I got bored of driving my 2010 Honda Insight for 8 years and already has 180k miles with no issues just regular maintenance and I want something newer and reliable and I think this is the perfect car for me
Pretty car for sure ! Bravo Lexus. When I first saw it i wasn't in love either but then it grew on me and in person it just a very great pretty car looks The Motor is a 2GR is a heavily unrated motor. Its one of the best V6 motors ever made. It was even tested getting to 60 mph in 4.8 seconds and running a quarter mile in 13.2. Back in 2006 when the engine debated it out ran the V8 Audi S4. Its so aggressive to the point where it feels like it has more then 306hp. The engine is so good Lexus is STILL running it since it debuted in 2006. The 3 series has under gone about 3 different engines in the same time span each having issues with turbos and etc. Its one of the best engines on the market that files under the radar. Great motor. Only downside to it is not a huge aftermarket support so your not gonna get crazy power out of it because the Toyota ECU is locked down. This car is a great buy. Theres a reason it has won comparisons its just a great and most important reliable product. Its good to watch a review of a normal person.
Excellent video dude. I love it that you took a decent amount of time to put the pedal to the metal and had the camera pointed out to the street instead of just having the camera pointed to yourself instead like other guys do in their video. However, I don't think the car seems that fast because the trees never became a blur but maybe the owner wasn't going as fast as I think that he was? Good video overall though.
Thanks man! As far as why it didn't look like we were going all that fast, we weren't. This is a public road with lots of blind corners...not worth the risk.
Such a nice car! It looks aggressive and has is own presence on the road. I'm glad they arent popular. The interior is superb and I think they should use Casio or Seiko to make an independent solar power radio controlled watch in the dash! Make luxury even more.
I was choosing between this exact car and a 2014 Mercedes benz c300, and as you can tell by my profile pic I chose the benz but damn this is a beautiful car! Kinda regret not choosing the Lexus.
man ... wish the price of a IS350 here in Asia is about 55K with 20K miles .. used, found one .. not sure If I wanna pay that price for a 2014:) hella expensive here. Nice Review man
lexus IS 350 F Sport requires different tires on front 225 and back 255 (different widths). Can it harm tires if 225 are put in rear as well as front. Told that the rear tires will not wear well and not hold the required psi because of different rim width
does anyone know the difference between 2014 vs 2015 is 350 f sport? in my area there is a huge price difference with the same color car, km and package. only difference i know is that the 2014 doesnt have the ventilated seats and the f sport badge on the trunk, was wondering if anyone knows what other differences? also the 2014 is 350 for sale in my area has heated steering wheel, as i heard the 2014 model does not come with it i find this very odd.
This is going to be my next car, I am sick of german cars breaking down on me. I always had a Honda, but got a bmw 335i 2013 and Audi A4 2011 manual that’s the reason I got it. Always had Honda’s and Acura before I made the switch. Can someone explain to me what the difference is between the 250,300,350 I definitely want an awd IS. Also do any of the Lexus have the N,E,S,W on the rear view minor like the Audi’s have and bmw ?
HotSizzleTV 250 same body same interior 2.5 v6 with 204 hp 300 I think it’s an older version like 200ish The is350 is what you see in this video bigger v6 from the 250 306 hp
Im well over 100k mileage on my 2014. Other than routine oil changes NOT ONE issue. Nothing. Reliable is an under statement.
Kras 4 i am looking to buy one 2014 f sport w 50,000 under 20k ??? Would you recommend
@@jimenez1alejandro definitely
His vedio from where?
I have mine 2014 is350awd for 3 years now. :) only regular maintenance. knock on wood !!!! this thing is awesome!!!
Have any of you guys done a transmission fluid change? Or drain and fill?

+Toyota4Life Couldn't agree more! Toyota/Lexus really hit it out of the park with this one.

the only thing I hated about it is the cup holder..is a lil further back, for driver and passenger. I own a 2016 is350f, I really liked alot..
Agree!!!
Finally watching this.... it's so weird not seeing an IS250/350 without an AWD badge. Beautiful car, though!
+ACCORDingtoTom It's such a blast to drive this thing! I'd be very interested to see how the AWD affects the car.
I wish I had a rwd. So I had to settle for awd

im deciding between the 2 which one do you recommend? does the mb have a lot of maintenance
is that saabkyle04 driving???? he looks different.
Kidding, but great review!
+thecarexpert21 Lol no definitely not SK04. But thanks!
amazing car and super reliable

mpd if it has a heated steering wheel it’s not a 2014
do u know that guy also great video like always thanks
+Young Savage Yep I know him!
Why does it sound like a diesel from the outside?
"The ticking sound is the High pressure fuel injectors, making it to run efficiently." Thats what HowToCarGuys said on the other is 350 f sport video
we all know its mine :)
+brorowcarwiz obvi
RCGCarReviews is it okay to drive sport mode on Automatic?
What camera is this? Looks nice
Base model Sony Handycam!
Hey I drove this exact car! :P
+TJC450 In Eco mode?
+RCGCarReviews I honestly don't recall.
That's a nice car, I really like it
+RAJohnson713 As do I! It's an absolute blast to drive
Side profile looks good, but that grille is just too big. It would look better on a big SUV.
+ramivalencia It looks far more proportional in person.
is that the techdude guy?
I know!!!!
I know whose car that is!!!! It's not Brooks'. I know that.

The is350 is what you see in this video bigger v6 from the 250
306 hp
Gio Trujillo thank you for this. So are the 350 are only the awd models or can I get a 200 with awd and 250 ?
terrible camera placement on the test drive
eh i think a Versa is better ;)
+MrMK94 Oh for SURE.
Wheels. Not rims. I hate when people say "rims"
They are rims tho
like is he a neighbor or uncle or something
+Young Savage He's a friend who also happens to have his own CZcams channel
Hey, I know whose car that is!!!
