Does the AWD have an annoying hump in the foot well near the gas pedal?

@@sethm10yes

True lol I watched a video of someone reviewing the LC500 and they said it had a V6 😂😂 maybe it was the LC500H but idk

im looking to buy a used 2021 IS 350 in a few months or so and was wondering is it somewhat fast?

@@dillondeniz2342 Tough question to answer b/c it depends on what you've owned and driven before. I recommend test driving one. The IS500 is not significantly faster than the IS350 AWD b/c the AWD can really put the power down. Also, the IS500 isn't a true F car. So you're paying 10K more for the IS500 over a fully loaded IS350 AWD and all you're getting is the V8 and some barely noticeable visual detail changes. For that much more I expect a wider body and bigger wheels and tires at least...

Rear wheel up north death trap

true but for some it makes a nice rest for your right leg. it’s good for some, deal breaker for others 😂

I agree, I ended up upgrading to the LC500h as they dont sell the new IS300h

Yes, Europe Lexus stopped the IS at the moment it became a dangerous contender to the germans.

And that's good, Lexus is known for reliability

@@opshredderytp donkeys are reliable too. But none is buying them.

@@opshredderytphis comment has nothing to do with reliability lol

@@93ksj lmao

You can get the Triple Beam lights, which include LED indicators.

I agree, and the CD player is almost a deal breaker. This car spoke to me when I laid eyes on it the first time. Did a deep dive and almost let it go for the reasons you’re talking about. Then I gave it a second chance just to make sure, and bought it that day. Spent 3 months trying to find a car that makes me as happy as my new 2024 IS350.😊 This is a drivers car, and might just be perfection.

Not at all. There are people out there like me who prefer an all motor over these new European turbo charged engines. I know that I am getting an engine that has shown over the history that they will last you a very long time (as long as you maintain it) if you want longevity lexus if you don’t plan to keep the car long term go with a European car.

@@EduardoISF All engine? Doesn’t even make sense. The engine is only pat of it. The car is old and outclassed and out performed by ALL the competition. The engine should last considering it’s nearly 20 years old. That’s not an accomplishment. It’s expected. Not everyone wants a car that’s already 15 years old just to keep it 15 more years. It’s pathetic reasoning, especially when Lexus makes far more modern vehicles.

@@MercOne that’s ok I really don’t care for high performance or how fast the car goes. If they really want speed the IS500 gives you almost 500hp on a V8. Some of us prefer reliability over performance. This V6 performs good enough for my taste as it’s fast enough for daily driving while it still maintains it’s reliability. 20 years from now you will still see this car in the streets. I mean really how often do you see old Audi’s old BMW’s compared to the Japanese cars? I rather pay 45k to a car that isn’t gonna give me problems to a “all fancy” German cars.

@@EduardoISF That's fine but just because you don't get it doesn't change the facts about the IS. All variants of the car is laggards vs the competition. Yeah and that 500hp V8 is no faster than the 6-cylinder competition. So much for that. Reliability over performance is just bullshit. It's what you all have told yourselves in order to justify buying an outdated car. Most cars are reliable and what you are you saying is that Lexus can't do high performance and reliability at the same time? It's specious nonsense. No one cares about "seeing" this car on the street 20 years from now, that's a terrible reason to buy a car that is already 15 years old. If it were a new design I could see that appeal, but it's already ancient and 20 years from now it will be akin to a horse and buggy. I see old BMWs all the time, open your eyes. Old Audis are junk no argument there, but buying a new car based on how many old ones you see it just stupid to me. That's fine you want a car with no problems, well your overpaying for a Lexus, a Toyota will do the same thing for far less since an appliance is what you seek, there is never anything said about the car itself, only that's it trouble free and it lasts. It's yawn inducing.

@@MercOne “buying an old car based on the cars I see” lmao I just like reliable cars. Some of us don’t want to invest in consistently having to pay big 💰 on maintenance. A lot of us like the simple stuff about the car. Not everything is electrical like most European cars where something breaks and it’s an electrical problem. Not one single European brand car company cracked the top 10 car companies in the USA. Toyota was 1st and Toyota is what you call “outdated” FWD cars, not sporty but known for reliability, gas saving engines, Hybrids etc. Goes to show you that the majority of America has preferred either Japanese vehicles over those “super charged sporty loud money pits.” I wouldn’t consider over paying when I know the car is gonna last me easily 10+ years with great maintenance.

Totally disagree this car has no bad angles imo

Yea this one looks way better than the last gen
