    My Girlfriend has owned this car, not the Fsport model though, for about 2 years now. I know there are other brands that have some more bells and whistles but I have to say we both absolutely love this car. For one it is perfect for her. They're both small and pretty and have great lines. It runs great and for a small 4 cyl with a turbo it'll move. Maybe not as well through top end as some competitors but it also gets crazy gas mileage. Easily 500 miles to a tank on the highway, without even trying. It's small but one of the most comfortable cars I've ever driven. I've been really impressed. The only thing I really hate is the bluetooth. If you are moving at all it won't let you connect to it. Which is odd. You can do everything else on the menu except that. Otherwise I absolutely love the car.

Looks unreal in person. Great attention to detail and very well built. Best part is that I don't have to worry about a dead water pump or VANOS issues that my BMW had

  • @CarlosVernier
    @CarlosVernier 8 років тому +2

    If you are looking for quick performance, do not buy this car. This car is slow. A Scion accelerates faster than this Lexus 200t. The car gets faster until the turbo kicks in, but for that you have to wait few seconds. Few seconds, feel like years when you need a quick acceleration car.

    Hey Kyle ! I'm from France and I want to tell you that my father has a 2015 IS 300h Business Package since October 19, 2015 ! He bought this car because his ex-2007 Nissan Qashqai 1.5 dCi (Diesel engine) was about to reach 100 000 kilometers (62 137 miles) and it was 8 years old. It's also because my mother's ex-2010 Volkswagen Polo (compact car) 1.6 TDI (wich is also a Diesel engine) was not useful anymore...
    Everyone I know like this car. 😉 Really, for the IS 300h, I rate it ***** ! 😀

Upgraded from a 2015 Toyota Camry XSE V6 & it feels much more solid & much better in every way. These vehicles aren't going for much money in the used car market right now cause most people want SUV's/Crossovers.

    • @JakeFromLateFarm
      @JakeFromLateFarm 8 років тому +5

      If I remember correctly, the 250s were prone to excessive carbon build up inside the engine, which would cause drivability issues (rough idle, shuddering, stalling etc.) It might not sound like a big deal, but from what I hear just poking around the forums, it's an awfully expensive issue to service and even after being serviced, nothing is really stopping the carbon from building back up again, so eventually you'd be in the same predicament as before. Personally I would steer clear of the IS250.

I know you probably have to be asked to review the cars, but I didn't know how it worked. I look at you videos everyday, I think you are great at reviewing cars. I love all of your videos!

    Nice review Kyle!
    I agree with the decision that Lexus made to introduce a new trim-level for the IS because as you pointed out, the Audi A4, Cadillac ATS, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and BMW 3 Series even introduced their own turbo-charged 4 cylinder engines before Lexus did. And with those engine offerings, fuel economy is even for sure bound to play a big role in this segment as well.
    On a different note, since you now have the Borla S-type exhaust installed on your Dodge Charger, do you plan on taking it on the racetrack again as well as filming a video on it?

      It's a Lexus it will last forever. 250 is a trash engine. There's a reason why I got the 350

    Hey Kyle, I don't know if u know, but there's a guy named Automoho on UA-cam straight up ripping off your style. Not just your format but also your content. Since u started uploading "Pure Sound" videos, the guy also starts his own "Sound" segment lol.

    I saw about six of these lined up together outside a Lexus dealer recently, front end to the kerb. Looked like a recent model toyota had hooked up with a front-end loader and they'd popped out a litter of very homely babies. Not saying anything about interior or performance, but on styling - what were they thinking?

    Much-needed power upgrade, now competitive for the lower engines. Probably the best ride-handling suspension tuning in the class, without need for an adjustable suspension. Turbo exhaust sounds like crap, which all turbos do, so an exhaust change may be useless or needed, depending on what they do at the dealer. I would target $40k for the 200t and $45k for the 350.

    I'm debating on getting a Lexus F Sport or an Audi A7. I'm an owner of an IS250 and like the car, but I think the F Sport is attractive, but geared towards 20 somethings. The A7 is attractive and classy at the same time.

    I like how the Lexus develops their "razor-sharp edge" design and transfer it to their product line, especially the new RX. Nothing comparable can be find on market, car looks futuristic and definitely outstrips it time. New 2016 RX looks more aggressive and eye-catching rather than previous model. There is no problems with design at all. But technically they have removed atmosphere V6 2.5 engine from IS and replaced it with this 4 cylinder engine with turbine. Firstly the V6 gives a higher endurance of life and with this engine car can pass more mileage rather than normal 4 cylinder engine's. Turbine will loose it's power on approximate 100000KM, which requires it change. I highly disagree that Lexus now follows German cars way, for example BMW, Mercedes sets to their vehicles engines with very small volume (1.2,1.6, 1.8) but installs a turbine, so that HP outcome will match to the power of V6 engine, this is not lifelong solution as such engines will require a replacement on 200000-250000KM and turbine will loose all it's power. Japanese car as an American cars initially followed to the concept of integrating large volume engines just remember Toyota Camry XV20-XV30 there were plenty of V6 3.0, V6 3.5 engines. That types of engines can smoothly run upt 300-350000KM until it requires full maintenance or replacement. So I am completely against that Lexus started to follow German cars concept. Same goes to RX, in previous generation in base model with FWD it had a Toyota's 2.7 4 cylinder engine, those engine was enough to accelerate RX's body and provided decent dynamics, now at new RX200t they have placed turbine 2.0 engine, for the first 80-90000KM the resource of turbine would be enough to provide dynamics for RX's heavy body but after turbine will require a replacement and in addition the RX's heavy body causes load to 2.0 engine. So it is inappropriate to put such low engines in SUV's. Hope that Toyota would stay to it's concept of V and atmosphere cylinder engines and will never place a turbine.

      +ASUS Republic of Gamers (Asus G750 ROG) Канал I believe with everything you say but they want the cars sold first so they can even reach the 250KM mark. I'm sure right now its a big thing to turbo charge a car but that's the only thing to do to get good gas mileage and MPG.

      to start the engine you have to press the brakes and click the start button but to just turn on the power just click the button with out pressing the brake

  • @jamesmolyneux2743
    @jamesmolyneux2743 9 років тому

    Why are the cars that you review always petrol and never diesel? Just wondering, diesels are super common over here in the UK. Like with your 640d you rented, it was special because it was diesel.

    • @Kevin_10225
      @Kevin_10225 9 років тому

      In the US, everyone prefers gas, especially because its cheaper than diesel, and many people still have the perception that diesels are dirty. The most common vehicle you will find with diesel engines are probably the HD pick up trucks and the large trucks you call lorries in the UK.

    • @juliobello4561
      @juliobello4561 9 років тому

      Also I live in the USA many people hate the smell of diesel and the sound of Diesel engine and I agree on that I hate the cracking noise but I have my respects to Diesel engines good a lot of power they have

    • @Kevin_10225
      @Kevin_10225 9 років тому

      I actually like the diesel engine better. Where I live, diesel is way cheaper than gas, and overall, diesels are more efficient and have a longer fuel range than gas equivalents. And i like the sound of a heavy duty diesel engine. Sounds powerful :P

    • @KeiDoesManyThings
      @KeiDoesManyThings 8 років тому

      It depends on where you are. Diesel can be a bit more expensive than regular gas, but nobody takes into account that the other two grades above regular are more expensive than diesel. It's all about the perception on diesel, which most people don't really like diesels.
      I've seen a 3 series diesel and I was shocked. I've never seen many of them. Diesels are kinda special for the limited numbers they come in.
