Is the 2023 Lexus IS 350 F Sport AWD WORTH IT | M4 Owner Review

[@louiexiii91]

Trading the IS350 for a 2023 IS500!? kzbin.info/www/bejne/poDCcoJ4hMZgf8k

[@asdfuhh00]

Have a black is350 with the bbs rims, windows tinted, did a chrome delete, and put on red caliper covers on it 🔥🔥 🔥

[@louiexiii91]

Nice bro!

[@PlanetSYX]

Can u post a short on the black 350 I’d love to see it 🩶

[@dblitzer29]

can i see it with the chrome delete? did you go chrome black or matte?

[@blu_is500]

Upgrade your air filter to a TOM’s racing filter and you’ll immediately feel a difference in the car’s breathing. And this 3rd Generation refresh (from 2021) is the BEST looking car on the market today. 😎 Thanks for posting!

[@louiexiii91]

Yes sir! Appreciate the feedback!

[@sunsetcliffs98]

How much does it add to performance?

[@blu_is500]

@@sunsetcliffs98 HP-wise it’ll only add 2 to 3 extra, but the car gets quicker access to all of its power with a less restrictive air filter. So the light to light race could go from even to you edging out the person. But it’s not about the racing, it’s hearing and feeling a free breathing V8!

[@samunden]

Just bought a is350 and stumbled upon your video and recognized good old Santa Maria in the background. We just moved from there last summer. Miss it! Great review btw

[@Entropied]

The car turns heads everywhere you go. I have the ultra white exterior and red interior. The 3 series nor C class look as good.

[@allantruong7031]

Little late, but this you are the first person that genuinley reviews cars. You review and mention things that most car reviewers don't think about. It's the small things. This is why I subbed!!

[@edwardeidinger8235]

You can get the black out package that blacks out all the chrome and the 2 wheel drive model sets 3/4” lower than the AWD model and you can also get a performance exhaust that sounds a lot better

[@Slimjim180]

HUGE fan of your car reviews. You gave my dream car (the M4 comp) and the car I was thinking about purchasing (the Is 350). Love the back road car videos. Especially in the M4! Great videos

[@louiexiii91]

Thanks brother! Glad you enjoy!

[@JohnWick-wm4pd]

I’m picking up my 2024 I S, 350 F Sport, White ext. black interior, black tint. Clean looking

[@clintbrown7275]

Love the video! I think having your girl more involved in the videos is dope to see!!

[@louiexiii91]

Appreciate it bro! She definitely brings value to the vids.

[@kentrelljarrell2730]

There were other slight changes not mentioned. The circular air vents on the side are different. The gloss black where the buttons are is different too. It's flat black in the older ones. Agreed it hasn't changed much but it's still new and still nice. Idk if the screen for the odometer has always moved.

[@yg78t76t7]

the restrictiveness is all those resonators that they put to tame that V8. You start modding the exhaust and that bad boy is gonna open up for sure

[@g.richardson6883]

Good point about how Lexus balances the fine line between performance and reliability.

[@dubber4life]

Man, I love my Elantra N but you can’t get rid of the feeling that’s it’s so cheap and the fit and finish is horrendous. I’m really looking hard at a IS350 RWD with the dynamic handling pack. Hope it stacks up in the fun department

[@HKBoba]

One thing people dont talk about enough is the reliability and maintenance costs for lexus in comparison with cars in the same class Props for bringing it up

[@armandogomez2677]

She said as long as she around you never carless? Bro I would’ve gotten down on one knee right there.

[@PressureTheCarGuy]

Honestly, I've always loved the look of the Lexus but the only problem I have with Lexus is that they never evolved with the rest of the car companies when it comes to performance. Their numbers are just not there unless you tune. But great looking car and great video.

[@louiexiii91]

I hear you on that! Thanks bro!

[@mikelowry5012]

It’s because they are reliable and it works

[@J-J-TL]

Just picked up the IS 350 F Sport White / Red (Interior). Thing's a beauty. 😂😂😂

[@louiexiii91]

Haha nice man! Congrats!

[@abhisheknauduri7013]

I got mine in June. I have the Ultrasonic Mica Blue 2.0 with White interior. It's stunning especially during the day.

[@evolve777]

Looking forward to your wrap vlog.

[@louiexiii91]

Yes sir

[@longbowdt]

Here's a thought: compare this 350 F Sport AWD to the Alfa Giula with AWD. Both are known for their driving qualities.

