Hello Mr.Kilmer I would like to purchase a 2010 Toyota fielder what are your views on it and could you make a video on the 1.5 liter 1nz-fe engine
Would you recommend the Lexus IS350h?
Scotty, you're not cheap. You are a financial minimalist.
Scotty Kilmer What year is the car?
Scotty Kilmer Sorry sir, you answered my questions right at the beginning of the video. I started a little into it. Have a blessed day🙏🏽
Legend has it that there was a Land Rover that went 10,000 miles without a single failure. It was on a boat to a junkyard in China.
Now a land cruiser, on the other hand...
DSTY legend has it the land cruiser drove over the ocean to China
Believe it or not I've met a Land Rover that drove 120 000 miles without a single issue.
And it's not an old one. Made in India and still running strong.
Peter G. You sure the owner didn’t take it in for repairs and have stuff fixed without you knowing ?
Joe L. Do you have one to give away?
When i see a Lexus driver im like - that man right there(or a woman) is a smart and good person.
Same for Acura's also!
I see a Toyota with worse reliability
Lexus IS250 MIni CTS , only it works !
I have a Lexus 😄
@@memetic805 Respect!
My local doctor in Melbourne drives a Toyota Camry. Looks like 2015 model. I asked him why he drives Toyota, he said doesn't have time to go to mechanic.
Makes sense
I own the 2014 model. Still in shock at how beautiful and well-built the car is. Never had any issues.
How long have you had it? Still no issues?
@@ChiOfo going 2 years now. no major issues.
@@hummadsyed1499 Nice! What model?
@@ChiOfo I think it's i250 2014
I had a 2014 IS350 - got more for it than I paid. Great machine. Upgraded to RCF for the ponies
We don’t say “show me the car fax anymore”
We say: “Show this to Scotty and then we’ll talk”
Carfax is garbo. Gimme the Scottyfax.
Fax lol
Carfax is a crooked company
Jesus Garcia amen 🙏🏼
💯
I own this exact car, (2014) same trim. I've had it for 3 years, put a hundred thousand miles on it and it literally has never given me a single problem. 10/10 I would recommend as a work vehicle/daily driver.
Just out of interest what sort of MPG and driving?
Rob Horton how much u pay
Hopefully the inside is cleaner then that one!
It doesn't take unleaded does it?
How was it in the snow?
This man is a life saver. I grew up without someone to teach me the basics about car maintenance and watching these videos are more helpful than anyone could ever understand. I’ve saved so much money because of this man
so benz is not good?
Please sir, am confused to make a choice between IS 250 2015 model and IS 350 2015 model. I love the two cars but am afraid of fuel economy of these cars and confused on which one to go for as i don't know the one that retain more fuel or rather the one that is preferable. I really don't know which one to go for cos am considering my pocket in buying fuel. I don't need the F sport model. Please i need an honest answer on which one to go for 🙏🙏
Same here, want lexus and don't want expansive gas bills lol, let me know if found the answer, thanks
Just bought a IS250 2014 and now I feel more confident about my purchase.
I hated mine! Pretty and reliable no fun to drive, crappy handling, crappy power. Held its value well just traded it off
Still happy more than a year later?
@@TinnoRambo I wonder
Same, I have a 2015
How much
Toyota announced its new model called “Scotty” . It comes in four trims.
MT only, no push button start available, great A/C, solid steel door handles.
@@billsandrew don't forget made in Japan.
“The Scotty is unique in the sense that engineers 👩🏻💻 took great pains to remove unnecessary weight and “plastic crap” with the end product being a refined and reliable vehicle.” _Car & Driver magazine, May 2020._
wow...i take the Scotty fully loaded :-) !
Honk the horn and you hear a laugh (insert animal laughing photo)
I’m really happy with my 2019 Camry, I got a 4 cylinder naturally aspirated engine that produces 203 horsepower for when I need them. Best thing is that I can go about 520 miles on a full tank.
Also worth noting that new Toyota’s do have direct and port injection. But it will be port injection most of the time since it only uses direct injection under heavier loads and port injection under normal driving conditions.
@@mr.anonymous3103 toyota only using partial gdi is a blessing. As they keep the benifits of gdi and lessen the huge draw back of carbon build up on the valves.
But I haven't heard good things about the 8 speed transmission.
@@jeffreybass5500 For any car manufacturer.
