Tell them to do that bulletin. It's the felt in the dash stuff. It totally took away the rattle in my dash!! They tell me they did the service bulletin but that didn't solve the problem. Very vexing. I paid around $45k for this car fully loaded, and I expect better. Heck, they sell these cars on being quiet! From what I've been told, this is a common problem with this new body style. Not good...

My IS350 is in the shop RIGHT NOW for the 4th time trying to fix a rattle in the dash, and I have just over 3k miles. I'm so mad right now. They keep saying "we think we fixed it" and the damn thing rattles before I get home. :( I'm VERY unimpressed with Lexus at this point. When I test drove it I heard the rattle and when I told my sales rep he said "a Lexus doesn't rattle". BS. Then he said if it did they would fix it, but here I am with a loaner for the 4th time in month. :chairshot:

I certainly didn't mean to diss any 250 owners. It's just that I was stunned at the difference between the two cars.

HUGE! There is simply no comparison. It sort of reminds me of a 94 Infinity G20 that I had. That was a nice car, but completely gutless. The IS 250 was REALLY dissapointing. It also didn't have many features on it so I found it hard to believe it was even a similar car to my 350. I was so glad to get mine back!

I figured I had a page up with pictures already, I might as well point people to it. :P Thanks! :D They gave me an IS 250 today for a loaner while they add the XM and tint. Man, I miss my car already!

I'm a proud new owner of an 06 Lexus IS 350. It's got the factory ground effects and aftermarket MOMO wheels. It's going in for window tint tomorrow. You can see more pix here: http://www.jamesfoxall.com/lexusis350.aspx :)
