paint that doesnt chip when you look at it.
consistent interior lighting. as mentioned before. red and blue would be a nice touch
better ride
mercedes benz has the blinkers set up if you just tap them they flash 3 times for your lane changes

Definately better interior lighting. The green dash is just killing me a little inside...everytime i see it im more and more tempted to do the LED light mod with 'em.
What really bugs me is the map lights vs the other lights on the side (reading lights?). Why are the map lights the typical halogen bulb color and the reading lights a nice white color!!
All 2IS's should have come with red tail lights too...the amber was a mistake.

So close but so far... IS250 needs this...
- 50hp more
- A transmission that isn't from a pickup truck (toyota used a getrag 6m in the supras)
- Better cup holders
- Slightly more supportive seats
- Less irritating TPMS systems (Batteries? wtf were they thinking?)
- Better pedal positioning (for heel toeing)
- Less fugly clock
- Unlocking sensors on all doors
- Better positioning of the 12v outlet in the glove box so it can close
- Proper paint
- Power folding mirrors
- Some F***ING FOLDING 60/40 REAR SEATS OMFG or at least a reasonably sized pass through FFS.

Power folding mirrors like the European models and also an auto up for the windows on the remote like the European models. But then again, the Europeans are probably asking for a AWD model.

Biggest dislike...
Elevated third brake light on rear self. Look out the rear view mirror and that's all I see. Any reason why it's elevated? Some aren't elevated as high. Also don't like the foot parking brake and seldom use it. Last item, cruise control. Takes some time to get the hang of it.

The elevated brake light is only on models with a rear spoiler. When I install my spoiler, I will not be moving my light.
I also prefer the handbrake, glad the M/T model comes with it.
As for the cruise control, what's the issue? I absolutely love the interface, Toyota's been using it for 20 years and it's fantastic.

TPM for each wheel/tire so I don't have to guess.
Better paint.
Engine that doesn't tic tic tic.
I have an 09' with a 10' rear view mirror but still get some mirror shaking with sunroof open
Everything else is perfect.

Thanks for the info. Still too high and it's too prominent in the rear view mirror. Looks goofy inside and out.Akward location. I previously had a Mazda6 with the cruise control buttons on the steering wheel.