Buy extended transmission insurance 😊
I have been in 2 accidents with my 2015 is250 and got them fixed up and it still drives great. not one problem lol. I can definitely back Scotty up on that for sure. not many cars have these capabilities.
PLOT TWIST: Scotty is really an under cover Lexus/Toyota salesman 😆
no, i can confirm toyotas and lexuses are by far the best cars ever made on average, i've made the mistakes of owning dodges, fords, a few mercedes, bmws, VWs, audis, they were all terrible and the cheapest one out of all i got was almost brand new for 38000€, i finally settled for a lexus for the first time 2 years ago and it was driven 260,000km when i bought it for 14000€, runs like a dream, better than any of the other brands, it has far less noises to worry about despite it seeing some road, the body is built like a tank but it's very lightweight, it's the best i've ever driven for a daily driver, i have never regretted my purchase, not ever
@@coomercommander2554 he’s joking
@SHADOW AMV yes and Mazda, subaru. All for reliability and long term.
@SHADOW AMV and Acura
Lol
Scotty convinced me to buy a Lexus and now he makes a video on the exact one that I bought! 🤯
Juan Barrios I bought an is350 a week before this video came out lol. The 350 is more reliable than the 250, the 250 is gasoline direct injection and the valves tend to get dirty. Sea foam needed for high mileage models.
I just got my 3 day ago and I'm loving it 😍
Michael Frailey what year is your 350?
I think I wanna buy my dad the is 350 (he has a Toyota avensis 1997 so it’ll be a nice upgrade). Do you think it’s good or maybe go for something else
Does it have red interior? I hate that ugly interior
What a beautiful car. V6 naturally aspirated with 205 horsepower. Nice interior. Fancy but not too fancy. Big trunk. Made in japan. This car will run for a long time.
204hp
Shame America doesn't make cars that good
U think it’s affordable as first car cuz I’m only 20 and I been looking at cars lately and been having my eyes on this car
I got one of these in 2017 for 27,000 and you can still find them now for 26,000. Holds its resale value. I’ve driven it 80,000 miles in 3 years and nothing out of normal maintenance. Amazing car !
Scotty, I’ve absolutely loved all your videos. To be honest, I don’t look for your newest vids, but I’ve been subscribed for over a year and every time I decide to get onto CZcams, I know I learn just a little something more about my current car, how to troubleshoot small issues, and what my next car may be. Thanks for all you do!
That’s the dirtiest IS 250 I have ever seen 🤬🤢
Wrecked AND flooded.. Car's only a few years old and it's already been through hell!
It was not in good condition overall. It's also a non F Sport but the front bumper was changed out and F-Sport badges were put on.
Joseph Alvarado how would it not be an f sport
Agreed. That car looks like hell. Inside and out.
He did say that the car was recently in floods
Ive been drivings old Lexus's for years. I pick them up cheap with around 100k miles and drive them to 250k miles. They always make it without major system failures. Try that with a BMW or Mercedes
azspotfree Very smart moves! That's what Scotty would say to do!
I know of an E320 with over 300,000 miles on it no major issues only regular maintenance.
Any kind of old Lexus? Suv?
And after 250k what do you do with it?
Colm Farrel in europe a taxi i rode in had 1 million km , the guy said no big issues, was an e class. Benz in europe has reputation to never break. In usa theyre garbage same with Volkswagen. I thing theyre made in Mexico and use other suppliers for parts
In today's world (2021) it's getting almost impossible to find naturally aspirated engines. Everything and everyone has slapped turbos on things. This really makes me appreciate used cars much more!
I still have my IS300. The inline 6 cylinder wont die!!
How good is lexus is 300h?
long live the 2JZ!
I loved that car when I was a teenager. It was hard to find a one once I was old enough to buy one. Nobody got rid of them.
Same. Mines a 2001 is300. 263,000 miles. It won't die
Me too 300k
That owner needs to take it back into a flood to clean that car again!
MICHAEL GRANT I’m sayin

Ahahahaha
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Watching Scotty's videos makes me realize I've been stupid my whole life. 😔
I agree!
😂😂😂😂

LOL
My Lexus IS has 300k miles on it. Still runs like a champ. Don’t know when it will finally croak, but it’s never leaked any engine oil lol. It’s 💯% Scotty approved. Interior is still like new. And I bet Scotty’s dollar on that one haha.
hows the lexus doing
@@ye6417 at 343,000 miles and still drives like first day I purchased it.
