

[@nakachi1331]

me too

[@naegleriafowleri76]

+DubNationBestNation lol this car is overpriced as fuk though, it only has 200hp, you are paying for the brand

[@naegleriafowleri76]

JB P 200hp again, overpriced

[@Nutellaa_1]

You can actually buy this car now used for about 20k

[@ZOMEXCSGO]

Latin Lover the cars are stable in price, so if you buy a lexus u can sell them after 5 years and you will get 70% of your money invested back.

[@cizzlen07]

Holy jeezus that thing is beautiful

[@HappyRider2011]

Agree! :)

[@papitoricokim8475]

disagree

[@oscarjeong3137]

2015 version IS is the last version that is using V6 direct injection engine. If you want to avoid turbo lags or maintenance issue caused by turbo components, you must get this year version. BTW, 2015 IS 250 drive mode selector button surface is kinda weak. I had once a long index finger nail that scratched the surface of the button.

[@totanny]

I just purchased my first Lexus. I bought this model. I watched the whol thing to make sure I didn't miss something when I bought it. The only thing the salesperson missed was the link for the garage door opener. So excited! Thanks for a great review! I just need how to use the electrical part of it, radio, Siri, Lexus enform remote etc.

[@HappyRider2011]

Congrats on the new purchase! ;) And thank you for watching and supporting ^_^

[@RuelSpot]

The 2015 Lexus IS 250 4 doors sports sedan is very attractive.

[@HappyRider2011]

Ruel Spot Absolutely Agree ;)

[@Lennox1492]

1:55 seconds, check out the right exhaust, you see a flicker of fire for a split second... anyone else see that too?

[@austinbryant-ellis2300]

Lls hell yea I replayed 3 times just for that

[@Lennox1492]

Austin Bryant-Ellis haha me too, I thought I was seeing things and didn't want to post unless I was sure! Lol. I do like this car a lot

[@HappyRider2011]

Lennox1492 Even i didn't notice it ;)

[@kongbook888]

My dad got this car for me :') and it will be here next week so excited

[@HappyRider2011]

SA Consoles Congrats! That's an awesome gift! Let us know how you like it ;)

[@TheJuiicymelanie]

SA Production how do you like it? I plan on getting this

[@heedless619]

thanks i'm getting the F-sport soon!

[@HappyRider2011]

heedless619 anytime! Goodluck ;)

[@Hambo04]

Your walk throughs are so insightful. Would love to see you have done one for the Mazda 6.

[@ksimm1986]

Thanks for all your reviews. I watch them all the time.

[@HappyRider2011]

Kirk Simmons Thanks a lot for watching and supporting ;)

[@MichaelNNguyen]

Very car, love the redesign of the IS. might need to upgrade to this bad boy.

[@abd-alrahmanmohammed3095]

amazing review thank's man

[@HappyRider2011]

Anytime! Thanks for watching & supporting :)

[@Hgood1]

I noticed you mentioned, "if you're buying the car for your son or daughter." Nice parents who'd buy their kid a car, with taxes, that would run 40 grand. I'd be very happy for my dad to buy me one. Somehow, I don't think it's gonna happen. It's a beautiful car and I think they will attract Acura buyers who loved the sporty TSX, which is now gone, and replaced with the TLX, which looks more like a grandpa car. I could see myself jumping form Acura. I have to go now to play the lottery in hopes of buying an Lexus IS 250. They really did a super job on the styling. I did see another review in which they felt that the navigation system was akward and cumbersome. What is your opinion of the nav? Good KZbin walk-through of the car, nice job, well-done.

[@HappyRider2011]

Hgood1 Thanks! I personally see no problem with the Nav. System. That maybe because I am accustomed to it as I've own a Lexus Since 2010

[@cizzlen07]

I too am going to switch from Acura. Lexus/Toyota are miles ahead in reliability in my 20+ years of experience with both brands.

[@JorJor812]

Actually you can lease one with no money down for $379 a month. That's not too bad!

[@sami6936]

thank u that was awesome review

[@dyarom4575]

Blinking-blinking:) sexy Lexus IS 250:)

[@ulauz11]

I have that exact model but it's 2014. Was wondering why I have a similar headlights,which is 1 bulb with high n low beam. Probably mine is October of 2014 and they put the same thing. Cuz I was checking other 14 models and they have separated bulbs.

