it looks like the IS 250 will not get HID lights in an effort to keep costs down. You will be able to get the 350 w/out the nav and stay under $40k

Great Brochure, Mr LEX. Thank you.

Although I have a question, I could not find the fuel compensation for IS 250 and IS 350.

Do you know how many mpg they both go for. city/highway

Thanks,

Nick

Is that car on the left Glacier Frost Mica? I heard it was one to stay away from but I really like the color in the pictures I've seen.

IS250=205 HP/185 TQ :glare:

That's ashame for $30K+. I understand that you get Lexus world class luxury, but isn't it a "sports sedan"? You better like going slow. Anyone know the curb weight of the 250?

If you applied the new SAE ratings to the IS300 it would be about the same HP. A BMW 325 is rated at 215 HP.

Manufacturers suggested retail price (MSRP) is $29,990 for the IS 250 rear-wheel drive with the six-speed manual transmission.

The IS 250 rear-wheel drive with six-speed sequential automatic transmission MSRP is $31,160 and includes Formula One- inspired steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters. The IS 250 all-wheel drive MSRP is $34,285 and, in addition to the above features, includes a perforated leather-trimmed interior upgrade with heated and ventilated front seats and wood trim.

The IS 350, the fastest sport sedan in the near luxury car segment, MSRP is $35,440. Its highly tuned 3.5-liter engine delivers a best-in-class 306 horsepower and 277 lb.-ft. of torque, resulting in the quickest zero-to-60 mph time of any competitor sport sedan.