@@michaelboibodas Im getting a 14 250IS on wednesday I am super excited
Do you still have it?
Just bought a rebuilt 2007 IS 250 about a week ago. Aside from the bearings, she is zippy and handles like a dream. Came with much more than I expected and am very happy with it.
And now that I watched this my decision has been solidified.
Thanks once again, Scotty.
How much you put down and how is annual maintenance with insurance ? I only wanna put down nomore than $1500
Scotty tells the truth and simply speaks his mind for which you are free to like him or hate him. I recently returned from a 9 day trip to Dubai. 99.9 percent of the taxis and Uber cars in dubai are camrys and mid sized Lexuses. The I ones I utilised had mileage between 500,000-700,000 km. To me, they all seemed to be running perfectly fine which I found to be pretty amazing. I have no idea how these things can last so long in stop and go traffic that is Dubai. I guess Toyota and Lexus have some seriously talented engineers who take their work extremely seriously.
2015 IS prices mysteriously increased 🧐
@The Most High he mean this video increased the sales of the vechicle there for increasing the demand
Omar Izzat these were already pricey before this video
Vinny T. Stfu
Now all the 2015 IS are sold out on car lots with a 2 month waiting list.
2011 should be under 12k, w/ 90k miles....better than BM trouble you .
Thanks Scott,I bought a 350is fsport 2014 model. Loving every minute in it. Can't wait for the weekend to take her out.
I have a ‘09 and its still running strong, never had an engine or transmission problem, personally thinking. BEST LUXURY car CHEAP car out their 🔥🔥
Marie Martinez I have an 09 with 118,000 miles and it runs perfectly!
Is is RWD or AWD? I'm looking to get one but seems like most used models on the market are AWD.
THATS MY CAR. same colour and year. Best decision ever. Drives like a dream and the wife loves it
i e got a GS350, honestly, best daily driver
What's the price?
I had a black 2014 IS250 F sport on a lease. They had the pry the keys out of my hand on the turn in date. Miss that car still.
Good choice , but every Lexus drives like a dream! My 2006 ES330 has almost 220,000 miles and still drives buttery smooth, feels like a new car!
Skull T Album I’m a die hard Lexus fan but I always love Infiniti too. Beautiful cars.
Toyota and Lexus the best cars ever!
AMG the best or nothing
sir georgio alastrata ha no
Toyota top engineers are the ones who make lexus
Plus Honda and Mazda
Consumers report shows Mazda get ahead of Toyota on reliability in 2019
I literally have a 2014 is250 because of this video. Found one well taken care of with 65k miles.. I still love this car.
Thanks Scotty! Once again I got a great car thanks to you. Just got a used 2015 I250 F Sport today. I had to the chance to get a 2017 !250T Fsport but passed based on the recommendation from your video. I also saved almost 7 grand for a car that was driven less than 9,000 miles a year.
Great review as always Scotty!! Definitely makes me consider one!! Thank you!!
It's on my wishlist for over a half year.
Thanks for confirmation, Scotty!
Picked up a used ‘11 and couldn’t be happier with it
I owned 4 car dealerships and have been in the industry for 15 years to say that this car has been my best daily driver. IS250 Fsport package (not the f sport, ...looks amazing)
What is the difference?
@@the_famous_reply_guy mainly the style of the car. it doesn't looks so much like a Toyota Camry
Good video, I’ve been waiting on a video whit this car!
Do a video with the Acura TLX
I bought a used 2015 IS 250 last year, thrilled to hear so many good comments from Scotty!
I love my is250 I have 2006 awd and I love the sports mode and the new(modern) tech I feel the car was definitely ahead of its time
Got u brother! I got my is250 2007 3 weeks ago and still runs like a beast
Scotty is right!
I bought a mint IS 250 from CarMax. This is a dream car for me. A sporty Lexus. It's not a powerful engine, but it's plenty fast. If you wind it up it'll go fast. My main reasons for buying this car is that I loved its looks, I love the comfort and luxury, and it's extremely reliable. The paint on my car looks brand new (it's a metallic midnight blue, but it's so dark it looks black) and surprisingly enough the windshield doesn't have one single chip in it.
You can also take these cars to a Toyota dealership and they can work on it far cheaper than a Lexus dealer. This gets nearly 30 miles to the gallon. I'm in love with this car!
