any news, pics, articles, specs on the 2008 models? when's the release date? and is it worth waiting for or should i buy the 07 model now?

 

id save some money and get a deal on an 07 . . . just my 2 cents

 

Same car, maybe a few minor changes such as color or package options, or a new button here and there, and (of course) about 3% markup from the '07 (which is about $1000). The '08 will most likely arrive by October/November '07.

Do you need a car now? I don't think the '08 is worth waiting for, but I would expect something a little refurbished for the '09 model year, such as new headlights, taillights, and perhaps a body kit.

 

I want those new buttons!

 

unless there's a major difference between the two, otherwise wait for 08 to get a 07 (they will give you a even better deal by then) if you are not in a hurry.....

 

Will it be upgraded to an IS300 instead of IS250? I'd like to think thats the biggest change they need (and keep the manual tranny)

 

So if I special order an IS350 now, dealer says it will arrive sometime in Aug and would be an 07 model. Dealer also told me today that I can place my special order and request an 08 IS350 and it would arrive in Sept. Does this sound right? Or would the 08 really be here in Oct or Nov. I wonder if even the general manager would know this answer? sometimes it's hard to know if the saleguy really knows or is just pretending to know.

What I don't understand is what if I order an 08 and there is some kind of option that becomes available on the 08's but it's not on my special order form how does that work ordering something that you don't even know what changes there might be? Worst yet what if I order an 08 IS350 in a certain color and Lexus decides to discontinue that color for 08? That would be uncool knowing I could have gotton that color as an 07 by ordering now and getting it in Aug. Not sure if I should order an 07 or an 08 now.

 

I'd definitely wait and see what changes the 2008 will bring... And if there will be any new options... Then you can make your decision... To make a guess at what changes the 2008 will offer is gambling...

 

has anyone heard anything about the 2008 IS350? And no I am not talking about the IS-F.

 

yes, the IS line will continue. hahahahahaha...

 

Did you know that Club Lexus gives out free toasters to users who use the search feature the most?

 

Really a free toaster but I would rather have a Club Lexus sticker.

 

i have an allergy to bread, therefore, i don't use the search feature very much.

Anyway, I did a serach and did not locate a specific thread that covered the topic.

 

I like to have one of those sticker on front and back wind shields.That make me feel like extra 10 horses to the wheels. LOL

 

Maybe you should check your spelling....
