Looking to purchase a 2007/2008 is350. Does anyone know of any issues with this car? Would you recommend purchasing this model?

I can tell you that compared with very similar vehicles in its class, the 2IS is the top of the class! "Issues" with the 350 include recalls and TSIBs that are all very common, of which include the factory water pump, rear calipers seizing over time, minor interior noises, etc etc.

Yes! Definitely get the 350 model...it seems to have fewer issues than the 250 model, since the 350 has both direct and port fuel injection. The 250 only has direct injection and can be prone to carbon build-up issues.

Send us a link to the car you're looking at, and we can give you an opinion on what you're looking at.

Side-note, if you sign up at Lexus.com for an account you can input a VIN as your own ride and then view the entire vehicle service history of the car.

GL!