Great stuff scotty , love your tips and enthusiasm, more power to ya!
Yup, I love my 2008 IS250 V6 RWD with the sport package. The only major thing I’ve had to deal with is the water pump at around 90,000 miles, other than that is just regular maintenance. The second generation,2006-2013, looks great and can be found for around $10,000 or less. That’s pretty cheap when you consider what you’re getting
I also have an 08 350 :)
vvt hose problem? does it have it?
@@pietrostrassmann1585 no, not so far. Struggling with the burning oil though
I have a 2011 IS250 RWD with 140,000 miles. Still purrs like a kitten. All I've done is preventative maintenance with NOTHING change out yet. I have had problems with the audio system panel. I'm basically stuck using BT as the buttons glitch every time I press on one. Other than that it is a great car.
Hello! Looking at a 2008 with 225k miles for my son. Besides the concern re: the high mileage, have you experienced "dash melting" like others on the 2008 model? Thanks in advance!!
You right Scotty had a used gs300 for 4 years. The only thing I had to replace with the warranty that expired already. Was the trunk lift shocks. But the suspension shocks now need replacing. And yes the quality is great.
The interior is bit cramped (and I'm small fella @ 177cm and bit overweight @85-95Kg's) but it's really a masterpiece on wheels.
For a new car, it's extremly expensive for it's size (atleast in EU) but as used car, it's a great choice if you pick one in reasonable condition.
Good to know got a clean 2015 a month ago, I’m in love with it.
Lexus IS250: Scotty Kilmer Approved ✅
Sami Khan
Because he bought it !
Absolutely love mine!
Literally the worst Lexus he could recommend. The small DI engine is the most problematic.
@@tfocal why?
@@d1entertainment989 Because of carbon buildup
Love your enthusiasm! I would like to point out that when you were talking about the electric power steering, you were showing the oil filter housing. Not the steering rack
Thank you Scotty. This the video zi needed. I'm in the market for s new car, and you just helped me make up my mind. I have a 2006 Mazda 6s. I've neglected the maintenance and now I have to get rid of my Mazda and I've been looking for something to replace my little sporty and and I think the IS250 is right up my alley
I've had my 2008 Lexus IS250 for nearly 10 years now and I couldn't be happier with it! Such a great reliable car and fun to drive too!😁👍👍
That’s exciting
i have a 2007 and it burns sm oil
I test drove a 350, it was a lot of fun on the curvy roads and the exhaust note sounded glorious
I really want this one and I love the big “scowling” grille that Lexus has on their new cars.
Me too. I also love them...
Only the F sport black mesh ones.
Thanks for the honesty as always, about to go with a 250 over a 350 since price difference is about 1/3 extra. Anything to look out for when testing?
How about the difference in fuel economy between the is350 and is250
I want to tie Scotty's hands and see if he can still talk🤣😘♥️
Lmao
😂 😂
And his head
I wanna see that !
Shayla Burton No way in hell he could
SCOTTY I WAS WAITING FOR THIS VID!! THANK UUUUUU
My wife has this exact year and model. Bought a two year old used one with minimal mileage. Two years later it's still running great with just under 50k miles.
I just wish they didn't require premium gas. That significant added cost over time.
@@carlhammill5774 I use regular gas for years without any problems

The average 2015 Lexus IS250 on autotrader runs about $26,000. A 5 year old car for $26 grand and we're stupid? If I'm going spend that much money I want the new car smell.

I have a first generation Lexus IS300. I absolutely love this car. I've had to do absolutely nothing to it except oil changes, reg. tune ups and brakes. My exhaust system partially went, so i had to replace the 2nd cat. and the muffler last year. I'm going to have to replace it soon as it has rust issues but it still runs like butter. I'm not looking forward to letting it go. I'll just have to buy another one... a 2015 might do it.
Just bought an is300. I’m really enjoying it thus far.
I could listen all day, because of the enthusiasm!!
YOU-ARE-THE-MAN-SCOTTY. God love you.
I cant get enough of your vids scotty!! Do you have any thoughts on the rx 350 Lexus models??
My 1st Lexus was a '06 IS 250 AWD. In the winter, I would try to make the car spin out, even on ice; the electronics would get the car back in line very quickly. My '18 Legacy AWD, by comparison, turning the wheel through a snow covered turn.....the car goes straight.
