  1. Absolutely true. I got one to drive the last time my IS 250 was in for service. It is a pretty quick little SUV. Here's what Edmunds has on the RX350: Performance Acceleration (0-60 mph): 7.3 sec. Base Number of Cylinders: 6 Base Engine Size: 3.5 liters Base Engine Type: V6 Horsepower: 270 hp Max Horsepower: 6200 rpm Torque: 251 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 4700 rpm Maximum Payload: 1399 lbs. Maximum Towing Capacity: 3500 lbs. Drive Type: FWD Turning Circle: 37.4 ft. ... and on the IS250: Performance Acceleration (0-60 mph): 7.9 sec. Base Number of Cylinders: 6 Base Engine Size: 2.5 liters Base Engine Type: V6 Horsepower: 204 hp Max Horsepower: 6400 rpm Torque: 185 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 4800 rpm Drive Type: RWD Turning Circle: 33.5 ft. WELL THEN WHY THE **** CAN'T THEY MAKE THE IS250 FASTER! GEEZ thats kind of a rip off <_<
  2. dudes i got an rx330 rental car and it seems faster than the is250 is it true? dang that would suck
  3. dude hondas are reliable. but ya the dealer fixed it like it was nothin.
  4. dude, nobody has that feature but you. you are on your own. im jealous though... <_<
  5. I think you just like writing "*BLEEP*"!!!!!! Hasn't Bleep discussed this before????? The rattles or the Bleep? IM TAKING IT TO THE DEALER TOMORROW. i mean hondas dont even rattle what a joke.
  6. U MUST HAVE THE NAV. THE CAR IS INCOMPLETE WITHOUT IT B/C U ARE ABLE TO CONTROL A/C AND EVERYTHING ON A TOUCH SCREEN WHICH IS SICK! DONT get the 350 i have a friend who got it and he hates it b/c he said in stop and go traffic he always feels like vomiting b/c he's thrown back and forth from stopping and accelerating at the stop lights satellite radio sucks i paid a butt load im not gonna lie. no where near invoice bro AND BTW THE LUX PACKAGE IS CURSED! I DID AN EARLIER POSTING ON IT AND IT TURNED OUT TO BE TRUE!
  7. help! its rattling! sounds like drivers side air conditioning odometer area
  8. I agree. Double check your tire pressure before and wouldn't hurt during the trip as well. I did a quick calculation: If you get 30 MPG (I'm guessing that's normal for 60 mph) you will use approximately 60.5 gallons. If you get 25 MPG (Again, guessing that's normal for 75 mph) you will use approximately 72.7 gallons. With gas averaging at $4.50 a gallon, you would save about $54.51 over the entire trip. However, it would take you an additional 6 hours... Is your time worth more than $9.00 an hour?!? I think I'd spend the additional cash to get there early. After a trip like that you will probably be suffering from cabin fever. Note: This assumes the mileage from Vegas to Birmingham is 1,817 (per mapquest) and I have made assumptions on MPH and gas prices. You're mileage may vary! dude u rock. lexuses dont break often do they? how can i prevent a flat tire?
  9. im driving to vegas from birmingham, alabama and i need some tips... how can i conserve gas? what do i need to check in the car b4 i go? do u think it'll be reliable enough or should i go rental car?
  10. its super glued together so ya it'll hold up its made from really thick cardboard. i use the aux line but i dont have to take the ipod out to control it i just drive and click directly on the ipod.
  11. the outside is the back of a mouse pad. i glued it on cardboard. the white junk is dust/dirt that needs to be cleaned off. im using the aux and wire runs from the arm rest (still able to close the arm rest) down under my seat from the back, under the all weather floor mats and comes back up to the ipod. its not in the pic but it looks very discreet cant even see it when i put it.
  12. check it out!!! not bad huh? ;) oh and i got a custom frame!! love it haha!
  13. so can i track my car with the gps system? any cool tricks i can do with it?
  14. i mean so thats my point DUH lexus has the capability of making perfect auto tilt mirrors that work every single time. it's lexus. but what im saying is that since they make so few and its out of the norm to find one and its so rare that they mess up on many of them b/c its not going through the standard assembly line. but ya if they made more with the lux package and if i didnt hear so many complaints i'd get one in a jiffy. lexus rocks. period.
  15. I have an IS 250 that is fully loaded with nav, wood, the works. but i dont have the lux package or ML with the rear sunshade, auto steering wheel, mem seats, etc i have heard DISASTER stories from people like: 1. "My steering will rattles like there's a broken part in it" (this guy has the automatic steering wheel that comes with lux package) 2. "My ML spits out my discs" or "My ML's sound goes off randomly" 3. "I had to replace my windshield b/c of a rock chip that turned into a crack and b/c of my automatic windshield wipers it costs a bajillion dollars" etc..etc..etc.. SO what I am thinking is that since Lexus makes SOOOOO few IS's with the lux package and ML they make mistakes with many of them... i think i feel blessed i couldnt find an IS with the lux/ML
  16. dude that head unit looks kinda cheap no offense. the OEM head unit matches seamlessly with the dash. im sorry dude but when i think of non-oem head units i think of junk honda civics. def no lexus.
  17. dude i hate to burst ure bubble u dont have ML
  18. LOL!!! sooo true happens all the time!
  19. how can i install a USB drive in my 08 is 250? i know some cars like the c class have a usb drive and all u have to do is plug in your pen drive to listen to music
  20. ok dude the 350 has too much power. when i drive in the city from red light to red light i feel like throwing up. when i accelerate i get thrown back into my seat...and when i brake i fly forward into my steering wheeling... the 350 is good for racing and off the light starts....ASSUMING theres not another red light close coming. 250 is more realistic for city and day to day commute.
  21. Would i get an is without nav? 2 words dude no way
  22. You probably found those here: Halos for ISxxx I was just looking at that yesterday. It's kinda cool, but aside from what Gaugster said about the copy factor, it doesn't make sense to me to risk permanent damage on lights that are so expensive to replace. ya dude why would you copy a bmw...its degrading
