I use to have that phone with my IS 250 and it wouldnt auto connect with the car. Its the phones problem not the car, i recently just bought a samsung slider and works just perfect

I am interested in getting this mod done to my car... Does anyone know of any good sites to order these from, i really want the best deal. I just want them for the front, and does anyone know if this mod is possible on an IS 250 w/o the luxury package. thanks

ya i experience that same feeling, when u punch it, it takes a second and than starts to accelerate, i wonder if its like that with the 350 as well... try it in the semi manual... it seems more responsive to me a little..

I know that BMW has a whole website dedicated to small mods for their cars. Are there any good websites out there for small mods for the lexus is? Any feedback would be great...

ya most spoilers are to high and block the brake light, but because the lexus is spoiler is more of a lip, it is low enough where the other drivers can still see the brakelight

Just the way I like it Ya i like it darker to, im worried that 20 might be to dark, but i guess ill do 38%, even though its not that dark, does it still make the car look way nicer? let me know

No spoiler, but is black with tint. Cool side marker lights. ya does anyone know of a good site to order side marker lights? easy to istall? any info would be great, thanls later

No spoiler, but is black with tint. hey man thanks a lot for the pictures, what level of tint is on the front and back? thanks that would be great...

does anyone have pictures of a black IS with a window tint and/ or rear spoiler? any pictures would be helpful. thanks..

I am interested in getting an intake and exhaust.. Do these void your warranty? I know replacing the headers void the warranty but do these ?

Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any such feature on the IS (nor have I read about one). But if its not too far off topic, can you tell me more about the BMW feature? It sounds like you're describing an exhaust "cut-out". I didn't know BMW's had this either. Is it a stock feature or possibly an aftermarket add-on? Lastly, is it located before the muffler or on the muffler? I will say that cut-out's are typically absurdly loud (and at all RPM's, not just idle), so perhaps what you're referring to is some sort of resonator for certain frequencies. Kind of makes me think of the soup can mufflers (except I haven't seen one on any BMW's...not that it hasn't been done!). Man im not sure if i am explaining it to you right, since my friend has the 335 with the sports package... What he told me is that it has something to do with the muffler, and how a valve was closed at idle and at low rpms by unplugging the valve [something like that] it is always open therefore creates more noise...

the 250 is more like 7.5 0 - 60, while the 350 is 5.5 0 - 60... the 350 is much quicker in all terms, there is no comparison, if you arent going for complete speed and just want a little sportiness the 250 is fine

I know that on the Bmw 3 series there is a way to open a valve under the exhaust to make it louder at low RPM's and at idle. I realized that the IS 250 has ABSOLUTELY NO SOUND that comes out of the exhaust [just wind].. is there anyway to create more sound other than installing a new exhaust system? any small mods? thanks...

I agree with everyone. Go for the IS 350 if you want speed. If for some wierd reason you cant you could make the IS 250 faster by getting a intake, exhaust system, a chip, somehow a turbo and i have no idea , just go for the 350, that car is a beast...

Ya i created that same post regarding the same topic. How come lexus doesnt turn it on when people by their car?

my thoughts exactly :) hahahah, ya does the 350 stand a chance against the 335, someone was telling me that when the 335 spun out, the 350 beat it...

Check this website: http://store.goldrushplating.com/leis25empa.html The emblem package in the lower left (shown in gold, but also comes in black pearl) might be what you're looking for. Warning: it ain't cheap! Wow that is exactly what i am looking for, thanks so much, only problem is im not going to spend that much for it though. Im getting a window tint soon though for 170, not a bad deal eh?

O dont even worry about that, you can set the colored rings to go off at anytime. The standard set is for the orange to go off at 75 or 80, and the red goes off at 100, its more to just remind you of your speed, it doesnt mean your going to fast for the car...

I have started to see a different color emblem on the lexus is 250. I love the one that is faded into a dark grey or something. It looks so nice on the black IS. Does anyone know a site to order this on? or where to buy it?... If you have any information please let me know

well small mods that you can do are getting a new intake and exhaust system. This will increase your horsepower and make it sound nicer, but your performance still wont increase that much. Dyno it? Do some research and try to find a chip for it.

wow man thanks so much... i have a black one as well... can you please send me a picture because i am trying to see if 35% is enough. thanks I gotta agreed with Rcace, 35% is the way to go. I was about tint my is250 all around include both front windows, but saving up to pay for the loan. Call around to your local tint shop, they shouold be charging roughly $260 or higher. If less, Wooow wat a deal... Good Luck O wow 260 thats so expensive. I found this place that does it for 170, and i said wow what a great deal, i end up finding another great deal for 145... I might do the 170 place just because two of my friends went there and both of their cars werent damaged.

O well if you dont have the special Mark Levingson [something like that] package then you cant play dvds... its only for the lexus is 350 with the luxury package. Ya o and about the tint doesnt it get darker the smaller the number gets like 70 being hte lightest, and 5 being the darkest? Im wondering if 35 is dark enough in your opinion? thanks

wow man thanks so much... i have a black one as well... can you please send me a picture because i am trying to see if 35% is enough. thanks

I was interested in getting a window tint on my 2007 Lexus IS 250. I feel it will make the car look very nice. I am wondering if you need a certain kind of tint in order to avoid interfering with the navigation signal, and the comfort access [key]... Let me know if you need a certain type of tint? Thanks. p.s. if you have any pictures of a tint send please

ya my friend ended up having an ebay account and he got it for me, hopefully its good, i talked to the seller and he has it himself and says its good Cheers :) I just installed the redout material on my lights today... This is the best, cheapest, and easiest way to make your car look nice. I recomend it to anyone because for some reason it makes the car so much nicer. You might want to order to sets of the material, just in case one doesnt install properly, or one is destroyed after a few years... ill have pictures soon