Oh boy! There are so many things that can make me stupid. But anyway, love Scotty’s content. Very straightforward and informative.

Got an 08 is250 awd with over 160k miles with no issues at all...bought a 16 is300 awd fsport last year and both cars is just fun to drive.. I expect both cars to last well over 250k miles with no major issues...the only major issue I had was to replace the radiator on the 08 couple of years ago. No rattling, still a smooth ride, car looks like its only a few years old even though it's a 12 year old car.:)

Hi From Costa Rica! Thank you Scotty, just bought a my first Lexus 2015 IS 250 because of your advice 4 months ago. So happy great car!! Dont think I will change brand close from now!
I gotta buy me one of these this year 💪
Good video Scotty, I currently own a 2006 Ford Mustang Gt and you gave me insight about owning a cheap luxury vehicle that should last many miles. I do all the work on my mustang itself. It has 168,000 miles with no service engine lights. I cruise for fun and I maintain it too. I'll keep an eye out for a back up vehicle like the Lexus you mentioned. Thanks!
Hey Scotty, I know you said it’s fuel injected. But the IS250 is actually direct injected. I have a 2011 and the 250’s have a little extra maintenance because of the carbon buildup that can occur. Just a heads up for anyone looking for an IS250.
Scotty is spot on as usual! Love my IS250
I’ve got a ‘13 IS250 and bought it used. At nearly 140k miles it still drives solid without any breakdowns nor rattles and leaks.
wanna know if a car is good?? STILL MADE IN JAPAAAAN!!!
Abner mine was made in san antonio texas... TRD pro baby!
Haaa! FACTS!😏👍
Abner now Supra is made in Austria and i just saw, they offer it in automatic transmission 😕
I guess that means Mazdas are now better than Toyota and Honda then?
Yeah like my BRZ was made in Japan, Gunma province.

How many miles does it have when you purchase it and how much did it cost you ??
@@JulioCNY it had 120k miles when I got it and I bought it for 7k. It’s the All wheel drive version and I got it from a used car dealership, so it could be cheaper if you get it from a private seller or without all wheel drive.

You're character Scotty! 🙂👍 I might buy one... maybe. Can't believe they're that cheap. And made in Japan! 😲
I dig your videos. Thanks for doing them.
Thank you Scott 😊 Been having my 350FSport for 2 years now. Absolutely no promblems. N/A with the f sport intake upgrade and wheels and a bodykit with a tune I'm making 370whp. Not crazy but a bulletproof daily for years to come 😍😍 *ps I bought it for $20k with 40k miles*
does the engine hava vvt hose explode problems?
@@pietrostrassmann1585 not mine. Had it for 3 years and still going. 2nd owner and got it at 40k miles for 20,000$. Currently reads 70k miles and my value is still 23,000$ 😂 Only thing I say is a problem are the wheels and axles. A small upgrade with a squared setup runs smoothly.
@@pietrostrassmann1585 I dog the hell out of this car and the only promblem I’m getting is maybe the battery is low cause I’ve noticed low voltage when running it on acc for 2 minutes minimum it’ll almost shut off. Aslong as vtt hoses go, that happened to me with my old Lexus SC300. That car was a gem, small fix and I was back in the road. Might be a Lexus thing so upgrading it wouldn’t hurt.
@@goatpier7570 how do you know if the voltage is running low? I picked up a 2016 IS300 a month ago. No issues so far!
You had me until “it’s been in a flood”
1:38 “This one is a little mess up because it was in a flood” 😳. ... only Scotty ‘ Love for Lexus can see pass this “ minor” ..... or Lexus are so good, not even a “Minor” flood cant stop a Lexus 😀
I think the last 2 years (2013-2014) Acura TSX was also a great dependable car. Also made in Japan and people still looking to buy a good condition one
i own a 2016 is300, been a year and so far litterally nothing has gone wrong. its comfortable, looks sharp, and i only paid 28k canadian for it. if any of you are interested in these cars, they're fantastic. not perfect, (like the cup holders infuriate me all the time, glove box is small, etc) but as a package its one slick ride.
Had this car 3 years love it!! No problems at all & I haven’t taken the best care given it was my first
im thinking abt getting one for my first car
The filth in that car though... I can't even.
Can't even what, finish your sentence
Picked up a 2013 is350 F sport for $12.4k with only 70k miles on it. Was a steal. All I had to buy was two rims and tires. Love the car.
