@@CentralJerseyRailfan I don’t think it’s that big of a surprise . They have been puttin NA v8 in Tundra, Sequoia. And then Lexus has their GX and of course the GS F. What is a bigger surprise to me was them finally producing an FI engine with that twin turbo v6 they are using right now

It’s not a last hurrah it’s a new golden age! Electrification still does not have technological advancements it needs to replace ice both in longevity and amount of distance able to be covered and also recharged. No body is going to want to keep having to buy cars every 2-4 years because the batteries degrade. This will cause even more pollution and junk yards crammed with cars that otherwise would have been fine if they had an engine.

The IS500 isn’t a Lexus F it’s F-sport performance, but you guys addressed the first thing. Appreciate that to help people out

[@ARentz07]

Love that you guys finally got to review one of these especially since Jakub has owned an F before. Wanted to chime in and say, when you guys said you'd turn the ASC off, that wasn't actually fully-off. When you turn the dial down, it stops at a minimum volume, if you will, and then it will "click" into an off position. I own an IS 350 and have sat in an IS 500 and it's the same way. So if I had one I'd probably turn it off right away. I am with you guys on the Incognito color, I would much prefer the metallic Cloudburst Gray.

It's commendable that Lexus actually lets you turn off the fake sound

[@YYZ-SRQ]

Just hit the back button on the steering wheel to get rid o& the warning message.

i love this car but one of the reasons id buy it is for the burnouts, but ur tellin me i cant even do burnouts….? that’s ridiculous

[@LateNightDateNight]

You can do burnouts, there’s plenty of videos of people in this exact vehicle doing them

[@Grey3IS]

Lexus IS for the win!! Great video guys.

🇺🇲MAKE AMERICA V8 AGAIN😎

Would've been cool for Toyota to put this engine in the Supra instead of using a BMW one

[@typicalgamer5560]

A v8 supra 🤨

[@jeffthedream]

@@typicalgamer5560 Would've been really cool and would make the car feel more jdm

[@isanchez9839]

@@jeffthedream V8s and JDM do not go together at all, you have no idea what you’re talking about

[@jeffthedream]

@@isanchez9839 it's literally a Japanese engine 💀 if you have nothing positive to say go away

[@isanchez9839]

@@jeffthedream this engine on the Lexus IS definitely a V8. What I’m saying is JDM and V8s aren’t known to go together. It’s more inline 6s or 4 cylinders. In this case putting a V8 in a Supra (which are famously known for the 2JZ inline 6 engine) would be out of place as Supra have always been know for their inline 6 engines I’m not even trying to be mean, go look it up for yourself

That Primer paint is kinda meh

[@stephancollier2547]

I ordered a 2021 IS350 fsport RWD with LSD in cloud burst grey, Black BBS wheels, with all the options for my wife. She loves it! But now a year later she wants this and I agree. 😂

[@naveenthemachine]

This is one of the few Toyota’s I’d absolutely recommend. That v8 🤩😍