[@Scorp333]

Which would you buy a used 2014 Lexus IS250 Fsport or a New 2016 Civic Touring???

[@HappyRider2011]

hmm.. I would go with lexus ;)

[@thanhbinhnguyen508]

Lexus ;) if u own a lexus u will never regret. As me now.

[@HighMagnitudeGT]

Fuck the civic ;)

[@TWV]

Can you please do a review on the f sport version

[@HappyRider2011]

Vardan Vardanyan I'll see if I can find one for you ;)

[@qwqwqwqwasasasasz]

If you lock yourself in the trunk you probably shouldn't be driving

[@WallabeeKingpin]

Smile Dabengwa Actually, it is really good to know about this feature. For example, I won't buy this model because it would be difficult to transport people i knock out with a shovel in the trunk.

[@sosocoolkid]

What's the difference between this model and F sport?

[@markc2157]

Thanks for the video. Any thoughts between an IS250 and 328i?

[@philipchang12]

obviously this car is underpowered compared to its german competitors but would you say the 250 is good enough to just drive normally and pass cars if i need to quickly? The price on the leftover 2015 models are too great not to pick one up at this point. Almost 9000 off MSRP

[@vaporthug]

I have the ISF. Is the handling comparable. I just can't imagine a slightly heavier IS 250, with less than 1/2 the HP of my ISF. IT must seem very slow... Does it?

[@HappyRider2011]

Mity Nice Quality Advice More than enough power for fun ;)

[@AXELAMR3]

Very impressive

[@baraaalghamdi340]

Is there a difference between 2014 and 2015 models?

[@kongbook888]

yes so much

[@BrightErawat]

When you shift with the knob in manual standard mode, do you need to let off the gas when you shift gear?

[@HappyRider2011]

BrightErawat No, you do not ;)

[@CCCPCommunist]

Doe sit have gps?

[@Lazaru5Ze]

Which is the maroon car in the background ? in the begining

[@HappyRider2011]

Lazaru5Ze Looks like a Toyota Corolla

[@rezamoghadasianrad7743]

love is250 but never liked poor head lights on this one, see first generation say which one is sweeter

[@xoOrayanOox]

Looks nice enough for just a standard ! Thanks for the review my man ;*

[@HappyRider2011]

Agree. Thanks for watching ;)

[@edwardkim7770]

this is 2014? i have the 2015 model and the mouse pad is different

[@HappyRider2011]

Edward Kim This is the 2015 model ;)Did you purchase any packages?

[@M.L.7]

+Edward Kim I just got the 2015, and my remote pad, too, is different than the one in this video. I do know that I bought the premium package, and I'm guessing that you did, too.

[@jmullerxx]

+Edward Kim because you probably have navigation you get a different mouse pad with that

[@kentarwen]

14:14 😏

[@TWV]

Is this a keyless entry. Like u have the key fob in your pocket and the door opens?

[@HappyRider2011]

Yes, it is

[@jacobpalmer127]

do they not let you DRIVE the cars or something?

[@freddyarazi1257]

Is this the standard version?

[@M.L.7]

+Freddy Arazi I just got one 3 weeks ago, and I ended up getting the premium package. There are quite a few things that are different in the one I have. I'm guessing that this is (or was) the base model. However, I did noticed that this video was published in 2014.

[@SHINCOMO]

Very nice review, and i have one question about the car and that is what color is the car that is being shown

[@HappyRider2011]

Thanks. The color is called Star Fire Pearl. I always include the color in description box also ;)

[@stevelin6674]

front and rear tire sizes are different?

[@HappyRider2011]

Yup

[@4DModding]

Hows the reliability?

[@HappyRider2011]

nhbb980 Very ;)

[@MsBeloved89]

Lexus is rated #1 in reliability.

[@4DModding]

Would you buy the F Sport or S Line?

[@sranjesuper]

Nice car, except the 2015 C class leaves this car in the dust. Lexus was beating merc before 2012, but comparing the new ones, the C Class looks and drives better than the lexus by a huge margin.

[@ZeerXX]

The c class is also way more expensive. The price points arent the same as the previous class. I love the new c class.. but the IS has a nicer aggressive look.

