- ( www.TFLcar.com ) The 2014 Lexus IS & IS F Sport are a staggering departure for Lexus which has been known for building dependable, luxurious yet somewhat stogy cars. Not any longer. The new 2014 Lexus IS & IS F Sport are a staggering departure for the Luxury division of Toyota with very modern, sporty and even edgy staying. Lexus is no longer just about selling cars to the baby boomer generation but now with the arrival of the new IS the brand is reinventing itself with an entire generation of more sporty cars. Check out this TFLcar video as the new Lexus IS makes a splashy and edgy debut onto the world stage at the Detroit Auto Show.
You guys have unparalleled coverage of the auto show N It's great
That's a great question. I want to see both on the road before I can answer it.
Love the "in your face" look
I got a 2009 IS 250. I think the new one looks so smooth and good.
No Thank You! I have an 07 IS and i still in love with it. :)
omg dude, how was the 2nd day stubble?
Mega1337pker, thanks for the clarification. The ISF is a totally different car. With the V8 displacement and handling package, the Lexus ISF (starting price $61k) is a poor man's Mercedes C63 AMG (priced around $100k++). I was at the Indy car show, and mixed the F-Sport Series that coincides with the other models with this true performance Lexus.
Are the Lexus IS and Toyota Corolla on the same platform? If they are, do you think we should expect a new Corolla soon? I know they showed that Furia concept thingy, but that looked like something completely different...
Isn't there sap pose to be a twin turbo v6 coming to replace the v8 one.
do one on the sti
alex and Mega, thanks for the clarification. Obviously, I like Lexus vehicles, but I probably won't be able to afford one in my time.
The 2013 GS drives well, but the interior is cheaply made, when compared to the older models. I also notice the louder cabin noise, 87.1db to be exact, compared to 78db for the previous model, on the same high way.
That front end should've been on the new GS
Lexus!!
That's not the new IS-F. That's just an IS F Sport.
Devil: "Sign your name here"
Me: " Anything else?"
Devil: "Car is yours, your soul is mine"
Me: "Sucker!"
So they are going this rote. My be Lexus will introduce a smaller car than the IS to compete with the ATS and the 3. This is not going to cut it. It is nice. I see what they are doing. It seems like it will compete more with the GS than the 3.
Based on the intro, where's Chuck Norris ?
At least with the IS F sport, there is a distictively different engine with the V8 that's currently on the present one. Nathan would say that has "CAHONES!" I hope this follows the current formula, and not like the GS and LS which has the firmer suspension and cosmetic appearances, but no major changes or tweaks with the engine.
was lexus on LSD when they made that intro?
it does not have a V8, is F sport, not ISF.@76carmel
3:36 who the fuck decided to press an squeeze air horn in the middle of presentation !?
Reminds me of an Acura TSX.
at least from appearance? :)
When will auto manufacturers learn that overwhelming pyrotechnics, disturbing images on video and loud/wild music CANNOT make up for a car's underwhelming design?
the front looks like a subaru....
This car is so sexy
No matter how much Lexus wants its cars to be sporty, they never will be. When Infiniti first designed the G, they started with a platform that was built for performance: the 350Z. When Lexus makes a car, they use a chassis from a Toyota counterpart and pamper it up. Even if you work on making the platform better you're still left with what is much of a boring and underwhelming Toyota.
2:09 to skip stupid intro, tank me laaateeerrrrrrrr
Maybe that new model have better performance, but the appearance is awfully radical, don't like those sharp angles on every corner and detail... I concurr with the others that it looks ugly!
What?? The GS is not, even remotely, related to the Supra. The GS is on a newer version of the S-Series platform, the old platform used for the original LS400. It was built for a solid but plush ride, nothing more. They use it for the Toyota Crown, Toyota's flagship sedan overseas. As much as I hate the newer BMWs, a Lexus will never compete with a BMW's capabilities. Even the new Lexus interiors, for which they were know for being exemplary, are now ugly and cheaply made.
Expect sales to drop with this redesign... The headlights are so ugly....
dorgas ai...
They finally changed the IS looks nice horrible intro tho , it's older people that buy this u know probable scared have their buyers with that intro
The New GS does not share anything with the Toyota Supra why would you even say that? Why would you want a new car to share anything with a car designed back in 1993? Ridiculous fanboy, be gone with you
1st view !
This car is so over styled its comical, the spindle design front end in general does not work. Lexus has gone from vanilla bland to radically ugly.
Most annoying music ever
disappointing
That car looks like complete ass
