IS stands for Individual Sedan. I know because I work at Lexus so almost every car I know the reason behind the 2 letters. Like ES, executive sedan, GS, grand sedan, NX, nimble crossover, just to name a few
Such a great design. Lexus really came into their own. Love that paint color. This car is the perfect balance of everything from styling to performance and luxury all into a reliable package

I really wish Lexus would upgrade their infotainment system. I am really liking what Audi and BMW are doing with their respective systems. I am also looking forward to Lexus upgrading the standard engine platform they have now, to a turbo set up for their V6. I love Lexus, just wish they would be a bit more current than they are now.
Wait, what are the rear seat locks for? Maybe to prevent them from folding down while passengers are inside? Because it doesnt make sense, if someone breaks into your car, they can just pop the trunk release by the steering wheel haha
I'm getting annoyed by Lexus! I know they say if it's not broken don't fix it, but that 3.5L needs to be replaced with a 3.0t. Also, not even new FSport wheels? Smh. Mercedes is way ahead in my opinion, and I might make a switch.
I get 2017 Is 300 F sport. This is a Comfortable and boring car. Although it's a 4 doors car, you'd better use it as couple, not too much room for the rear seat. Overall I will say it's a pretty good car but boring. If you are looking for a daily use car like me this is your choice. If you are looking for fun car, I will say go for bmw.
The Lexus IS is made in Japan.
Lexus Japanese made cars are the « Swiss watch » of the car Industry.
Man I’m in love with these! The IS series has always been a good fun car to drive and these new ones are no exception.
I just bought a is350F in atomic silver and roija red seats. It gets delivered this week. I’m so stoked!!
How did it turn out?
David Sisung it’s perfect!!!!
Do these have carplay support?
Nehaal Kathuria nope
@@JacK-yb7gu I’m getting one this weekend.
The car in atomic silver with the red interior looks fantastic.
I have that
That best one but the black with red interior is also ridiculous.
Same I have the same combo and love it!
How do you call the gorgeous brownish shiny colour?
I got the same exact one last week

Interesting, although a true car freak should be able to piece some of these things together...
@@PeterOla1122 A car freak 😂😂😂😂
IS actually stands for Intelligent Sport
So you mean LS stand for luxury sedan
I really wish this car was wider it would be so good looking
Such a great design. Lexus really came into their own.
Love that paint color. This car is the perfect balance of everything from styling to performance and luxury all into a reliable package
That mouse controller is WAY better than the newer trackpad. Lexus really messed up thinking the trackpad was an improvement.
I'm saving enough for a downpayment to get a used one! Either from 2014 - 2017 used!
What are you going to put down for a payment? Just wondering because I’m looking to buy one of these as well.
My old Infinti q40 was a blast to drive. I miss that car. I’m looking into something like this.

Step up to the GS 350.
Much nicer interior and larger body with the same engine
I've driven both and find that I prefer the looks of the IS's interior over the GS's. But to each their own I guess.
Which car handles better? Since GS is bigger than IS. Thanks!
Handling depends on what you looking for. IS has a more sportier feel and accelerates faster. ES is a little more refined and heavier on take off.
Valentin Arzola this guy asking about IS vs GS not ES
A shame there is no power folding mirrors on this sedan.
Yeah. That a really important feature no car should be without.
other regions other than north america has folding mirrors like the one i have, not sure why you dont get it there maybe a regulation issue?
Don't let it ruin your day mate.
@@frankmiller95 hahahahh
Looks even better with leds in headlights.
Great work
I’m thinking of getting one of these, but I don’t think the multimedia unit has aged too well. But, then again.. That’s a Toyota for ya

great review
Thanks for the in-depth education
Nice review !
10:31 oooooh the vibrations!!!! 😂 reminds me of the movie a scene in the movie Talageda Nights.
Looking to upgrade my 2016 Accord Coupe V6 for an IS F Sport - however, I don't think there is any Android Auto - which my Accord has
The revised version looks worse to me than the pre refresh, same with the GS, the headlights looked better before
how tuneable is this car? as in adding power?
I have that color too.
Thinking about picking up one for a lease transfer for 8 months @ $430 a pop for 8 months, thoughts?
What’s lease transfer?
Locking rear seats, good idea Toyota. Ooops, I mean Lexus
subscribed!
8-speed automatic gearbox, work (really good),(good) or (👎🏼) ?. 🤔
Good. Better fuel efficiency.. The AWD is a 6-speed automatic. But the RWD is an 8-speed automatic.
Optional F-sport package on the RWD 350, and the wheels aren't even properly staggered?
I love this car if only they can make it more spacious
Yes, that's called a GS, ES or LS. A sports sedan is midsize
@@MrTresto people are stupid
I am a midget LOL, and I find it hard to get into the back seat because the door opening is so narrow. I suggest this car to only singles and couples.
Only 19.5 mpg ? Thats not looking good. Apart from that Lexus is brilliant car :)
Is a performance car not an economy car 🤦🏻♂️
@@2tooful i bought IS250 because we dont have 350 in europe. Brilliant car
@@csereal100 I’m just saying why people complain about fuel economy in a luxury/sport vehicle? It doesn’t make sense lol
@@2tooful on the beginning i thought fuel fonsumption is an issue but now i dont really care
I want to dress like this guy
ok, have at it.
Nice review, should've done it on the 2018 model though.
Acrux thanks but I am more than grateful to get what I get and some people may want to see this model year.
@@everymandriver 2021 and I still want to see the 2017!
the older gen 3is is sooo much nicer imo.

Wade Higgins But Lexus treasures reliability more and we all know that NA engines are easier to maintain
Wade Higgins the next gen IS350 should have the TTV6 from the new LS
Where is the power Lexus ???

Damn thanks I was thinking to trade my 2013 audi A4 for this I was wondering if the lexus would be as fun
I'd take the new Camry sport and save a few grand.
weirdshibainu Not the same car but whatever you think is best for you.
The Lexus ES is more comparable to the Camry. They’re built on the same FWD platform.
Ugly infotainment and dash though... F sport is a bit better
over priced
What is Toyota doing to their styling technicians?
Justin David sleeping with them? I dunno
Not sure but the new Camry XSE looks sexy
Gs350 RWD Fsport > this is350
Waw 😱😱😱
I'll take the Camry over this for looks and price......... Really dislike the swirl on rocker that leads under rear taillight..........
No one cares that you want a damn Camry Lol.
Was thinking of getting this car ... But after review ... It's not for me .... It looks more like a woman vehicle ....
Pretty insecure, huh?
@@godfatherNYC Definitely insecure.
Boy is that front end ugly.
The interior is ugly in my opinion.
Says you and no one else.