[@sranjesuper]

ZeerXX yeah I like the back end of the IS, but the front looks a bit deformed as if they were trying too hard or something.. and I like the front of the C class, but I like the IS back.. hmm they should combine the front of C class with the back of IS

[@juxtagenesis1120]

ZeerXX Actually, I don't think the Mercedes is that much more. The IS 250 starts at 36,550. I think the C300 base is around 38k.

[@sranjesuper]

JB P 200 dollar oil changes? Yeah, if you go to the dealer, both will rape you whether it's lexus or mercedes. Go to an independant and it will be around $100. I own a 2012 C250 1.8T and i had it for 2 years now, and had 0 repair costs, except oil changes. Granted, i bought the car with 40,000km and now i'm at 70,000km, and i even upgraded the engine with a bigger intercooler and wastegate. I also going to do a ECU tune soon and a downpipe. With that being said, i do admit that lexus cars are more reliable than Benz, but i also admit that they don't hold up as well as Benz after 10-15 years. The body rusts on them pretty fast compared to german cars. They do however have less problems in the first 8 years i would say.

[@TheJhaley12]

Yeah start 'er up and rev the hell out of it before the oil gets up into the engine.

[@مقاطعمضحكه-ت5د]

كأنه كامري؟

[@مقاطعمضحكه-ت5د]

الجديد

[@watchwhileworking]

7:04 LOL......the cruise control looks just like my cruise control on my 2006 Toyota Corolla!!!!!!!!! Only my Corolla was $$$$ Cheaper!!!

[@liudizzle]

You think a girl would rather ride with you in a lexus or a corrolla?

[@holdstill6877]

Oof

[@pagornsuebwong4320]

wait for money to buy soonest

[@HappyRider2011]

Good luck ;)

[@altimax9091]

204 horse power?..:-(

[@HappyRider2011]

Yup ;)

[@TheSushiandme]

So you are telling me you can't lock people in the trunk? :'( JK, But seriously.... who can accidentally lock themselves in the trunk?

[@HappyRider2011]

Lol !!!! You never know!!

[@alexjones4president]

Overrated. For $35,000 you would think Lexus could install a bigger nav/radio screen.

[@Azzam-3]

There is No big difference between the 350 and 250

[@nateg5915]

1xAzamx1 There's a 100+ hp difference and better suspension. Thats a big difference to me, but the masses will buy the cheaper 250 just like any other car brand….ie most ppl buy bmw 328i over the 335i

[@liudizzle]

Youre trippin, I have the 350 fsport and its quick as hell

[@jaysee313]

The 2015 infiniti Q50 AWD (base model) is equipped with a 3.7L V6 engine that puts out 328 HP...AND the lease options are competitive (in the mid 300's). Yeah I'd rather go with that.

[@Kokunihon]

I live in Japan and here Lexus is not considered to be premium here. Japanese people also prefer smaller cars like Toyota Corollas. Most rich Japanese people prefer German brands such as BMW and Mercedes. I've lived here for 8 years so I know Japan's auto trends.

[@flyerboy2594]

why surprised... do you see Americans patronizing opel or citreon

[@InvincibleMegaBeast]

almost 40k and only 200HP lmfao...fawk tat shit.

[@raymondluna3018]

Honestly the Lexus is letting me down . The Hyundai's looks more modern and stylish. Even the interior surpassed the Lexus. Lexus step up your game.

[@kaledahmed9198]

bòooo

[@Nuebayolchickito]

That Lexus Is car suck and ugly and is to much money for it . I just got my Self a 2015 Buick Regal GS and my Shit just kicking ass only for 33,000 and is an American car made in USA I'M very Happy with my Shit.

[@cizzlen07]

That's a good deal although I completely disagree with you. The new Lexus IS is a sexy one of a kind beast.

[@hutulu54]

buick regal is german shit it is opel

[@Nuebayolchickito]

taka 54 Buick Regal is german you must be on drugs

[@Nuebayolchickito]

taka 54 What ttt??? That Buick is German ? Boy Let me Tell You Something You Need Jesus in your Life.

[@bjc_9975]

Dominicano y que should've got a Cadillac ats

[@garya5888]
