Lexus IS250 In-Depth Review

[@bunkymag]

I have an 08 Is250. Agree completely on the quality of the doors and interior, it is absolutely top notch. Even the handles on the roof inside feel amazing! Great car.

[@VuckoHD]

Yeah true, so many attention to details like you said handles on the roof, they dont fold like usual but stick out. Also I didnt mention the car comes with standard Heated & Cooled seats (although because mine doesnt have leather seats since its a sport package, I only have heated seats)

[@Intergalactic2000]

I'm thinking of buying one, would you say it's a good choice.

[@hexx0502]

thanks for the info, gotta get a 08 is250 as my first car. :D

[@MrSabinR]

Beautiful, congrats for the video efforts, it makes this stand out out of all the IS videos out there

[@lukeson8934]

most Lexus cars to me are like angels. I love them so much, the ride so swiftly, they go fast and are luxurious. my Dad owns a Toyota Altezza and I want to drive it so bad!

[@lozzholding]

Love these reviews - just bought an IS250 Sport in New Zealand (pearl white of course) with some help from your videos. Your English is exceptional!

[@VuckoHD]

Thanks, stay tuned for more Lexus IS250 videos and enjoy your beloved IS250!

How is it on gas?

[@OnFire4Freedom]

IS-250 is one of the best cars ever made... luxury enough, low maintenance, good mpg, very good looking and maintains a higher resale value than most cars... I got in my garage a 2010 with an AWD, only 26k miles, a unique silver blue color that's difficult to find, and an EPS... I only drive it once in a while to keep it in shape ❤️

[@julvy2521]

about to get an 07 awd with 109k miles. is it worth?

[@BioBlaz3]

Tying to decide between an IS 250 with a standard transmission vs a second gen GS300

[@OnFire4Freedom]

@@julvy2521 So as long as the milage is real, has no accidents, clean in and out, no water damage, no rust, and no mechanical issues... check the paint condition very closely... if the paint looks great it could be that it was either garage kept or the paint is not original... it it has been previously painted then find out the reason(s) How about structural damage? Extremely important.... if it has maintenance records it's a big plus... Usually cars that old with such low millage have had no more than 2 pre-owners... Ask the seller for a Carfax, this is a must... and even if the carfax seems good I would still take it to a professional... and if it is all true, then I say yes, it is absolutely worth it. 👍 Check the peddles, the speedometer box to make sure no one has tampered with it. If there is something funny with it then it is probably a lemon. Check the undercarriage for rust, very important... check the paint and all the interior for any damages... write down all damages you find, this can help you negotiate the price. 👍

I bought 2009 reg is 250 sel it's costly to run but there is something about this car that I love so much.It does feel so refined and smooth.Also is not as slow as people say if u drive by the speed limits it's more then fast enough.Dunno how much will last me but the fact that I chose it over newer cars is something I think Lexus is know for and is bullet proof reliable

[@gwgrote5]

I enjoyed this review and your enthusiasm. I have a similar car but one year newer and here in the US, alcantara seats have never been an option in the Lexus IS which means your individual packages are different. I have some of the sport package, but no navigation system. Without the nav, one doesn't get the auto closing side mirrors, that cool way you can lower your windows using your remote, memory seats, or the automatic steering column adjustment. If I had chosen the navigation, then all of what you have would have been added. I'm amazed that you have 153,000 miles on this car already yet it still looks brand new. This is still one of the best reviews on YT for the IS 250 and the fact you are 6 foot, makes it that much better. :o)

[@ManaFPS]

Yeah I am in Australia and we have alcantara on them too. I hate leather, alcantara is my favourite so im happy about that

[@liambrown1216]

I currently have both, both are great cars id say the IS250 is on a different level to the Accord in terms of comfort/refinement, but the Honda is much more practical (more interior space) both are bulletproof reliable and will serve you well if looked after.

If you're interested in buying one of these cars how do you know if it has a sports package? If you're going to search for this car online is the key word to use 2007 to 2010 Lexus IS250 F Sport package or just sports package? I haven't had any luck finding any.

[@Cole_King]

I wanted to get this beautiful car to replace my Corolla t sport Compressor as its terrible on fuel consumption. But i hear this car is also not good on fuel in city driving because of the 2.5 V6 petrol engine you get 20 mpg. I thought Lexus also does a more economical diesel version of this car.

[@sizif717]

It has quite good fuel consumption for a V6 in town, if you drive slowly you will probably get over 20mpg. I get 32mpg average( town/highway). But still, if consumption is your priority - than a V6 petrol is not the best choice. The newer IS300(after 2013) has a hybrid drivetrain (4 cylinder petrol plus electro motor) and there the consumption is even better in town than a 4 cylinder diesel car.