[@louiexiii91]

Def will see if I can make that happen

Would you recommend getting a RWD 2024 Lexus IS350 or 2024 BMW 230 with M Sport package?

You and me both Lmao! Ever since I saw a 2015+ V8 Model I knew I'd have one eventually haha! ESPECIALLY when the SRT392 dropped. But I went to Test Drive an IS500 and I must say I was impressed.

[@williamsloredo6037]

Just got a 2021 IS 350 F Sport a few days ago. loving it so far. what percent tint did you put on yours? Im also going to do a chrome delete eventually

[@JamesBrown-ny2dw]

we need that 500vs 350 comparison video bro

[@ThadJarvis7952]

Loved lexus cars but in my opinion i think the 2nd gen of the IS350 is the best. The ones from 2010-2013. My wife has the 3rd gen and ive driven the newest 2023 but i think the 2nd gen with the direct fuel injection feature is still my favorite engine.. as far looks i like the 3rd and 4th gen also but with some slight modifications and upgrades with the 2nd gen, it still looks the best. Either way all lexus cars are amazing

[@Tripl3Jinx]

I love Lexus and coming from the Mid West that wheel gap is needed if this is to be a winter car lol.

[@jtorres304]

Really want the white interior but idk how it’ll hold up

[@mars56100]

[@castxo3087]

bro quick question are the parts for the car expensive? i mean maintenance wise if something were to start failing are parts affordable or they too pricey ?

[@jpete3027666]

Great video, you guys are adorable. Just subscribed.

[@S5MIKEY]

the awd really hinders this car though, the 8 speed transmission is way stronger and can hold up to 700whp

[@luisisdelulu]

i do wonder what is the difference between 2024 IS 350 F SPORT DESIGN and 2024 IS 350 F SPORT

[@Ghost_717]

Compared to like an M340i and a Red Sport 400 at this price range, those cars are better ONLY because Lexus chose not to turbo this car for whatever reason

[@amyma94]

What it’s like on maintenance on this vehicle?

[@heyyaa8317]

I would love to see you do a review on a M340i and see what you have to say about it. I been thinking about getting this or a M340i and I can't decide yet haha. I am leaning more towards the BMW, just waiting to find a good used one with low miles for a good price then i will pull the trigger

[@louiexiii91]

absolutely will do asap

[@Keenuwest]

I’m in the same boat! Currently have a 2012 TL but i love the looks of the is350 more, but i know the m340i has a stronger engine. Even thought about the is500 but these gas prices are crazy to have a V8 as a daily driver

[@possession3929]

as long as your fine with paying 3k for brakes on a M car, 2k for tires, higher insurance, and expensive maintenance. The m340 will be a match for you.

[@eliyahabraham3292]

The Apexi throttle command is what you need.

Damn! This thing is loaded up! How’s the mark levinson?

[@louiexiii91]

lexus is underrated for suree , in the high end models for lexus thats where youl get faster cars

[@Bigjohn928]

Did you purchase a extended warranty?

[@kalwillis8717]

Do yall use the mid grade or full premium grade

[@jaxsold]

Lexus recommends Premium for most of their vehicles, including the IS

[@dougrodriguez4977]

Lol, your girl was shocked that you gave an 8 out of 10 to her car and you quickly adjusted that. I'd like to see you put your head in that wheel gap.

[@misafahan2965]

Have you guys experienced tire wear on your front wheels??💔

[@rook3364]

It’s because of stagger set up they last only 16k miles on the newer is350 that’s why yes it’s more wear and tear

Полный привод или задний? 8-ступка или 6, не могу решиться

[@MarvR9]

Honestly bro if she drives in eco mode, and all you can do is talk about is the IS 500 i think at this point you just want it or want her to have it for you to drive. Just trade this in and help her pay the difference for the 500. Why else would she need a car with more than 300 horsepower

[@heyyaa8317]

Honestly I was thinking the same and I am on the same boat as she is at. I have a honda accord since 2014 bought it brand new and I am now finally ready to upgrade to something FASTER and that looks and feels nice. 300hp is a lot, but once you get to 400hp I think it's a lot more fun and better package for the amount of money NEW cars are going for nowadays. Who wants to drive a brand new car that has 200hp? Its extremely boring especially when you love cars. You can tell she really loves cars and it would make her very happy if she switched to the 500 and he would have a lot of fun too(even though he already has an m4). So it's best of both worlds I do agree with you on that
