Is the 2024 Lexus IS 500 F Blue Vector Edition the BEST new performance sedan to BUY?

The IS 500 F Sport Performance is getting a limited Blue Vector Edition from Lexus. This is just 1 of 150 that are being produced. On the outside you will find that eye catching Blue Vector color, flat black forged 19in wheels, FULL LED lighting and quad-tip exhaust. On the inside there is a full black interior with Blue Vector stitching throughout. Under the hood is a 5.0L V8 that is pumping out 472HP & is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission.

Lexus is in such a unique position. You have the best-looking exterior in the segment, the last V8 option in the segment, but the oldest interior in the segment. Don't get me wrong, Lexus quality is fantastic. Nothing rattles, nothing tears, or falls apart, but they need to update the screen and the control system to the new RX/TX/NX or even the ES system. These parts are all available working amazingly on other models, but it looks like they want to launch a brand new model for a full redesign soon.

Great review and kudos to you for being the first to review the IS500 in Blue Vector. I also ended up buying this exact car (2024 IS 500 Blue Vector) last month and I have to say I was considering this vehicle for the last 6 month. When this colour came into the show room I was sold immediately and pulled the trigger. I think it was in the showroom for only a day. For those of you considering any IS500, these vehicles are hard to come by, especially in this colour (150 units). Prior to this I've owned 3 different BMW's (X5, 335 xdrive, and 435 xdrive) and while they're fun and great looking cars they do cost quite a bit to maintain and have a tendency to find issues. Note, I've never had engine problems with BMW's, it's all the other stuff the goes and cost an arm and leg to fix. The reason why I went with Lexus is because I've also owned a 2006 Lexus RX400H (purchased in 2010) and it's been bulletproof. This vehicle was used primarily as the family hauler and it's currently at 335,000 KM ( 208,000 miles) and has only gone routine maintenance. I bet you it will last another 5 years. In short, if you're comparing a Lexus IS 500 vs M340 or M440 and you're looking for a great daily driver that will be a long term vehicle then I think the IS 500 is the way to go. Yes, the M340 is slightly faster 0-60 but realistically is that why you're buying the car? I personally found the BMW M340 too firm and uncomfortable as a daily driver. And yes, you'll be spending more money on fuel as the IS isn't as fuel efficient. But, you'll be saving way more money with the IS in the long term as you'll be avoiding costly repairs and maintenance at the dealership. Not to mention I bet the IS500 can outlive the life of any BMW.

[@RaitisRides]

That is so wonderful! Thanks for sharing that great ownership input!

[@kenbianucci2223]

Manny, I have a question for you about your car's color and term being used calling it Blue Vector. I picked up my IS 500 yesterday and the dealership had it advertised as Blue Vector edition but my Mulrooney calls it Blue Flame and the key fobs had little stickers on them stating Blue Vector. One of the many videos I watched over the last couple weeks had what they called a Blue Vector Edition and it had a plaque between the seat heat\cool buttons on the center console stating the actual build number for the special build. That car with the plaque had a metallic blue paint in a very similar shade as my car which I am calling Blue Flame. My car seems to be what in the Toyota lineup was once used on an older Corolla and the newly released GR Corolla which is not a metallic flake paint job and at this point I am confused what car color I have...

[@kenbianucci2223]

I found the answer to this and I had it wrong. I mixed up the Launch Edition with the plaque and this special release which does not get a plaque. Also, the release is calling this color Blue Vector and the only way you're going to get it is buy one of the 150 or a repaint 😛.

I got myself an Ultra White IS 500, this car is one of it's kind. The last of the Lexus V8s which are naturally aspirated pure clean power and bonus you get an LSD. The engine is so full of character, I wish there were auto mirrors and assisted trunk with real semi-aniline leather seats. Apart from that this is the best of the IS. Perhaps 2024 might be the last model year for this car, get it before it becomes another GS F.

Agreed. Other items Soft close doors Rear sunshade Heads up display Of course Manual Option

[@user-vn4sv2pw5z]

Yes, I was lucky to find my Ultra White IS 500 last April and it is a great overall car considering the four usable seats that fold down along with the usable trunk. I echo the sentiment about auto mirrors but no biggie. At the end of the day, it is a sleeper and great daily driver and can knock out 28mpg at 70 mph on cruise. And all the while cranking a good CD on the stereo. If you ever have to get out of the way, just push the pedal.

This car is beautiful! Lexus is the best of all! I was fighting with my tears while watching this video. Once I had the chance to drive a Lexus for a weekend and I fell in love with the brand! Everything inside and outside is uniqe and high quality. I love it! My personal preference is Lexus RC F Sport. I hope one day I'll be able to afford one!
