I do like your reviews man. Simple, direct, informative yet honest. Hope you can do a review of the new Lexus GS200t 2016 as well. Keep up the good work!
I just bought the 2016 IS 200t F Sport and absolutely love it. 38,000 miles. Immaculate condition. Fun to drive, looks fantastic. Gas mileage is not great. Other than that, no complaints.
Nice video. I just bought this car and so far very happy with it. Im coming from a 12 year 2004 TSX Acura with mods. Question for you. Do you think its work doing to f sport intake and exhaust? or any intake part. Would love to hear the Turbo a bit more and of course a louder exhaust with a deeper throatier sound. Any recommendations? thank you
I wish they would've updated the exterior or interior to match the new engine. It was due for a refresh anyway and this would've been the perfect timing to advertise to new buyers to the car and brand. It wouldn't have to be drastic, just subtle changes that differentiate then is250 vs this and especially vs the is350..
Great review! Do you plan on reviewing the 2016 GS 350 F Sport AWD? Im curious to hear your thoughts in comparison to the 2014 GS 350 F Sport that you reviewed.
I have a 2016 is 200t. In real world driving, it’s an awesome car! There is a bit of turbo lag. Fine. Don’t race it! It drives smooth. Handles well. Feels luxurious. Sporty enough. Handles rain & snow with no problems. Mileage is better than my old 6-cylinder BMW 128i. This is not a BMW but clearly close enough.
Yet another great review Sam...question...what is that annoying green light that kept flashing on the left side of the instrument cluster as you were in the canyons?
I drive this of 2017 model And loved this car Except it doestnt have apple car play And no wireless charging And back seat are not comfort like mer glc Bt overall car is very good Hopefully next year I ll Upgrade to nx300 hybrid Cuz fuel is getting higher and higher in dubai
Great review! I have been looking at either a 2016 is 200t or the is 300 I like the idea of all wheel drive and the v6 in the 300 but have a feeling a turbocharged 4cyl could be alot of fun. Any suggestions? And does Lexus do well in the heat I live in phx?
+Show Me What I Need To Know We didn't think so at all. With drive-by-wire throttles, automatic transmissions, and traction control all in line against you, there is little 1st to 2nd gear feel between this and the V6.
I've watched nearly 20 Lexus IS 200T turbo reviews, this one is the best one yet.
This one and savagegeese, mostly everyone else likes to hate on this car because its a 2.0 turbo base engine when in reality this car is great

+Ae Silvestre Thank you. And wee hope to get a GS 200t in our local press fleet this year.
You honestly deserve more views man!

What is your mpg?
Yeah whats the real world MPGs
really bad like 19-20 mpg, the turbo burns like V6 in city driving but is really good on the highway like a I4
@@travisl1759 Still waaay better then my truck
@@Daniel-Maniel what engine is your truck and how much do you get?
You havent said nothing about turbo lag ! Thats the biggest difference between this and IS350
Still nice car :)
You look like a cross between Common and Jason Kidd. Great review.
I don't think 28 mpg (10l/100km) is good for this car. It's strange to why it's so high in a 2L 4cyl, maybe it's running too rich or car is too heavy?
Too heavy, 3600lbs almost
This review made me feel like watching a classic auto infomercial with a bit of humor.

Just got the car. Any recommendations for intake? I want to hear the turbo a bit louder. And why would it be difficult to mod this car?

+Maurice Lyle Thank you! We tested a 2014 model, near mechanically identical: ua-cam.com/video/RkgXcu1YVj8/v-deo.html
I wonder how it is in snow and rain . Looks great , also I enjoy your reviews !

+xTouragx ECO. And thank you!
@@TestDrivenTV I turned it off a few months into owning it. It's annoying and pointless. A small thing really.
Very good and informative review. Thank you.
I drive this of 2017 model
And loved this car
Except it doestnt have apple car play
And no wireless charging
And back seat are not comfort like mer glc
Bt overall car is very good
Hopefully next year

Clancy O is200t has a bit of turbo lag but not if you manually switch. Pretty fun car to drive. Is200t owner here
@@IvanLoss thanks for responding! How is the is 200t as far as reliability? Have you had any issues?I would be using it as the daily driver.
If u can somehow tune the turbo
First person to ever like the infotainment, i think.
Good review
Please do a gs450 h test drive.
Jason Kidd?
excellent review ..... thx
Isn't the 4cyl horribly lethargic off the line?
+Show Me What I Need To Know We didn't think so at all. With drive-by-wire throttles, automatic transmissions, and traction control all in line against you, there is little 1st to 2nd gear feel between this and the V6.
What is the name of that road in AZ that you are driving on?
Whitch is better, this or is250 v6 ?:)
i think this. it has an 8-speed auto
you should of driven without traction control for a little while.
soooooooo, this or 2015 350? anyone?
IS350
I wish it came with a manual.
It does come with a manual.
seats wrapped in NuLuxe*, not the same as real leather
Seats are very nice.
Fuel consumption looks terrible.other than this ,it's a good car but I won't be buying one ..
Acura interior quality is so cheap compared to Lexus
Fake leather! Nuxe is garbage. Only Audi still delivers real leather seating on all trims
